The Rolling Stones are poised to unveil five fresh tracks as part of Foreign Tongues, Loose Lips, the deluxe edition of their chart-topping album.
Scheduled for release on November 27, the expanded collection includes Where There’s A Will, Who You Callin’ Crazy featuring jazz saxophonist Courtney Pine, Human Tide, Bad Luck Hideaway, a Mick Jagger and Keith Richards duet featuring the late Charlie Watts on drums, and She Still Comes Around.
Bad Luck Hideaway had previously appeared as a bonus track on the iTunes-exclusive edition of Foreign Tongues, and later appeared as the B-side to a new streaming single release of Mr. Charm. Who You Callin’ Crazy will also be accessible on streaming platforms on Friday (16.10.26).
Fans of the iconic rock group can opt for a stand‑alone vinyl edition or the deluxe two‑CD package.
Foreign Tongues, issued in July, topped the charts in 14 countries.
Courtney Pine, who played on Sir Mick Jagger’s 1993 solo effort Wandering Spirit, recently hinted that he had been in the studio with the Start Me Up singer again.
During an appearance on BBC Radio 3’s Private Passions on Sunday (11.10.26), Pine said: “I’ve just done another session with him for The Rolling Stones a couple of weeks ago.”
Praising the music legend, he added: “Mick is an extraordinary artist. The whole pop realm is entirely different from anything I’m used to.”
Reflecting on past work with Mick, he recalled: “I played on one version of Mick Jagger’s solo album, they discarded it, and then I got a call saying, ‘Can I fly out to LA tomorrow to play on another take of the same project?’ Mick Jagger? Of course!”
In June, Mick revealed he was drafting new tunes that could either appear with the Stones or end up with other artists. Asked by NME whether there’s another album in him after this summer’s Foreign Tongues, he replied: “Yes, it could be a trio [of records]… I’ve already started writing material anyway. Some of it might suit other people—perhaps the Red Hot Chili Peppers or someone else.”
He continued: “I’m very open-minded about it. I’ve got a lot of material, and not all of it suits The Rolling Stones. It shouldn’t stop me from writing them, you know. If inspiration strikes, you simply write it down.”
While new music from the Stones remains a possibility, touring presents a different issue entirely. Keith Richards currently isn’t keen on resuming live performances.
In a recent interview, bassist and guitarist Ronnie Wood explained that he and Mick are eager to hit the stage again, but the lead guitarist isn’t pushing for the band to return just yet.
He told NME: “I know Mick is itching to go, and Keith isn’t ready to go. You’ve got to have everyone’s enthusiasm to do it.”
Ronnie stressed that he’ll rejoin the Stones as soon as the group decide to move forward, but for the moment there are no concrete plans: “When my friends say, ‘Let’s go,’ I’ll be ready. I don’t have plans yet, though.”
