Stones plan new album

KEITH Richards has disclosed that The Rolling Stones are working on a new album after a picture showed leading British rapper Skepta in the studio with the rock legends.

The septuagenarian rockers – after more than a decade full of mega-concerts but without a new studio release – in December put out an album of blues covers, Blue and Lonesome.

Richards, asked in a YouTube forum for fans if the Stones planned another album, said: “Yeah, in fact we are, very, very shortly. Cutting some new stuff and wondering where to take it next.”
