Bill Wyman, the Rolling Stones bass player from 1962 to 1993 has released an album of covers ‘Drive My Car’.
Bill has covered songs by Bob Dylan, Taj Mahal and John Prine on the record. Bill credits the “laid-back’ sound of the album to JJ Cale.
‘Drive My Car’ is the first Wyman album since ‘Back To Basics’ in 2015. His first solo album was ‘Monkey Grip’ in 1974, 19 years before he left The Stones.
