Mani has strummed his last chord

[Niblets]

Dead at 63

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

Terrible news. One of my favourite bands. Mani was a top bloke and an amazing bass player. His bass on Fool's Gold is just simply a masterclass. 

RIP fella. 

AHH mate....( fools gold).
great great days  indeed
a gift and a curse being a young man of that era.
We had the best of times, and now living in a different world .

Yeah - When you take Reni, Mani and Squire - You have arguably got 3 of the best musicians ever out of the UK. Ian Brown's singing voice not so top notch - But his voice was very distinct and as, a front man, he had enough swagger for about 20 front men. Plus, he penned all the lyrics with Squire writing the music to match. 

All in all, a formidable band. 

[Chinkey Weasel]

Reni is a superb drummer. Matt Helders from Arctic Monkeys also top notch

[Iron Duke]

Chinky - Ithink Reni is also an excellent drummer. Musical talent wise, Ian Brown is probably the weak link, or is that the missing link? Anyway, he made up for it with Riz, as the kids today would say.

I was out on the piss yesterday, so I didn't see this until this morning.

I am totally shocked. I don't do all this grief tourism malarkey normally but this has hit me hard for some reason.

One of my favourite bands ever. Mani is a fucking legend. At least he gets to reunite with this wife who sadly passed away a couple of years ago.

Luckily, I got to see the Stone Roses live 5 times, including being at Heaton Park for this. Mani at his finest along with John Squire - possibly one of the greatest guitarists ever, in my opinion.......

[Come On You Irons]

That's sad. He was a decent player back in the day when Manchester United last won the league under Ferguson.

[Pub Bigot]

I saw some old news piece on YouTube a while back about the Ferry Incident between us and Man United, and he was there was there. 

Loved the SR, seemed like a nice bloke and now he’s playing in the big band in the sky. Rest in Peace, Mani. 

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

Shame, played bass on one of the greatest debut albums of all time.

RIP.

It was indeed

[Monsieur merde de cheval]

RIP Manny son
He loved ferry trips back in the day

[only1billybonds]

Tak.

Yea, he always came across as a likeable down to earth bloke. I spend a fair bit of time up North these days and hear so much positivity spoken about him when his name comes up.

[Takashi Miike]

that's a shock, I only watched him a few weeks ago on this. loved his positivity, and he wrote one of my favourite scream tracks

[Eastside surge]

Very sad news that loved the stone roses particularly the debut album.
Rip 

[Iron Duke]

Terrible news.

I bet he had a great life though 

RIP Mani.
