Rolling Stones Release Courtney Pine Collaboration on New Single

The Rolling Stones have released a new single, "Who You Callin’ Crazy," featuring British jazz saxophonist Courtney Pine, as a preview of the expanded edition of their 2026 album Foreign Tongues. The track arrived on October 20 and combines the band's established rock sound with prominent saxophone arrangements ahead of the expanded release scheduled for November 27 through Polydor and Universal Music.

The upcoming collection, titled Foreign Tongues Loose Lips, contains five previously unreleased recordings from the sessions surrounding the original album. It will be available on vinyl, double CD and digital platforms, according to the announcements reported by NME and uDiscoverMusic.

The additional tracks are "Who You Callin’ Crazy," "Where There’s A Will," "Human Tide," "Bad Luck Hideaway" and "She Still Comes Around." The recording "Where There’s A Will" features Steve Winwood on organ, while "Bad Luck Hideaway" includes vocals from Mick Jagger and Keith Richards alongside drums by the late Charlie Watts.

The Rolling Stones released Foreign Tongues on July 10, 2026. According to uDiscoverMusic, the 14-track album reached No. 1 in 14 countries and followed Hackney Diamonds, the band's Grammy Award-winning, multi-platinum release.

On the new single, Jagger handles vocals, while Richards and Ronnie Wood contribute electric guitars. The wider recording lineup includes Steve Jordan on drums, Andrew Watt on bass and tambourine, and Matt Clifford on piano, organ and Rhodes. Pine provides the saxophone.

Jagger and Richards wrote the track, with Watt serving as producer and Clifford handling pre-production. Paul LaMalfa, Watt and Marco Sonzini engineered the recording, Serban Ghenea mixed it at MixStar Studios in Virginia Beach, Virginia, and Randy Merrill mastered it at Sterling Sound in Edgewater, New Jersey, according to the credits published by That Eric Alper.

Pine's appearance connects the recording to the band's longstanding use of saxophone and influences drawn from jazz, blues, soul and rhythm and blues. Bobby Keys was among the musicians who helped establish the instrument's prominent place in the Rolling Stones' recordings, including on Brown Sugar and Can’t You Hear Me Knocking.

A review published by Cult Following described the new track as more relaxed than some of the material on Foreign Tongues, highlighting its blues-influenced guitars, slower tempo and saxophone introduction. The review also characterized the song as a lighter addition to the band's recent recordings rather than a defining career highlight.

The release follows the earlier availability of Bad Luck Hideaway, which appeared online on October 16. NME reported that the song had previously been issued as a bonus track on an iTunes-exclusive edition of Foreign Tongues and later became available as the B-side to Mr Charm.

Jagger has also indicated that he continues to write music. In an interview with NME during the summer, he said he had "already started writing songs" again, although he acknowledged that some material could be intended for other performers rather than the Rolling Stones.

Guitarist Ronnie Wood has discussed the possibility of further live performances, including a potential appearance at Glastonbury in 2027. NME reported that Wood said he would accept such an opportunity "at the drop of a hat," while recognizing that other members of the band might not share his enthusiasm.

Foreign Tongues Loose Lips is scheduled for release on November 27, adding five recordings from the album's creative period to the Rolling Stones' latest studio-era catalogue.
