MADE OF STONE - THE STONE ROSES - THE VERY BEST OF THE STONE ROSES VINYL LP

"Made of Stone" is a landmark 1989 indie rock track by the prominent Madchester band The Stone Roses. It was originally released as the second single from their critically praised self-titled debut studio album. The phrase also serves as the title for the acclaimed 2013 music documentary film The Stone Roses: Made of Stone, which was directed by Shane Meadows. Release Date: 6 March 1989 through Silvertone Records. Songwriters: Written by lead singer Ian Brown and guitarist John Squire. Tracklist (7" Vinyl): Formatted with "Made of Stone" as the A-side and "Going Down" as the B-side. Tracklist (12" / CD): Added a third track called "Guernica", which is a reversed mix of the title track. Meaning & Trivia; Dark Inspiration: The stark, brooding lyrics describe a horrific car crash ("Your knuckles whiten on the wheel... You fry and melt"). They were heavily inspired by the tragic death of painter Jackson Pollock. The Late Show Incident: The band famously made their national British TV debut performing this song on the BBC's The Late Show in September 1989. The venue suffered a sudden power outage mid-song, prompting Ian Brown to curse and walk off the live broadcast. Album Art: Guitarist John Squire created the single's cover art, opting for a Jackson Pollock-influenced paint-splatter aesthetic. *Give a Thumbs Up 👍🏻 If You Enjoy The Video 👍🏻* **And Please Subscribe To My Channel @Papa_Bear_Beats For FREE! ❤️💬🔔 and Don't Forget to Leave a Comment ** *Thank You 👍🏻*
