The Rolling Stones are set to release a compilation of the blues music that has inspired them throughout their career. The unstoppable rock band have joined forces with BMG and Universal to put together their favourite cuts,  which has resulted in ‘Confessin’ The Blues’. The curated 42 track double-disc record will be released on November 9th. A full track listing and promo for the mega comp is available below.

One of the most noteworthy tracks is Muddy Waters' 'Rollin'Stone' which gave rise to the band's moniker in the 1960s. Singer Mick Jagger spoke of his early love for the genre: 'The first Muddy Waters album that was really popular was Muddy Waters at Newport, which was the first album I ever bought'.

Also featured on the blues compilation are the likes of B.B King, Chuck Berry, Eddie Taylor, Jimmy Reed and a lot more. Speaking about the blues' influence on music, Keith Richards said, 'If you don’t know the blues… there’s no point in picking up the guitar and playing rock and roll or any other form of popular music.' Stones guitarist Ronnie Wood created the artwork for the release which 'depicts the raw passion and emotion the blues artists channelled into their music'.
