Not a fan of the Stone Roses TBH but to put the video up, just head to YouTube or Dailymotion etc, find it, copy the web address and paste it into a new reply in here and the forum does all the clever work for us.

Here you go

Edit: just cos I'm a pedantic git, I edit the post and delete the web link under the video out when the [ media] etc has embedded

Just had time to listen to that. Blimey, still get goosebumps like I did when I first clapped ears on it.

There's some cracking stuff on this thread (and some pony )

The first version was released in 1989 - can't remember it well enough to know whether this is the same one

Another tune that got a second life a bit later - first got a limited release in 1989.

As @John the Monkey already posted my fave of all time (pacific state), not to mention a fair few classics, I'll do some of the best of the rest.
