The Rolling Stones have unveiled the details of their next album, ‘Shine A Light’, to be released by Universal Music / Polydor. The album is from the Martin Scorsese-directed concert film ‘Shine A Light’ and will be released simultaneously with the movie.

From the unmistakeable opening riff of ‘Jumping Jack Flash’ to the classic sounds of Tumbling Dice, Sympathy For The Devil, All Down The Line and Start Me Up plus some unusual gems from the Stones catalogue - ‘You Got The Silver’ and ‘Faraway Eyes’ - ‘Shine A Light’ will be released on 7 April 2008. Included are three stunning collaborations - with blues legend Buddy Guy on ‘Champagne and Reefer’, Jack White from White Stripes on ‘Loving Cup’ while Christina Aguilera duets with Mick Jagger on ‘Live With Me’.

‘Shine A Light’ will be released on double CD worldwide with a single disc version available in the US.
