Manchester band the Stone Roses are partly responsible for the media renaming their home city "Madchester" in the late 80s/early 90s. Along with the Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets and the rave and acid-house scenes promoted by the Haçienda nightclub, the hype surrounding the Stone Roses' breakthrough brought the UK music media to England's north-west in droves. I just looked this up on AMAZON and surprisingly there are no reviews of this mighty fine album? Maybe that's because it didn't take off in the USA? Anyway this is the real deal. NME voted it the best album of all time? I personally think its a great album, and its got the super funky FOOLS GOLD on it which is a classic.
