Hackney Diamonds (Jewel Case CD)

Hackney Diamonds is The Rolling Stones' first studio set of new material since 2005's A Bigger Bang. Since then, the Stones have continued to smash box office records for fun on a series of global sellout tours and released 2016's Grammy Award winning 'Blue & Lonesome', which featured their brilliant versions of many of the blues tracks that helped shape their sound, and topped album charts around the world. Last year, they thrilled European audiences totalling nearly a quarter of a million on the anniversary Sixty tour.

Hackney Diamonds marks the band's first collaboration with New York-born producer and musician Andrew Watt, who was named Producer of the Year at the 2021 Grammy Awards and has worked with Pearl Jam, Iggy Pop and Elton John.

Late drummer Charlie Watts features on two tracks, 'Mess It Up' and 'Live By The Sword'. 'Live By The Sword' additionally features bass from former Stones bassist Bill Wyman. 'Sweet Sounds Of Heaven' featuring vocals from Lady Gaga and keys & piano from Stevie Wonder, 'Bite My Head Off' with bass from Paul McCartney, and 'Get Close' and 'Live By The Sword' with piano from Elton John.
