Tony Wilson who was called the Donald Trump and Brian Epstein of the Manchester music scene would tell the LA Times about why Manchester’s music scene was so exciting revealing “The revolutionary thing about what is happening (in Manchester) is that this is the first blue-collar revolution in pop since Elvis in 1956. The Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Sex Pistols were very middle-class. . . . Art college. The old joke is the Beatles’ mommies gave them their first guitars. . . . .” Much like Seattle during the grunge years, record companies, journalists around the world including Rolling Stone and MTV --descended on Manchester, which was dubbed Madchester. The madchester movement blended together styles of cid house, psychedelia[6] and 60’s pop. Soon enough the energy of the Madchester movement spread to other parts of Europe where British rock and dance fans followed acts from the city as they visited major hubs including Paris and Amsterdam. The Stone Roses history began with frontman Ian Brown and guitarist John Squire who grew up on the same street in south Manchester. They came from lower middle class families and met at the age of 4. They wouldn’t really be close until after school when they bonded over their love of punk rock including the clash and the sex pistols. Squire would be inspired to pickup guitar at the age of 14 after hearing the sex pistols For future Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown it would be a chance meeting with singer Geeno (G-No) Washington in Manchester. Washington was enthralled with Brown’s charisma and said he should give the music business a try. By 1983 the Stone Roses would be formed.Squire would come up with the band’s name, being inspired by having two words that were in sharp contrast to each other. The original lineup was made up of voaclaist Ian Brown, John Squire, bassist Pete Garner and drummer Simon Wolstencroft. The band rehearsed for six months & wouldn’t play their first gig until late 1984 opening for Pete Townshend at an anti-drug event in London By 1985 the group released their first single “So Young,” “Tell Me” and it did little to make a much of a mark. By this point in time the Stone Roses early career hadn’t yet zeroed in on their distinct sound. In an attempt to get their band’s name out there, Brown and Reni went on a graffiti tagging campaign around manchesterbut it did little to win over fans. They soon turned their attention to getting a new manager to market the group and open up business opportunities. They would enlist manager Gareth Evans who owned a local rehearsal space. Evans would get the job by dropping his pants and trying to sell his underwear to the group. It was his way of showing his persuasiveness. It would be a move that would have dire consequences for the band’s career. We’ll talk more about that in a bit. One of Evans first orders of business was to sign a deal with indie label FM Revolver to put out one single, which would end up being the group’s much beloved song “Sally Cinammon” which sold out of it’s 1000 copy run. Sally Cinammon showed a new sound and style of the band focusing a lot more melody. The same year bassist Pete Garner left and was replaced by Gary “Mani” Mounfield, Mani would be the missing piece the band was looking for. Brown recalled the impact Mani joining the group recalling "When Mani joined it almost changed overnight. It became a totally different groove ... Straight away, everything just fell into place".[45 The following year in 1988 the band played at Dingwalls in London, a show that had members of Zomba and Rough Trade's records in attendance. The Stone Roses would sign an astounding 8 album deal with Zomba owned subsidiary Silvertone. Silvertone would put up the money for the group to record the 1988 single, "Elephant Stone", with New Order’s Peter Hook producing. The single helped raise the band’s profile in Manchester, but did little to get their name across the country, While Hook was expected to produce their first full length record, he would be unavailable due to other commitments so John Leckie would come on board and ahead of working on their first full length album Leckie yqRIsv0zKA8 |
