For me, the greatest album ever made.
It is perfect in every way and captured that late 80s youthful zeitgeist wholly.
I was 19 when it was released and believe me, you should have witnessed the Manchester dancefloors in 1989.
Euphoria reigned the second you heard a note.
Summer of 1989 I was 16 years old.
Late nights in the park with my pals, getting drunk on two cans, kissing lassies, and listening to The Stone Roses on a wee Grundig ghetto blaster.
The happiest of days.
RIP Mani
