The Stone Roses Second Coming Paul Schroeder mix Pink double 12"
Cardboard cover - PVC sleeve Selling from personal collection
The Paul Schroeder mix of Second Coming has long been spoken about in hushed, reverent tones by Stone Roses devotees, a kind of parallel-universe version of the album where things are a little tighter, a little groovier, and perhaps a little less weighed down by destiny. Schroeder’s mixes rein in some of the album’s excess, pushing the rhythm section forward and letting Ian Brown’s vocals cut through with more swagger, while John Squire’s guitars feel purposeful rather than endlessly exploratory.
The real talking point is an epic 20-minute studio session documenting the band slowly getting to grips with Good Times , all false starts, locked grooves, shouted cues, and moments of magic emerging from the chaos. It’s less a polished performance and more an audio fly-on-the-wall, capturing the Roses thinking out loud, feeling their way forward, and occasionally sounding like they might wander off for a cup of tea at any moment, which, for fans, only makes it essential listening.
