According to Variety, the former Beatles are recording tracks for an upcoming Rolling Stones album. Since the album is still unfinished, there was no word if the two former Beatles will be playing on the same song.

It’s not the first time the two groups have collaborated although it’s been decades since they first did so.

The Rolling Stones released “I Wanna Be Your Man,” which was written by John Lennon and McCartney, in 1963. The Stones then had The Beatles sing background vocals on their 1967 single “We Love You.”

The record is being produced by Grammy-winner Andrew Watt.

Liner notes

• Ed Sheeran will play Gillette Stadium in Foxborough June 30-July 1.

Ed Sheeran embarked on his first tour in 2011 after releasing his debut album “+.”

The record’s success caused Sheeran to tour for the next two years. He further propelled his career when he opened for Taylor Swift’s “Red” Tour in 2013, which allowed him to play in his biggest venues to date. Over the next few years, Sheeran would play two more headlining tours, as well as open for the Rolling Stones. Sheeran has performed more than 800 shows across three tours.

• Chris Stapleton will play the Xfinity Center in Mansfield on June 9-10. Stapleton, who just received rave reviews for his performance of “The Star-Spangled Banner” before Super Bowl LVII, has co-written six No. 1 country songs, won eight Grammy Awards, and captured the New Artist of the Year prize at the 2015 Country Music Association Awards. His songs have appeared on albums by numerous artists, including Adele, Kelly Clarkson, Brad Paisley, and Taylor Swift. He has also co-written with several notable artists, including Vince Gill, Peter Frampton, Sheryl Crow, and Ed Sheeran.
