-star run-ins have become relatively commonplace for Watt — but the 32-year-old and 2021 producer of the year Grammy winner, who wore a different Rolling Stones T-shirt every day to the studio while producing the band’s forthcoming album,be jumping up and down with excitement,” he says of watching Jagger work his magic, “because that’s what we’ve all been trained to do for the last 60 years.
When it came to the Stones, “Any fan wants to hear the greatest live rock’n’roll band of all time,” Watt explains, “so to do anything else with them in the studio is just letting everyone down.” When preproduction forbegan in September 2022, Watt pushed the band to work efficiently and made sure to prioritize its live energy, particularly within the interplay between Richards and Ronnie Wood.
Session locations ranged from Los Angeles to Paris; Steve Jordan took over the drum kit from Charlie Watts, who died in 2021 but is posthumously featured on two tracks carried over from earlier sessions; and Lady Gaga, Paul McCartney and Stevie Wonder were among the guest stars to swing by.
