The Rolling Stones

One of the world's most famous symbols of a band - the ruby red tongue and lips of the Rolling Stones - was inspired by the Indian goddess Kali, Mick Jagger has told Indian media.

Britain's Victoria and Albert Museum, which holds the original artwork in its collections, calls it "one of the world's most instantly recognizable symbols of rock and roll."

The Rolling Stones will release their first album of new music in 18 years next month, lead singer Mick Jagger, fellow founding bandmate Keith Richards and bass guitarist Ronnie Wood announced on Sept. 6 in London.

The album, "Hackney Diamonds," is the first since the death of drummer Charlie Watts in 2019, and the first containing original material since 2005's "A Bigger Bang."

Mick Jagger once sang "what a drag it is getting old" but the most senior swinger in town shows little sign of slowing down as he turns 80 tomorrow.

The Rolling Stones frontman is still strutting and gyrating in front of packed-out arenas, most recently touring Europe to mark the band's 60th anniversary.

The Rolling Stones wrapped up their 60th-anniversary tour on Aug. 3 in Germany with an emotional tribute to late drummer Charlie Watts.

The legendary British band had opened their European tour with a gig in Madrid on June 1 to mark six decades since they were formed.
