Here’s another great issue of Melody Maker from 1989. Once again the Roses were on the cover and there’s some good photography throughout.

The Roses Vaults Day 10

We find the Roses in belligerent form, yet the journo takes it well and is more than convinced by the Roses after seeing them nail it live. The article from Sounds March ’89 also features one of my all time favourite Roses photos that really captures the Roses’ gang mentality.
