Produktinformationen zu „The Stone Roses “
After years of speculation, the Stone Roses have reformed, and the 220,000 tickets for their first 3 gigs sold in 68 minutes - the fastest selling rock gigs in UK history. Featuring over 100 interviews with the key figures, this book takes us inside their world, and tells the true story behind their rise, fall and resurrection for the first time.
Klappentext zu „The Stone Roses “
One perfect summer. One perfect sound. One perfect record.I Wanna Be Adored. She Bangs the Drums. Waterfall. This Is the One. I Am the Resurrection.
The Stone Roses defined a generation. Their eponymous 1989 debut album is widely recognised as one of the best ever made. It sold more than 2 million copies and still inspires new music. The making of their second record - and the spectacular break-up that followed - is the stuff of legend. Finally, in 2012, they are back.
But the true story behind their rise and fall has never been told. Until now. Written in collaboration with the band, and featuring over 100 interviews with the key figures, The Stone Roses takes us inside their world for the first time. From the Manchester backwaters to the worldwide 2012 tour, this is the astonishing story of incandescent talent and jaw-dropping excess. Going beyond the myths, The Stone Roses lays bare the band that rocked the world.
