The Rolling Stones are previewing a video for their version of the Little Walter classic, “Hate To See You Go”, from their forthcoming blues covers album, “Blue & Lonesome.”
Alongside “I Gotta Go”, it’s one of two tracks from the late Louisiana musician featured on the Stones first studio album in more than decade.
Featuring footage from the recording studio, the full video will be released on November 8.
Due December 2, “Blue & Lonesome” was recorded over three days in December last year at British Grove Studios in West London and was produced by Don Was, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
The group played live in the studio without overdubs and were joined on two tunes by Eric Clapton, who happened to be in the next studio making his own record.
“This album is manifest testament to the purity of their love for making music,” says Was, “and the blues is, for the Stones, the fountainhead of everything they do.”
