Author: The Stone RosesFeatures: Second Coming by The Stone Roses (1994-12-06)Format: CDRelease Date: 07-12-1994Details: Product description Second Coming CD Geffen Records, GED-24 503, 1994, 12 Track Amazon.ca Their debut made them the new Beatles and Stones rolled into one, and Second Coming was five years in the making. Accordingly, the anticipation was immense, and when the product seemed on first listen to be a very long, very protracted Led Zeppelin guitar solo--courtesy of the excessively well-practised John Squire--The Stone Roses convincingly punctured their own myth. Nevertheless, some of Second Coming is quite good: "Breaking Into Heaven" is appealingly pompous, showing that the Roses at least had a handle on the nature of their own import, and better still, had the ability to pull it off. "Love Spreads" and "Ten Storey Love Song" are imbued with the arrogance--and thankfully the tunes--of old. And the rest? Well, if you've ever heard John Squire's next band, The Seahorses, you'll know what to expect. Seldom has the guitar solo been so accomplished, or so dull. -- Louis PattisonUPC: 720642450321EAN: 0720642450321Languages: EnglishBinding: Audio CDItem Condition: New Show more
