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.

While for some he represents more attitude than talent his inspiration for the Britpop generation and beyond means you cannot ignore him.

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.
