Serving Stone Roses fans since 1999
So I’ve been trawling through my Roses secret vaults for the first time in ages, and thought it was about time that I started sharing some treasures.
In a completely random fashion I’m going to be posting a variety of Roses related bits and bobs.
First up some music press clippings of reviews.
Another exclusive article from 1990. British magazine The Face did a joint feature with the Roses and The Happy Mondays back in January 1990.
It has one of my favourite Roses front covers and has excellent band photography throughout.
Find this and many other classic articles in the Press section.

Just added a magazine article from July 1990. A four page feature from Sky magazine which looked at the buzz around the Roses as they prepared to return with the much anticipated One Love single.
You can find more classic Roses interviews and articles in the Press section.

A series of 7 inch and digital download singles are being released in the run up to the album re-release.
The series will kick off on 6 July with Elephant Stone. It will be backed with The Hardest Thing In The World as a b-side. The digital download versions will also feature an additional bonus track, with ‘Untitled 1’Â the first ‘new’ track.
The series will run to 5 singles, all of which will come with a 7 inch art print. A numbered collectors’ box will also be available to house them.
An official podcast from Sony has been launched in the run up to the re-release of The Stone Roses album. The series is set to run for 5 episodes with the first featuring new interviews with John Leckie and Clint Boon.
It’s worth checking out and I’m looking forward to the rest in the series.
Check it out on iTunes or access it via Feedburner.
