Mick Jagger delivers his best performances when clad in a black T-shirt, as witnessed in a recent show. The Rolling Stones have unveiled a podcast series to promote their upcoming album “Foreign Tongues.” Producer Andrew Watt shared insights on the album’s creation process, highlighting Jagger’s transformation when donning the iconic black tee.

Jagger emphasized the band’s newfound efficiency in working on albums like “Foreign Tongues” and their previous release, “Hackney Diamonds.” By adopting a strategy of short studio bursts, producer Watt streamlined the recording process, allowing for quicker album production.

In a forthcoming podcast episode, Robert Smith of The Cure discusses his unexpected involvement in the album after a casual meeting with Watt. Jagger was impressed by Smith’s contributions to tracks like “Divine Interventions” and “Never Wanna Lose You.”

With a track record of eight Number 1 singles and twelve Number 1 albums, The Rolling Stones are gearing up for the release of “Foreign Tongues” on July 10. Despite their past successes and a recent Grammy win, the band has no immediate touring plans, with Keith Richards hinting at a possible residency instead of extensive tours due to the toll of constant travel.

Jagger expressed his enthusiasm for live performances, emphasizing his passion for big shows. While tour plans remain uncertain, the band looks forward to exploring alternative performance formats. The Rolling Stones’ podcast, “Rolling Stones: Speaking In Tongues,” is now available for fans to enjoy.
