Watch the build-up to the Stones’ latest album.

At the end of last month, The Rolling Stones topped the album charts for the 14th time with Hackney Diamonds.

It marked their first collection of new material in 18 years, after 2005’s A Bigger Bang.

It was also the first album for Mick Jagger, Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards without drummer Charlie Watts, who died in 2021.

Counting reissues, greatest hits and live albums, the band now stands alongside Robbie Williams with a total of 14 number-one albums – just behind The Beatles with 16.

Speaking ahead of the albums release at an event in Hackney, hosted by comedian Jimmy Fallon, Sir Mick shared his excitement about the record.

“I don’t want to be big-headed but we wouldn’t have put this album out if we hadn’t really liked it,” he told the audience.

“We said we had to make a record we really love ourselves. We are quite pleased with it, we are not big-headed about it, but we hope you all like it.”
