Variety has heard from “multiple sources” that Beatles member Paul McCartney “has record bass parts” for an upcoming Stones album that is also set to feature Ringo Starr.
Variety repeatedly underlines the fact that nobody knows if the work done by McCartney and Starr will make the final cut or if they’ll be heard on the same song, but the album in question is at least “nearing the mixing phase” and, theoretically, shouldn’t be too far off.
Assuming McCartney and Starr are on the final album, we’d guess that it will just be a fun behind the scenes thing and not a canonical crossover between the two groups, since Variety’s sources did just hear that McCartney was playing bass and not doing, you know, singing or songwriting or anything.
Another thing to listen for on this album, whenever it happens, is some posthumous music from drummer Charlie Watts—who died in 2021.
Variety says that he at least recorded his drum parts for “a number of songs” before his death, which Keith Richards has also apparently confirmed separately.
