Hey guys, Willie Geist here with another episode of the Sunday Sit Down podcast. My thanks as always for clicking and listening along. Man, do I have a big one for you today? I think we can agree. I think it's fair to say. He is the biggest rock star of them all, a true music icon. Mick Jagger.

Mick and I got together in New York to talk about the Stone's new album. It's called Foreign T tongues.

Full disclosure, I've been a Stones fan since I was a kid. I grew up in a Stone's house, my dad and my mom, my

uncles. Everybody listened to the Rolling Stones.

I've been in C. Mick a bunch of times from a young age to recently. And so every once in a while,

you get to meet some incredible people in this job and sit across from and have long conversations

with people you've looked up to and admired. But this just feels like

something else. I mean, Mick Jagger, to me, lived on some different planet, and there he was

sitting across from me. We had a great conversation about this new album, Foreign Tongues,

but also about the band, the history of the band. They put some drums on this new album from Charlie

Watts, the late great Charlie Watts, who died in 2021. They put some drums on this new album from Charlie Watts, the late great Charlie Watts,

who died in 2021. They had some recorded drums that they put onto a song. Paul McCartney

plays bass on this album. So we talk about the old Stones, Beatles rivalry from the 60s. And then we

talk about some of his favorite albums. Obviously, these are difficult decisions to make, but they had a run there in the late 60s, early 70s of what many people, critics say, are some of the four or five best albums of all time. And they all came from the Stones in about three and a half years. So we talk about that, talk about whether or not we're going to see the Stones touring again, back out on the road. A great conversation. He and I

just sitting in a hotel room with a bunch of people standing around us doing this interview.

I don't really need to say much more to introduce Mick Jagger, do I? So let's get right to it.

Mick Jagger on the Sunday Sit Down podcast. Mick, thank you for doing this.

Nice to see you. Great to see you as well. Congratulations on the album, Foreign Tongues.

Thank you. By my math, this is your 27th U.S. album of original material. Do you still get that

thrill or those nerves or whatever the emotions are on the eve of an

album release?

Yeah.
