ROLLING STONES: BLUE & LONESOME

Way back on October 6 of this past year, The Rolling Stones, announced that they would be releasing a 'new' album on December 2 entitled BLUE & LONESEOME. At that time, they released the cover art for their collection of new music shown below.



I am proposing that if they had been a bit more politically incorrect, but certainly politically accurate...They could have used the 2016 United States Presidential Election Results Map by County as their album cover as shown below.

BLUE & LONESOME


To live in loser blue county (Hillary Clinton) among this vast sea of winning red counties (Donald Trump) would easily make one blue & lonesome. I live in Chicago, which is part of Cook County, and politically speaking, I do often feel lonely. In the aftermath of the Presidential Election which was still less than two weeks ago... I am definitely not feeling blue.

here is the original October 6th press release announcing Blue & Lonesome

THE ROLLING STONES ANNOUNCE THEIR RETURN TO THE BLUES WITH NEW ALBUM ‘BLUE & LONESOME’ OUT ON DECEMBER 2
Five decades in the making and just three days to record
On 2nd December 2016The Rolling Stones will release Blue & Lonesome, their first studio album in over a decade. Recorded in just three days in London, England, ‘Blue & Lonesome’ takes the band back to their roots and the passion for blues music which has always been at the heart and soul of The Rolling Stones.
‘Blue & Lonesome’ is available in various formats and will be released on December 2nd by Polydor Records. It was produced by Don Was and The Glimmer Twins and is available for pre-order worldwide from today, October 6th, at 9am EST in the USA and 2pm in the UK (equivalent times worldwide), go to rollingstones.com/blueandlonesome.
The album was recorded over the course of just three days in December last year at British Grove Studios in West London, just a stone’s throw from Richmond and Eel Pie Island where the Stones started out as a young blues band playing pubs and clubs.
Their approach to the album was that it should be spontaneous and played live in the studio without overdubs. The band – Mick Jagger (vocals & harp), Keith Richards (guitar), Charlie Watts (drums), and Ronnie Wood (guitar) were joined by their long time touring sidemen Darryl Jones (bass), Chuck Leavell (keyboards) and Matt Clifford (keyboards) and, for two of the twelve tracks, by old friend Eric Clapton, who happened to be in the next studio making his own album.
‘Blue & Lonesome’ sees the Rolling Stones tipping their hats to their early days as a blues band when they played the music of Jimmy Reed, Willie Dixon, Eddie Taylor, Little Walter and Howlin’ Wolf – artists whose songs are featured on this album.
The tracks are – Just Your Fool, Commit A Crime, Blue and Lonesome, All Of Your Love, I Gotta Go, Everybody Knows About My Good Thing, Ride ‘Em On Down, Hate To See You Go, Hoo Doo Blues, Little Rain, Just Like I Treat You, I Can’t Quit You Baby.
