Even with the eternal gag surrounding the age and agelessness of The Rolling Stones, it's still kind of astonishing that this brand new studio album is arriving sixty years since they released their Chuck Berry-penned single Come On. But, the most incredible thing about the band's 24th album is not even them enlisting Elton John, Paul McCartney, Stevie Wonder, and Lady Gaga to help out, it's how good it is. Their lyrics are no better or worse than they ever were, but the rocking songs rock, the country weepers will get you where they need to, and it's got soul to spare. The faintest praise we can damn it with is that ... well, it sounds like The Rolling Stones! - Flying Out
