RIP Gary “Mani” Mounfield (1962 - 2025)

 

Shocked and devastated upon hearing the tragic news. Mani's basslines soundtracked my boyhood. Our boyhood. When he joined The Stone Roses, he was the missing piece that made their star shine. He brought the funk and the groove to their psychedelic indie dance rock 'n' roll. He was a Manchester music icon and a passionate lifelong Red. He died on the honest side of history, unlike so many others. He was a massive talent and a top Red, both in football and political terms. A proper geezer and a working class hero. Safe travels motherfucker.
