The Stone Roses: War and Peace
A great read of the history of one of the bands that defined a generation. Not my generation but a little later. I missed the initial hype as was out of the country for a while but soon got into them. I hadn't realised their musical pedigree (who influenced them) or the madness that surrounded them. Time must have stood still for them, or the opposite. Years working on an album. Fifteen of some of them not talking to each other. A warts and all very detailed and well researched book which ends with them reforming soon leading to when I saw them at Finsbury Park. Worth reading and better than some band books.
