The Rolling Stones are streaming a preview of the July 9 release of an official video for the unreleased track, “Criss Cross.”
Based on numerous reports and existing unofficial audio online, the song was an outtake from sessions for the band’s 1973 album, “Goats Head Soup.”
Produced by Jimmy Miller, the project topped the charts around the world and delivered such Stones classic as “Angie”, “Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo (Heartbreaker)” and “Dancing with Mr. D.”
The record was the Stones fourth with guitarist Mick Taylor, who was added to the lineup in 1969 following the firing of founding member Brian Jones.
There’s no official word yet from the band as to the context for the song’s release, ie. standalone single, album reissue, etc; it follows the recent arrival of a new single, “Living In A Ghost Town”, which marked the group’s first original new music since “Doom And Gloom” and “One More Shot” were included in the 2012 compilation, “GRRR!”
