I'm now at an age where I think How did I totally miss that band? OK, I agree that my statement didn't actually say that!
She quite likes the jam sound affects and elvis Costello. Not keen on billy Bragg or ozrics?

The album feels very Led Zep inspired in places. The Seahorses album picks up from where second coming left off.
Happy Mondays., Soup Dragons, Oasis, Blur, The Charlatans, The Farm, all good stuff

I play the album every now and then, but hardly ever listen to The Second Coming. My recollection is that it's aimless, rambling and full of indulgent blues-rock riffing. I remember years later being in a conference in the USA with a French colleague who was a big Roses fan, who argued with me over several nights in the hotel bar that the second album was much better than the first. Incroyable. I might give it a spin this weekend, but I doubt it'll change my mind.

Some absolutely glorious moments but some dreadful filler as well. I find myself hitting "skip" too often if I put on one of their albums.
Where does the time go?
Happy times, and funny how you can remember some days with such clarity.
I was aware of them via the NME, greatest band ever etc, the court case, Spike Island, the bucket hats - but I just figured it was baggy and not my scene. How wrong I was.
That debut album is spine chilling. And what an incredible drummer and guitarist - the bass player is top notch too doing that McCartney upper fretboard thing. Ian Brown is much like Anthony Kiedis - it wouldn't be the same band/sound without him.
I love it when they go off, take chances and do the jam thing as well on Waterfall, Fools Gold etc.. - very Grateful Dead - love that.
