Rolling Stones "blue and lonesome"

Rolling Stones "blue and lonesome"

Spotify listen:

a collection of covers from Mick,Keith and Co....
all songs hail back to ones they performed live back in their
early days in the clubs and pubs of London...
theyre all old blues songs, I don't know the originals because
im not a big blues fan some some of this album is pretty good IMO...
the sound of the album via Spotify sounds slightly distorted and fuzzy,
sort of like what an old vinyl album sounds like after all the decades of
wear and tear, im assuming its a deliberate ploy by the band as they delve
as far back as the 1940s with these covers...
as much as I don't like covers albums on the whole I cant knock the band
for doing this album because they've earned the right to record anything they
choose to record at this stage of their career, and why not?,
just about every other rock icon has recorded a covers set over the last
decade and a half!
ive already posted the lead off single from the album so the latest
single to be lifted off it.

from the album:

"BTO....Bachman,Turner,Overweight
They were big in the 70s....for five minutes,on a Saturday,after lunch..."  -  Me 2014.

Watched the Keith Richards doc Under The Influence recently. Very obvious that the Stones were directly under the influence of the original blues masters!
 The ultimate connection is between a performer and its' audience!

Keith has been under the influence of many things....
