The Rolling Stones aren't done with Foreign Tongues yet. The album dropped in July, another entry in a late-career run that keeps outclassing what anyone expects from a band this deep in. Now they're sharing "Bad Luck Hideaway," a strutting Mick and Keith duet that didn't make the standard tracklist. It lived as a bonus cut on digital editions, but it wasn't on streaming until now.
Here's the moment: this is one of the tracks the Stones cut with Charlie Watts before he passed in 2021. You can feel him holding it down. His pocket was always the quiet engine behind everything from "Gimme Shelter" to "Start Me Up," and that same unshowy swing carries this belter.
There's a music video too, with Alexander Skarsgård along for the ride. It's a strange, fun addition to an album that already proved these guys have plenty left.
A gem recovered from the vault, with Charlie on the kit one more time. That's worth your attention.
