Page "The Stone Roses" Paragraph 20

Following the court case The Stone Roses separated themselves from Manchester's club culture and spent much of 1992 and 1993 travelling in Europe before starting work on their second album in mid-1993.

Progress was slow, hampered by Brown's and Squire's new fatherhood and the death of several people close to the band.

John Leckie ultimately left the project as the band would not sign a production contract.

Afterwards The Stone Roses assumed production duties with engineer Simon Dawson at Rockfield Studios in Wales, where they spent 347 ten-hour days working on the album.
