The Rolling Stones have offered up a preview of Sweet Sounds Of Heaven, their new collaborative single with Lady Gaga and Stevie Wonder.
Lifted from the group’s 24th album ‘Hackney Diamonds’ – their first original LP in 18 years – the teaser follows the release of lead single Angry.
One of a handful of collaborations on the record – which also includes contributions from Paul McCartney, Elton John and former Rolling Stones bassist Bill Wyman – check out a snippet of the song below.

Due October 20, the LP was recorded in various locations around the world – including Los Angeles, London, the Bahamas and New York – and is their first set of new material since 2005’s ‘A Bigger Bang’.
Since then, the Stones have continued to smash box office records with a series of global sellout tours and released 2016’s Grammy-winning ‘Blue & Lonesome’, featuring renditions of many of the blues tracks that helped shape their sound.
Last year, they thrilled European audiences totalling nearly a quarter of a million on the anniversary ‘Sixty Tour’.
‘Hackney Diamonds’ is preceded by the exhilarating lead single Angry, accompanied by a music video directed by Francois Rousselet and starring Sydney Sweeney.
The bespoke artwork for Hackney Diamonds is by digital animator Paulina Almira.
