The Story Behind: The Stone Roses - The Stone Roses, Ep. 214

Musicians recount the strange and unexpected story behind the making of your favorite albums. The Stones Roses were the "it" band for a brief period, but bad contracts and struggling to follow up their hit debut tanked their chances at lasting stardom. The boys welcome a very special guest and discuss long & suspenseful intros, slacker vocal tone, and the Spike Island chemical dump.
