The L.A. Times ran the following correction on Wednesday:
“A caption with a photograph in Sunday’s Calendar section of the Staples Singers performing a 1972 concert said Mavis Staples was on the left. She was on the right.”

This is the sort of photographic misidentification I find hardest to forgive... when it’s attached to a nice, long story about that person.
The “Where's Waldo?” aspect also sucks. I mean, the real Mavis was in there somewhere. Just took ’em two tries to point her out.
Oh well...
