Stone Roses - She bangs the drums (Early acoustic)

[jaspurr77]

fuckin cool

[Birtles20]

Thanx for all the comments everyone.. Theres been alot of debate if this is ian or john on vocals.. i don't know for definate but iam pretty sure its ian, if you listen to some roses bootlegs before the release of the first album it does sound alot like ians voice.. I think i have got a couple of gigs from 87 and 88 on here.. Take a listen! Thanx again everyone.. Roll on heaton park!

[stonedrose1]

Bullshit! Don't believe it for a second

[DDDoppleganger1]

It's NOT John Squire singing. It's Ian Brown.

[MrLeemac17]

fuckin boss that, never heard that version before, quality

[STRETFORDRED1]

Squire singing here.

[bazmcshield79]

defo squire id bet my genatailia on it !

[01donie]

hhmm.. uumm.. eemmm..

[razmitazzz]

the chorus sounds like the melody from the verses of "pearl bastard",.,, fucking mint shit.!!!

[gazz12345a]

Should have been bigger than the Beatles.

[MrHankscorpio100]

[blurry67]

@MrHankscorpio100 sounds like Ian to me...

[MrHankscorpio100]

@blurry67 sounds more like squire. i don't know though...

[IDrinkYourMilkshake8]

clearly an early demo, not fake. nice

[chas1409]

your shit

[whollymackerel]

you can tell its genuine a fuckin mile and i have never heard this before...Stone roses..Liverpool uni a week or so after the album came Out...$.50 a ticket or somethin Like at...fuckin ace

[2faatcaats]

I LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLove the Stone Roses, and now my son is listening to them.

Thanks for some early stuff.

[moonuk]

Yea, I reckon this is defo real, coz of the different chorus!! If that makes sense.. Its a bedroom recording first idea of it probz.. Top stuff for uploading...Also that guitaring is defo John, gotta be hay??

[Porterjoh]

Yep, this is real.

[c0bbl3rs]

If you like Stone Roses and or Bob Dylan or just imaginative cover versions, then you really ought to check out my own acoustic Love Spreads cover with shocking early Dylan style harmonica playIng.

Let me know your good and bad feedback if you have anything to offload...I'm quite thick skinned, so speak your minds people....

[jamgeorgie]

Not fake! Listen to 0:55 "she gives me hope, she gives me speed" This was lyrics from the early versions but they took it out. Check out thisisthedaybreak (no spaces) explains every roses song in great detail. Top site

[10BensonSilver]

defo not fake. i was there during the recording. well, i say i was there, i was trying to ring me mam from johnnos house phone to see if i could stay over but i heard this going on upstairs. on a school night innit

[aeroponic]

Anyone thinking it's fake listen from 1:45 - the guitar playing is controlled and really stylish, i reckon thats squire, probably him singing too then.

[zaphodboy100]

deffo not fake. sounds just like some of the pre signed early stuff before sally cinnamon. i love the roses as much as the next guy but .....with a demo like that, how did they ever get off the ground lol.

[moonuk]

Wow, where did you get this??? Top stuff...

[seifukusha]

so cute..

[exup2000]

ive no idea whos singing it or whether its fake.but id have to say i fucking like it.

[gackstacker]

No actually its Andy Couzens singin it.

[gackstacker]

At first i thought this was fake, but its plausibly john squire demoing an early version of the song.

[Ulmeyda08]

This video is proof that squire was the genuis behind The stone roses.

[poocanoo]

anyone know who wrote ' can't see me'?

[Ulmeyda08]

Ian wrote that one.

[poocanoo]

no he didn,t squire wrote it when in the roses but never recorded it

[Ulmeyda08]

Yes but the fact that Squire wrote this without Ian is proof that he was the genuis.

[ReptilianFreemason]

The great thing with the Roses was that every one of them were legends in their own right just like most legendary bands.

[mylestails]

no he fucking never. Ian wrote the lyrics and mani the bass line. There may have been some squire guitar in the demo ian found but ian wrote the song.

[markstone1974]

Mani joined the band late on. John wrote the bass and the bass for the second coming.

[MrThreshold2009]

your all fucking morons it we're mani who did the hole fukin thing i no coz hes me dads best m8 u fukin thik fuckerz

[originalprankster777]

@MrThreshold2009 What is that is smell? Is it bullshit?

[heightofearnestness]

@originalprankster777 lol

[poocanoo]

ye dont know nowt bout the roses me....!its not squire its reni dumbo,s!!!

[mrjohnsonhcane]

brilliant. so raw, can't help but love it.

squire on vocals by the way. 100% fact

[brincat93]

its brown on vox

[poocanoo]

its fake you thick twats buy garage flower

[oasisfranz]

You obviously know nothing about the Roses, especially if think that Garage Flower is even a credible set of Stone Roses demos.

[poocanoo]

never said garage flower is demo,s i said just buy it

[mylestails]

you know nothing about righting music garage flower had some great raw melodys on it, the production was shit but the potential was clear. But an oasis fan wouldnt understand music

[poocanoo]

exactly! garage flower was a sweet album this is the one original is raw too!

[nukeim2000]

garage flower is my fave roses album. its just so raw and basic. its fucking mad

[helplessdancer991]

I'm an Oasis fan, and I fucking love The Stone Roses. You can't generalize

[spinningfish2005]

I'm pretty convinced it's Squire on vox.

Listening to other demos from the time where Squire sings.

Definitely bloody genuine!

Good find!!

[northcountrybhoy]

she builds me up with all i need

she give me hope she gives me speed

yeah

oh yeah

defo Ian Brown singing this! sounds like he is so young when recorded tho! mid/late 80s....

[stonerboy001]

It bloody well is genuine. I have this on a vinyl bootleg bought in 1990.

[squirehorse]

this is the roses! prob squire... because he wrote it mainly right?

[pitch30320]

ReNI Is The singer on That One, not Ian or Squire, he plays both guitar too, hes better at the bass anyway!

[poocanoo]

yep this guy knows what the score is and its reni singing.Squire can,t sing!never can brown tho really!

[NaganoMild]

maybe John Squire singing?

It doesn't sound like Ian to me.

[escapefromitall]

The vocals sound nothing like Browns, and for 86 Squire was a lot more advanced than this on guitar, listen to so young/tell me which was recorded in Stockport in 1985.

[zulusfinest]

its an acoustic version so he's hardly gona be raggin solos here ther n everywher is he?! he's playin the chords n singin for fuck sake, u fuckin know-it-all twat who knows-fuck-all!

[sixtyeightspecial]

ahahhaha! What a brilliant reply. So true!

[plumelapatte]

This is fake and some comments are so naive... Ian had found his voice by that time. Isn't Tell Me from 1985? Give it a listen and you'll hear the real young Ian Brown.

This has neither Ian or John on the vocals or the guitar but a poor imitator IMO.

And I love the Stone Roses. :)

[conorMcGrace]

she builds me up with all i need

she give me hope she gives me speed

yeah

yeah

and yes it is ian

[goolyisthebest]

is that rely Ian Brown singing ??

[thisisatrueeestory]

it sounds so raw and young but I love it. fantastic stuff

[219970]

This song was written by a 22 year old 22 years ago. Pure beauty.

[rollingtimes]

I love it i think it sounds boss.

[sisterrose85]

it is ian singing i agree it sounds class but remember that ian had not found his voice yet as he was so young- what a tune also

[quatermas7]

sounds like ian brown to me. his voice was much higher then.

[quatermas7]

imagine writing that.

[thirdynumberone]

could be squire, never heard john early so cant be sure, but cause of the change of chorus and by the guitar playin, its more likely him, cant see it being reni and def not mani, would be funny if it was tho =D

[Bankai666]

What are the lyrics of the chorus? It sounds different.

[vadar03]

this is still genuine

[longlivetheroses]

sounds like ian but with out b&H

[gdrenfrew]

cheers for posting, sounds like Ian to me too. Looking forward to seeing some posters eating their Kangols...

[spamisnotacrime]

fuck off

[stoneroadster]

this is not ian ill bet a grand on it pal its never ian so like i said its a good version so nice 1

[jpno5]

thats john squire singing!

[paulmca2001]

You're right, does sound like Squire!! Definitely not Ian....

[Drix231]

sounds like it ian to me

[219970]

You sound like you're about to break into "when I'm cleaning windows" by Fornby on his banjo. This is absolutely dreadful. Please don't ever do this again. And by the way, if this is the Stone Roses, I am Mother Theresa.

[joydivision808]

fucking shite u sad cunt posting this done in your bedroom was it

[ctidcarl]

Now then..... Ian Brown gets slated for his singing all the time, but.....

Even he would be embarassed by this nonsense!!

If this is Ian Brown singing, then I am Uwe Rosler.

Wishful thinking!! (top Northside tune, by the way!!)

[rfc1207]

alrite uwe hows it goin

[Northernsoul12]

this is so fake

[stoneroadster]
