sailaway Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 As much of a cock that Brown is...this was, and is, one of the best bands of all time. The difference is, Ian Brown didn't come out 10 years later with only himself (amd 4 session players) and calling the act 'The Stone Roses'. Some people know the concept of dignity....Axl Rose, his scabs, and a lot of his younger followers have no grasp of such concept...Scabs?? Go away Steven Adler!!

sailaway Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Two bands feted as the best of their generation. Both with a debut album that will be forever thought of as one of the all time greats. Both had a long time away and came back with an album that was drastically different from their previous work that was effectively a solo work by a single member. Both of whom had an effective split and came back after more than a decade. Difference being that one was the fastest selling concerts in UK history and are still held in high critical regard and the other, though still amazing, aren't. One question. Why?Also listen to this and tell me you wouldn't like to hear John Squire play something with Axl? Solo from about 4 minutes in. Insightful post Dazey,I have always held the stone roses in high regard and can definately see the parrallels mentioned.They had the tightest fucking rhythm section, no doubt fuelled by their amazing drummer.And Yeah,I'd love to hear a duo/combined effort from these two legends.Highly driven and determined, individuals are often labelled as 'Assholes'.

Sticks & Stones-One of the greatest bands of all time as far as I'm concerned and I know Ian Brown is no Axl but put Squire and Slash on a stage together and I defy anybody to say he's not one of the best guitarists in the world!

Yes;the self-titled debut was noting short of magnificent.My favorite cut is 'Fool's Gold/What the world really is'.Insightful post Dazey,I have always held the stone roses in high regard and can definately see the parrallels mentioned.They had the tightest fucking rhythm section, no doubt fuelled by their amazing drummer.And Yeah,I'd love to hear a duo/combined effort from these two legends.Highly driven and determined, individuals are often labelled as 'Assholes'.

Great track but a little slow in comparison. It wasn't actually on the original record and "what the world is waiting for"? Was only ever released as a b side was it not?

Chinaski Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 (edited) It must be an apt comparison. They even attract similar fuckwits to be fans. Check out this comment on a Stone Roses article: The original line up of The Stone Roses eh? There's been about a dozen different members in The Stone Roses over the years, this is the classic line up, not the original Edited July 8, 2012 by Chinaski Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Len B'stard Posted July 8, 2012 Share Posted July 8, 2012 Saw em on Saturday. Yeah, Slash wanted to join but Brownie told him to fuck off. How was the gig? I've heard mixed reports?i thought it was fuckin amazing. the actual performance was flat out amazing, had a good ol' mosh during Beady Eye, lots of cupfuls of piss being chucked around and the odd "you ain't from around here are you, you're an italian, aren't you?" type approaches Yeah, a wonderful time was had by all. I thought it was one of the best gigs i've ever been to, ever. And playing wise, fuck me were they on fire, wanna go see em in a more intimate setting, that'd be cool Fuckin' belter though, just absolutely amazing, youtube it and you'll see just how well the musical aspect was nailed.

wasted Posted July 9, 2012 Share Posted July 9, 2012 that's something that often gets missed, they can play, even I can tell they masters, listen to all the subtlety and feel and intracies. like Zepp they make stuff sound futuristic with just guitar, bass and drums. I love Breaking into Heaven, I know it's indulgent but thats how you start a record lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
