Rougher, rawer, worth a look.......2004-03-14
Starting with the so-so "Getting Plenty," it shifts in a blare of horns and drums to the catchy, unhappy "Here It Comes" ("Give me your life/It's worthless anyhow"). The Roses show their talent for getting adrenaline pumping with the weightily catchy "Tradjic Roundabout," loud percussion-led "So Young," and Beatles-esque "All I Want."
As a connection to their debut album, there's an early cut of "I Wanna Be Adored." It's less coherent and more scattered; it's primarily interesting as a sign of how their music evolved into the gritty, polished sound of "Stone Roses." Additionally, "This Is the One" appears in all its punky, whispery glory, a slightly different version from that of the debut album, but possibly even better.
The sound of "Stone Roses" hasn't yet blossomed in "Garage Flowers." Their sound was still evolving and changing. As a result several of the songs here were released for the first time in "Garage Flowers," still with that slightly scratched, unfinished feeling that you only get in demo CDs. Those expecting the quality of "Stone Roses" or "Second Coming" will be disappointed, but those looking for some semi-good music from the then-evolving Stone Roses will find it here.
The muddier sound makes it a little harder to hear the music at times. They're a little uneven musically, tending to depend heavily either on percussion or guitars. And the melodies are somewhat less complex than they were later in the Roses' career, especially with the shaky filler song "Getting Plenty." However, they are still fairly good, with some of the brilliant, swirling guitar riffs and thunderous drumming that can get your pulse racing in an instant.
The 1986 demo album "Garage Flowers" is a shift down from the rest of the Roses' music catalog, but it's still a worthy release and a curiosity for Stone Roses fans.
Not-yet-classic Stone Roses.......2001-06-11
They were once one hell of a garage band.......1998-10-06
WARNING: THIS RECORD IS FOR TRUE FANS ONLY (i.e. people that haven't sold back "Second Coming" to purchase recreational substances)!
My unsolicited advice? Get this, "Turns Into Stone", The self-titled record, "Second Coming" and the Sally Cinnamon single. This gives you every decent song the Roses did in its unedited, original form (do yourself a favor and skip "The Compleat" for this reason). Pass on the cheesy remix garbage and box set. Silvertone milked this poor band's back catalog mercilessly. The same can be said for Geffen for that matter (i.e. skip the "Begging You", "Love Spreads", and "Ten Storey Love Song" singles). Ok, enough preaching from me. I've spent enough money on this band to pay for Squire's rehab a few times over. Oh yeah, and try to pick up a copy of "All the Colours Fade" (live at the Hacienda `89). It's a good un'.
