Jag hade missat att RS släppt nytt, jag hörde just "Plundered my soul" på VH1 AlbumChart. Jag blev väldigt positivt överraskad! Jag gillar låten skrarpt, Jaggers röst går inte att missta sig på.
Ser att Matt Clifford är nämnd ett par gånger. Är det en bror till Doug Clifford? (Creedence-trummisen)
Nej, Matt Clifford är britt och född sent 50 eller tidigt 60-tal.

MATT CLIFFORD
A synthesizer, keyboardist and arranger, Clifford was mostly playing with former Yes member Jon Anderson and his colleagues in the 1980s. The Stones hired him to play on Steel Wheels and he accompanied the band to Morocco where he conducted the Master Musicians of Jajouka for the song Continental Drift. He subsequently accompanied the band onstage, along with Chuck Leavell, for the following world tour. He appears on the 1991 live album and film from that tour. Mick hired him again for his Wandering Spirit solo album in 1993.
Since then Clifford has mostly worked with John Anderson again and Yes offshoot GTR. In 1994 he worked as an arranger on an album of symphonic music based on the Stones' songs. In 2001, Clifford was Mick's principal collaborator for his Goddess in the Doorway album, playing on every song except one, and arranging, co-writing and co-producing several tracks. He also appeared onstage with Mick at his November 2001 L.A. promotional concert.
Clifford makes his reappearance with the Stones on 2005's A Bigger Bang, playing on the songs Rain Fall Down and Streets of Love.
För den som vill titta på Stones resa till Marocko 1989 (och Matt Clifford) där man spelade in de marockanska musikerna, vars musik användes som bakgrund till 'Continental Drift', så har jag lagt ut BBC:s dokumentär på min YouTube-kanal:
