(hennemusic) The Rolling Stones have issued a video for their version of the Eddie Taylor classic "Ride 'Em On Down," from their newly-released blues covers album, "Blue & Lonesome."
Featuring actress Kristen Stewart of the "Twilight" film series, the clip delivers the tune the band previewed at the opening weekend of the recent Desert Trip festival in California, where they performed it live for the first time since 1962.
"Blue & Lonesome" was recorded over three days last December at British Grove Studios in West London and was produced by Don Was, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards.
The group played live in the studio without overdubs and were joined on two tunes by Eric Clapton, who happened to be in the next studio making his own record.
"This album is manifest testament to the purity of their love for making music," says Was, "and the blues is, for the Stones, the fountainhead of everything they do." Watch the video here.
