Synopsis

Manchester s Stone Roses woke up a stagnant late-Eighties music scene with an eponymous debut album of danceable rock that set the charts ablaze and remains a fixture in critics lists today. The world went mad for them but legal hassles, family responsibilities, and personal problems ensured it was downhill from then on. Yet though Ian Brown, John Squire, and Mani Mounfield remain powerful forces in British rock today, the question on most fans lips remains: will there ever be a second coming? QUOTES INCLUDE: "Some songs on Second Coming were on the third or even fourth recorded versions; things were lying around on master tapes from the first week of recording and we were going There s no drive there, there s no immediacy". JOHN SQUIRE (1997) "Silvertone signed us for 35 years, we d have only got 10 for armed robbery." THE STONE ROSES (1990) "Having spent the last 10 years in the filthiest business in the universe, it s a pleasure to announce the end of the ! Stone Roses. God bless all who gave us their love and supported us. Special thanks to the people of Manchester, who sent us on our way. Peace be upon you." IAN BROWN (1996)
