    Loved the way John Squire slipped in the ‘Day Tripper’ riff during his workout playing ‘Fools Gold’ live in the movie. 🎸🇬🇧

    Love the Roses, ever since I bought the first album totally on spec without having heard of them before. Never had the chance to see them live, but can't wait to see this film.

      This film was actually a revelation for me regarding Reni. I hadn't realized what a good drummer he was prior to watching the rehearsal footage. It doesn't come across on the records to the same extent since they're so guitar-heavy. Top ten lists are futile, but he's certainly an excellent drummer in terms of groove and creativity.

      @@vapjrk A response that shows you know very little about drumming. Reni is a genius, every bit as good as Bonham, Baker, Rich, Morello, Liezbezeit etc. etc. Educate yourself, please.

    I thought it was lacking as a documentary. As a love letter to his favourite band it kind of worked. But was it really a documentary about the band...not really. It was non linear and fizzed out with the dull footage from the Reformation gig. The highlight for me was the free gig footage. The rehearsal footage was dull. If you are a die hard fan you'll love it.

    • @losttango

      I'm not a Stone Roses' fan, but I am a musician of sorts and I thought the rehearsal footage was the highlight of the film. 🤷

      A tad harsh. The second album was great, totally different from the the first, their record sleeves were brilliant and there are B sides that make a great album.

    • @TastyCement
      @TastyCement 3 місяці тому +2

      A very lazy assessment. If you could be bothered listening to The Complete Stone Roses, you'll find they recorded 20+ singles and B sides that are masterful but never officially graced an official album. Please educate yourself.

      They're fine, but just standard pseud-garage band "indy rock" stuff. But I guess that's their appeal to many of their fans...

    I agree with everything you have typed.I went to see them at Finsbury park last Friday and I'm still none the wiser - although they were a great live act.An entire career based on two albums in 25 years - something doesn't add up here.

    As a documentary it's pretty poor. It's essentially live footage with a bit of archive thrown in. Fine as a fan I guess, but it really isn't a documentary.

      It was a fly on the wall/love letter to The Stone Roses. That's fine by me, I like some trad documentaries, but the talking heads get boring after a while, I get bored about what so and so says about the band who roadied for them for two days or something.
