This offer arrived in my e-mail this morning from the Stones' online store:

"Voodoo Lounge
30th Anniversary Collection

This week marks 30 years since the release of 1994’s Voodoo Lounge, featuring singles ‘Love Is Strong’, ‘Fool To Cry’ and ‘Out Of Tears’. Order the iconic album on two new celebratory formats; red and yellow coloured 2LP vinyl, and red and yellow coloured 2LP vinyl with bonus 10” disc featuring single b-sides ‘I’m Gonna Drive’, ‘So Young’, ‘Jump On Top Of Me' and ‘The Storm’."

Has anyone else received this message today? Who edits these promos? I can't believe this could get as far as it did without anyone noticing.

Ride like the wind at double speed.....

Yes, it is “Stones’”, not “Stone’s”

Fool To Cry ?!?!

Hmmm....

Hmmm....

I suppose their copy of "Black and Blue" must contain "You Got Me Rocking".....lol

The "iconic album" comment?

I definetly buy the copy with fool to cry on it. Should be a rarity.

I read that email this morning and thought the same, how on earth does this get emailed to probably hundreds of thousands of email addresses without anyone with any knowledge of the band catching that.

Keith lives in the Bahamas.

I thought "Won't Get Fooled Again" was the best single off of VOODOO. Amazing keyboard work.

Because on that tour Mick said Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo was from BLACK AND BLUE.

Not making that up.

That's correct - except for this thread, which is about being wrong.

Not remembering which mediocre mid-70s album a tune is on 50 years after the fact, from a period when he was partying and wasted endlessly is not much of an error.

My apologies, BV. It was not intentional.

1994 New Orleans. Went with a friend - we loved it when the Stones mess up so there was a bit of a 1981 live boots mess ups I had collected. Naturally any mess up was golden music wise (when I got SPARKS WILL FLY I made him sit through Street Fighting Man and he was in tears - "WHAT are they DOING? They've played this song for centuries!!!") but we never anticipated such a gaff from Mick and we almost dropped our beers.
