And after sixty years of history, these two groups turned into musical icons of the 20th century have not lost popularity, nor validity, being considered cultural references that changed the entertainment industry.
It is for this reason that a collaboration between “The biggest band in the world” and the two emblematic survivors of the fab four, carries an epic display and a certain farewell to an era in rock history. It is estimated that the future album of the group led by Mick Jagger, Keith Richards and Ron Wood It will be released in mid-2023.

The American weekly also confirmed the vocal participation of the drummer Ringo Starr in the study. One of the most relevant data of the new album is that it will have the unpublished interpretations of charlie wattswho died last year in his eighth decade of life.

He has also left his recording mark in the field of pop, producing Justin Bieber, Dua Lipa or Miley Cyrus. “I went to have a cup of tea and of course we ended up making a song,” the Beatles vocalist declared at the time about his meeting with the producer in 2021.

Despite their long relationship and rivalry, the members of the Beatles and the Rolling Stones have rarely collaborated musically. The Londoners’ first hit was a version “I Wanna Be Your Man” from 1963, made up of the duo from Liverpool, Lennon-McCartney.
In 1967 it was probably the high point in the relations between the Beatles and the Stones, with the wink on the covers of their albums released that year, “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band” and “Their Satanic Majesties Request.” In November 1968, Lennon and Yoko Ono they performed two songs for the television concert special “The Rolling Stones’ Rock and Roll Circus” as part of a unique supergroup that also included Richards on bass, Clapton on lead guitar and Jimi Hendrix Experience drummer Mitch Mitchell
