A great record it's one that most of my friends love and I can put on when we've had a few beers at high volume. Would it be my number one album no but probable in my top 50 or 100 depends what mood I'm in at the time . I think that goes with most music.

I have been avoiding this record for 21 years. Should have continued doin' that. A mediocre affair with a couple good tracks tacked at the end.

Listened to it for the first time today. It's a good album, I can't deny that. But calling it "great" or "the greatest ever" is a massive overstatement. The only song I really liked was "Waterfall".

How anyone can't get into this record is beyond me. "I Wannd Be Adored" comes in like a wave crashing and turns into the snottiest song you'll ever hear. The rest is nearly (though not quite) as good.

Listened to it for the first time in years, and my opinion of it has improved greatly

In my own opinion, the problem is not enough artists "want to be rockstars" and a lot obsess constantly about appearing to be "making music for the right reasons". They obsess over it so much it narrows what they can do considerably. Anyone could record something better than any album if they were to put in the effort. What if someone doesn't want to believe a band can make a better album than The Stone Roses debut? ;) If they believe they can't they won't. The ceilings the limit... and please don't touch it lads, the paints still wet.

I just don't understand why musicians these days can't take an idea and elaborate on it. I know it can be done but it just seems like bands just want to be rock stars and they make music for all the wrong reasons. What I'm saying is that if an album over 20 years ago can sound this good there is no reason why there couldn't be an artist or a band out there that can make an album even better than The Stone Roses. Sounds crazy? Yes, but you know it's true.

Britpop was born and died with The Stone Roses, no album after it even came close. Perhaps that's why they never did manage to follow it up for real. It's just one of those records that capture the sound of a certain moment in time so perfectly that you can't add or subtract anything from it.
