Hackney Diamonds (CD)
The Rolling Stones
Amoeba Review
It's here: the first new Rolling Stones since 2005's A Bigger Bang. Hackney Diamonds shows why the Stones are still one of the biggest and best bands in the world. These blues and gospel-tinged rock tracks are epic enough for stadiums with enough grit and soul to keep them true to the spirit of down-and-dirty rock 'n' roll. The album features guest turns by Paul McCartney, Elton John, Lady Gaga, Stevie Wonder, and Bill Wyman, plus contributions from late, great drummer Charlie Watts. Hackney Diamonds is fierce and fun, an excellent showcase for a legendary band that shows zero signs of slowing down or getting boring.
