Rolling Stones released another music video to their comeback album "Blue and Lonesome" starring an exhilarating Kristin Stewart for cover track "Ride 'Em On Down."
In a series of firsts, the "Blue and Lonesome" album is the first studio release since the group's "A Bigger Bang" in 2005, a whopping 11 years ago. It is also the first album to feature only cover songs such as "Hate To See You Go" and "Just Your Fool."
Little Walter's "Hate to See You Go" was the first cover song that was released last November along with a music video showing the band members playing. A few days ago, Eddie Taylor's "Ride 'Em On Down" was the next video and track to be released.
Listen to the original version below.
This particular cover by the Stones stars Kristen Stewart ("Twilight Saga," "Clouds of Sils Maria") and a blue Ford Mustand. The video depicts the actress driving zealously around the streets and roads of an abandoned and maybe even a post-apocalyptic Los Angeles.
No other inhabitants or survivors can be seen aside from Stewart and a man who asks her for where she got her gas from. Other notable scenes include Stewart dancing in a gas station, smoking, and sucking on a blue lollipop in reference to the album's cover art.
The video was directed by Francois Rousselet and took over two days to film, according to Rolling Stone magazine.
"Blue and Lonesome" covers other songs from celebrated artists such as Howlin' Wolf and Billy Johnson. In an interview by Rolling Stone, the band shared that cover album was a product of the group trying to break in and get comfortable Mark Knopfler's alien British Grove Studios in West London.
So far, the reception to the music video has been positive with fans praising the thrilling car scene and Stewart herself.
