#StoneRoses6Music

The playlist is handed over to all things Stone Roses.

On this Sunday's Now Playing the whole 2 hours will be a Stone Roses inspired playlist.

Back in March The Stone Roses frontman Ian Brown confirmed that the band were definitely recording new material, following rumours that they had been working on the long-awaited follow-up to 1994's 'Second Coming'.

Well, fast forward to May, and if the band's iconic lemon logo appearing on digital advertising boards around Manchester city centre on Tuesday morning (10 May)
are anything to go by, then it seems a release is imminent. Rumours have it it's going to be this week...so in true Now Playing style we're handing over the playlist to all things Stone Roses.

Music by the band, people they have influenced & those that have influenced them, the 'Madchester' scene peers, covers of the band's music...you're in control of the playlist but with every suggestion remember to give the reason WHY you want that particular song.

Get your Stone Roses-inspired suggestions to Tom via the hashtag #StoneRoses6Music, comment on the Now Playing Facebook page, on the blog, email nowplaying@bbc.co.uk or drag tracks onto our Spotify playlist.
