The Rolling Stones Attend Crossfire Hurricane World Premiere

The Rolling Stones are leaning deeper into the instinctive guitar interplay between Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood on the upcoming album Foreign Tongues, with Ronnie Wood revealing that the same guitar used on Faces classic Stay With Me reappears on the new track Rough And Twisted, while Mick Jagger has detailed how Robert Smith of The Cure unexpectedly became part of the record.

The Rolling Stones return with Foreign Tongues, a 14-track studio album arriving July 10, featuring Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood alongside a final recording appearance from Charlie Watts and guest contributions from Paul McCartney, Steve Winwood, Robert Smith and Chad Smith.

Six decades after release, The Rolling Stones' Aftermath remains the album where the band first committed fully to original songwriting and expanded their sound beyond blues roots.

The Rolling Stones have quietly unveiled the new song ‘Rough And Twisted', issued under the alias The Cockroaches as a limited vinyl release that has triggered strong fan reaction around the world.

This week marks the 60th anniversary of one of The Rolling Stones' most important early works ‘Out of Our Heads’. First released in the US on 30 July 1965 and later in the UK on 24 September of the same year and confirmed the band's global arrival.

On September 5, 2005, The Rolling Stones unleashed A Bigger Bang, their 22nd British and 24th American studio album. Now, two decades on, the record has taken on the stature of being the band’s final large-scale studio statement, a return to raw, stripped-down rock and roll after years of experimentation, production sheen, and long gaps between releases.

Here are the major music events, births, deaths and album releases on this day in music for 24 August:
