- The Summer Of '89
Hi,
This album is the greatest album in my collection and will probably go down as my favourite album ever !
I was 16yrs old and had my first job after leaving School. With my first pay packet I rushed out to buy this album after hearing so much hype about them. I had seen them on Rapido and also some heard some airplay on the radio and I really liked the sound. I bought the album and the rest was history. If the Beatles & The Stones moulded the 60's The Stones Roses moulded the whole Madchester Indie scene and dominated it with this masterpiece. I love this album as it has everything and reminds me of being young and the sun shining all the time ! Me and my mates would drive around in our old cars and go to the beach watching ... Read More:

- Majestic
If I could have just one album in my collection, this would be it. It was my generation's Revolver. It's incisive, celebratory and everything that a good album should be.

Listening to it made me believe that anything in life was possible and a whole world of opportunities were there for the taking. I wasn't alone in playing it on my battered stereo every day for a good two years.

For me it's always been more than a record. It's a life affirming piece of art that will never be bettered.

- Come with me to a place no eyes have ever seen
To refer to The Stone Roses' eponymous masterpiece as "an album" is almost belittling. A genuine "work of art", an important slice of musical history, legend and folklore; the catalyst for untold numbers to form bands, listen and understand; these 48 minutes and so-many seconds of melodious magic have become, for many, more of a spiritual experience than "an album".

From the first listen to the 1000th and beyond, who can hear the creeping bass of the intro to "I Wanna Be Adored" without the hairs on the back of their neck standing on end?

Ian Brown's vocals ooze an effortless cool unmatched before or after, casually creating fantastic imagery and delivering lines with a belief that lifts them above arrogance ("kiss me ... Read More:

- definite must for a music collection
I was aware of The Stone Roses as a teenager growing up in the 80s but it was only in my 20s that I bothered really listening to them and I'm glad I did. I think this is an essential album for any indie (?) collection. Favourite song? Well the first or the last although all in between are pretty listenable to!

Rating:

- hugely overrated.
one of the most overrated albums ever, not much that's memorable about it, good impression of jangly Byrds style 60's pop, couple of good songs, lots of attitude, nothing much more.
