The Rolling Stones' New Album Is Inspired By Their Legendary Toronto Shows at El Mocambo in 1977

In a new interview, Ronnie Wood says he associates his start in the band with their secret shows at the venue, a wild era that inspired the band's new album Foreign Tongues. A new single from the album is slated for June 26.

The Rolling Stones are throwing it back to their early days in Toronto.

In a new interview with the Canadian Press, the legendary band's guitarist Ronnie Wood reveals that the Rolling Stones' forthcoming album Foreign Tongues, set for release on July 10, is largely inspired by the period in which the band played its legendary shows at El Mocambo in Toronto in 1977.
