The Rolling Stones released “Rough And Twisted” on April 11 as a vinyl-only white-label single credited to The Cockroaches. The vinyl was distributed only to a few select record stores and is already sold out. If anyone finds a link of the full song (mp3 / mp4), it’s very welcome here (or via message). 
Update: I found one. The sound quality is mediocre, but better than nothing.
