Paul McCartney played bass on the song "Covered In You" for the Rolling Stones' new studio album, "Foreign Tongues" [1].
This collaboration brings together two of the most influential forces in rock history. The partnership marks a rare studio intersection between a surviving member of the Beatles and the enduring lineup of the Stones.
The new record, "Foreign Tongues," serves as the 25th studio album for the Rolling Stones [2]. It features 12 new compositions [3]. McCartney's contribution is limited to one specific track, "Covered In You" [1].
Ronnie Wood said the partnership was a "dream come true for Paul to collaborate with us" [4]. The process of integrating the legendary bassist into the session was seamless, according to the band's leadership.
Mick Jagger said working with Paul McCartney on the new Rolling Stones album was "very easy" [5].
The collaboration highlights the continued creative output of the rock era's pioneers. While McCartney is primarily known for his work with the Fab Four, his appearance on the bass for the Stones adds a distinct sonic layer to the project.
“"Working with Paul McCartney on the new Rolling Stones album was very easy."”
This collaboration serves as a symbolic bridge between the two pillars of the 1960s British Invasion. By featuring McCartney on their 25th studio album, the Rolling Stones are not only expanding their sonic palette but also cementing a historical link between the Beatles' melodic sensibility and the Stones' grit, appealing to a multi-generational audience of rock enthusiasts.
