The Rolling Stones' Modest Debut: A Lesson in Music Industry Evolution The Rolling Stones' latest album, Foreign Tongues, has made a respectable if unremarkable entrance onto the UK iTunes chart. It holds the No.
2 slot behind Madonna's updated Confessions II release, indicating that even the most enduring rock bands must now contend with the whims of pop superstardom.
This development represents a seismic shift in the music industry's landscape. In the past, a band like the Rolling Stones would have been all but guaranteed a No. 1 spot upon releasing an album.
