The Stone Roses is the debut album by English rock band The Stone Roses, released on Silvertone Records in 1989. It is widely considered by critics as the seminal record of the Madchester movement that was active in the late 1980s and early 1990s, and as being highly responsible for the mid-1990s resurrection of British guitar music that came to be known as Britpop. Although it was not an immediate success, the album's perceived importance has grown among critics, who have since voted it high in polls of the greatest albums of all time
Cover artwork
As with most Stone Roses releases, the cover displays a work by John Squire. It is a Jackson Pollock-influenced piece titled "Bye Bye Badman," which makes reference to the May 1968 riots in Paris. The cover was named by Q magazine as one of "The 100 Best Covers of All Time." In the accompanying article, Squire said: "Ian [Brown] had met this French man when he was hitching around Europe, this bloke had been in the riots, and he told Ian how lemons had been used as an antidote to tear gas. Then there was the documentary—-a great shot at the start of a guy throwing stones at the police. I really liked his attitude." This story was also the inspiration for the lyrics to the song of the same name.
