About "Driving Too Fast"
From the original Rolling Stones Album "A Bigger Bang" (5 September 2005)
A Bigger Bang was largely recorded in Mick Jagger's house in France, similar to the creation of Exile on Main St. in Keith Richards' house in the same country in 1971. Jagger and Richards also worked on it in 2004 with producer Don Was at Jagger's residence in the Caribbean. Charlie Watts later attended the sessions and was reported to be in excellent health after being treated for throat cancer. Darryl Jones played bass, and four tracks again featured the piano work of Chuck Leavell.
The album features a more basic, stripped-down style reminiscent of Some Girls, but with a harder, more contemporary edge. Many of these songs were recorded with just the core band of Richards, Jagger, and Watts. Ronnie Wood was absent from some of the sessions, playing on only ten of the sixteen tracks, with only very occasional contributions from outside musicians comprising the recording of the album.
Although initial reports stated that the Stones had "returned to their roots" with the record, the minimal instrumentation, rough mix, and tough blues and "garage" rock hybrid bear certain similarities to the aesthetic of contemporary artists like The White Stripes and The Black Keys, which would indicate that the Stones are still, as they have always been, in touch with modern trends in popular music.
Critical reaction was positive. A Bigger Bang was touted as the best Rolling Stones album since 1981's Tattoo You and found the band in a revitalized state. Nevertheless, all of the Stones albums since 1989's Steel Wheels had been similarly lauded, and many critics and fans felt that the Stones had yet to record a late-period album truly up to their high standards, though the rock-oriented nature of the record certainly appeased the Stones' loyal fanbase.
