remember when stone roses "stone roses" came out? i listened to nothing but that album for months upon months. and i'm sure a lot of you on this list did the same. now i haven't picked it up in a couple of years, but i still know what perfection it was and how it made me feel. i'm worried that sinister one day will become "stone roses".
but that's GOOD!!! god, i still remeber the day 'Stone Roses' came out, it was a great sunny day in Glasgow, and we'd stayed up all night to watch the sunrise and i walked back to central station from out by Byars Road. It was just as the stores were opening and i went into Missing down by the arches wasn't it? And i picked up two copies, one for me, one for my girlfriend. I got back to Troon (oops, it crops up again!) and we sat on my girlfriend's front door step and played the LP all day in the sun. It was Special. And the subsequent events that overtook Stone Roses don't matter a damn... nothing can take away the greatness of that record gelling so perfectly with that time. It didn't last long either, i remember going away to the US for a couple months, then coming home to find that it had all gone overground in a silly way, BUT, the moment still stuck and sticks still. So to B&S, and YES i remember the day i got Sinister (without sleeve because they couldn't find it in the store) and it's the same thing... with that record and the whole feeling of the band, only a million times more acute, or so it feels. I don't listen to Sinister as much as i did, but still when i slide it on it makes me shiver, makes me quiver, makes me want to share this Love with other people. So, 'a worrying thing'? Hell, only if you're worried by extreme emotion, by the amazing feeling of warmth and delight that i suspect B&S bring to you. surrender to the love, live the life of a juggler. the duke.
