The Rolling Stones played over 40 shows. Starting in September 2017 and ending the American stage of the tour in August of this year.
The long-awaited album would be the twenty-fourth British and twenty-sixth American in the career of the legendary rock and roll band and the first ever since A Bigger Bang, released in 2005.
The band have released 30 studio albums, 23 live albums and numerous compilations. Their estimated record sales are above 250 million and ranked 10th on the Billboard Hot 100 All-Time Top Artists chart
