Music - Stone Roses back in the Charts



The Stone Roses' self-titled debut album has re-entered the UK album charts, 21 years after it's initial release.


The band, which officially split up back in 1996, still have a dedicated following. Many had hoped for a reunion last year for the 20th anniversary of the iconic album. But lead singer Ian Brown and Guitarist John Squire still refuse to work together.



The album is considered by many to be the finest debut album ever made. In 2006, writers of NME declared that it was the greatest British album of all time.



Since the band separated, vocalist Ian Brown has had a successful solo career. Guitarist John Squire is now an accomplished artist. Bassist Mani went on to perform with Primal Scream. And drummer Reni, who knows? Maybe he is hiding under his hat.
