Turns Into Stone

Turns into Stone is a compilation album by the English rock band the Stone Roses, released in 1992. It consists of singles and B-sides that did not feature on their self-titled debut album. The compilation reached number 32 on the UK Albums Chart. The album's release was surrounded by controversy, as the Roses were in the middle of a legal battle with their then-record label, Silvertone. An injunction prevented the band from releasing any new material for several years afterward, during which Silvertone released several singles without the band's consent, including two alternate versions of "Fools Gold", along with tracks from the first album that the band had never intended to be singles. Despite this, the album is seen in a positive light by Roses fans because it collects the extended versions of many of their best-known non-album songs onto one CD, before a best-of compilation was even available. The title of the album is taken from the final lines of "One Love": "What goes up must come down/Turns into dust or turns into stone".
