(via daethgod) strong rumour NEW STONES SINGLE "Living in a ghost town"
Apr 22^nd, 2020 at 10:49pm

amazing

just after i post the pandemic LA "ride em" vid

apparently the stones will (dylan-like) release a new single tomorrow

(check out iorr for details)

it may or may not be a cover of "ghost town" by the specials

but what's amazing is the specials vid has the exact same theme as
the ride em on down vid

i'm not a big dylan fan but "murder most foul" is my favorite
17 minutes in quarantine so far

followed closely by the stones 5-minute triumph at corona fest

i'm guessing "living in a ghost town" will be my new #1

Whether it's a big phat stinking ho axe or not (and it would be lovely if it weren't), there is (further?) good news in that Marianne F is out of hosp.
She probably saw the lovely 'You Can't Get Always'Get Whatt You Ponce...', on't telly and thought "F*ck it, nurses. Pack my Coro-Bag & baggage, darlings. I need some of that".

Happy day(s?).

Yeah, I had a winning hand and I overplayed it

In other words, Mick outfoxed me yet again

1) I was right that tour sales were not doing well

2) That's why I was right predicting it getting postponed

3) So I was right that's why Mick cooked up the heart stunt

4) But I was wrong that it would take a lot more than that to make the tour '
a success. I thought it would take months more of hype. But that one little
"this could be the last time" stunt was all it took to goose sales enough to hit
that magic $10 million a show average.

So as usual, hats off to Mick. Simply the best.

Its not a cover of the Specials song, I'm sure

More here

Granted, the story is by Paul Cashmere, the journalist who broke the 'world exclusive' about 12 years ago that Charlie was 'quitting the band' and then stuck to his guns after the Stones office denied it, but he does have a mostly decent track record, to be fair.

Excellent blend of R&B and reggae, with an atmospheric choral hook. Cries out for a dub version with extended instrumentals and sound effects. But, yes, a good sign, albeit one they had to be directed to by Bob Dylan.

I notice there's been a second Dylan release ("I Contain Multitudes"), so maybe we'll get a B-side to "Ghost Town."
