Never a mellifluous vocalist his voice has coarsened to the point where what emerges from his throat is a cross between a bark and a rasp and is shockingly tuneless.
Ten years on from The Stone Roses' implosion and while axe-master Squire most likely whiles away his time strumming an acoustic guitar watching The Jeremy Kyle Show Brown is busy selling out venues like the Corn Exchange on a regular basis.
Audibly the one weak link in a band of startling talents he has somehow ended up the solitary Stone Rose with a career that's not merely functioning but in rude health: a decade after their miserable demise he is still playing sold-out gigs.
But Ian Brown's got a secret weapon: those Stone Roses songs… Outside the Academy, tickets for the final date of Ian Brown's ‘Solarized' tour are changing hands for £90.
