The Cure, Disintegration/ Stone Rose, Stone Roses.

[Notorious Decka]

She bangs the drums, waterfall, bye bye badman and sugar spun sister are great tracks to listen to when it’s sunny. I’ll be giving them a blaring this morning

 

[Stubbs ftm]

Verve urban hymns and OCS Marchin already, were released at the same time I think.

 

[raindog]

I prefered the Cure's early work over the Stone Roses but their later stuff prefered the Stone Roses anyway... heres an hiden gem for your perusal

 

[Kent_Mackem]

Wasn't Disintegration Lol Tolhursts last album?

Yes, and they credited him as playing “other instrument”.

One of my favourite ever albums. I love it when they play It through in full live, almost identical to how it is on the album.

The chords to Disintegration are really simple, I’ve no idea how he remembers all the words though even if he did write them himself.

 

[Scorer]

Of course it counts. They've put it on there for a reason. In the same way songs like that have been an integral part of a classic record.

Edit. That match sounds like the defending was atrocious.

It was, and we lost.

As good as these albums from 1989 they are not quite up there with another 1989 release, Technique ( in my humble opinion of course)

I’d probably agree although as already mentioned I’d put Mind Bomb just ahead, close call though.

screamadelica anarl iirc mate,

 

[The Great MES]

Both great, seminal albums and both released on the same day, 2nd May 1989.

personally I think the Cures record is the superior album. Pictures of You, Lullaby and Fascination street are masterpieces.

off top of my head can’t think of 2 other records so good releases on same day. Any others ?

I think Definitely Maybe and The Holy Bible were released on the same day (August 94) iirc. And I agree Disintegration is perfect and is probably my favourite album of all time

 

[dangermows]

Apparently these were released on the same day too.

screamadelica anarl iirc mate,

just checked that as had never heard that before. Weirdly Nevermind was released the following day to screamadelica. 23rd and 24th sept 91

 

[Arkle]

OK Computer and Ladies And Gentlemen We Are Floating In Space were also released on the same day. I took the day off work to listen to them repeatedly.

Two crackers.

I hated The Cure and loved The Roses then.

I love them both now and would probably struggle to choose

I didn’t hate the cure but I certainly preferred the Roses. Mind that was only based on me being young and not really getting Robert Smiths hair and make up.
Now I’ve grown up and base my opinions on the actual music I definitely prefer the Cure

I over indulged with spiritualised, great album though. Haven’t heard it for some time, going to dig it out. Ok computer no more than ok for me.

Fools Gold ultimately became my Roses favourite, although there are several others that I have on vinyl that still absolutely hit the spot (Sally Cinnamon, Made of Stone to name two).

A Forest is simply awesome and gets regular play in the cosmic car. There's something about that Joy Division-esque sound that seems to fit so well into the late 70s and 80s narrative inside my grizzled old brain
