About this item

Originally released in 1992 (as a single LP), 'Turns Into Stone' pulled together many of the Stone Roses finest non album tracks - early singles, B-sides and extended versions – into one compelling collection.

It begins with their first release from their ultimately turbulent tenure at Silvertone Records, ‘Elephant Stone’ and includes perhaps the bands finest moment, ‘Fools Gold.’ An essential companion to their timeless debut album, like the latter it contains some of best British guitar-driven pop/rock of the era, here spread over four sides of vinyl, the better to showcase the stretched-out grooves that helped them to become, for a time, probably the most exciting and influential band in the country.

STAFF COMMENTS

Barry says: More Stone Roses is never a bad thing, and you KNOW it's good if McQueen has the track as his ringtone (Elephant Stone). I've seen this a few times in my years in the shoppe, but not for a bit. Bangers.
