This book is very enthusiastic and detailed, and as such was an interesting read. It's a little repetitive, and is not based on any substantial direct access to the band, so is a bit limited on those fronts. It is a little old now, written long before the 2012 reunion shows were announced, but covers the 80s and 90s well, and really took me back to the whole 'Madchester' time and Spike Island gig etc. ( ) If, like me, you're a 'Roses' fan then you want to know more, you want to know everything, you want to know why ... why after 5 years do we only have 2 albums and a mystique of the "laziest band in showbusiness"? Well here are the answers ... or at least as much of an answer as I think you are likely to get ... for now anyway. This is not the greatest written biography of a band, there are no interviews with the band members, indeed there are no revelations or explanations, just a heartfelt enthusiasm by John Robb for possibly, arguably, unequivocally the greatest band of the '90's. The band's career is followed and detailed year by year with excerpts from the press, from Robb's own perspective (and he was 'inside', he does have some stories to tell of life on the road and in the studio) and it's great to be reminded of their high and low points. This is not the best biography of a band but it is the best biography of the Roses and for that I love it ... sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
A classic biography charting the rise, fall and resurrection of one of the greatest bands in British music history 'The Stone Roses have become folk heroes, frozen in time. And their story, with roots in punk through post-punk, scooter boys, skinheads, Northern Soul, psychedelia, acid house and Madchester, is everything that is great about British street culture.' Reni. Mani. Ian Brown. John Squire. Names that will forever be remembered for creating their defining album The Stone Roses and a unique but inimitable baggy style. Their phenomenal story was first documented by the man who was with them every step of the way- John Robb. And now, in this special edition of his acclaimed and intimate biography, Robb brings the ultimate rock 'n' roll tale fully up to date. No se han encontrado descripciones de biblioteca. |
