An Open Statement from the Family and Friends of Gary "Mani" Mounfield:

It has been less than nine months since we lost Mani. As a family, we are still deeply grieving this monumental loss, and his sons are doing their best to navigate life without their Dad.

Recently, it has come to our attention that multiple individuals, promoters, and organisers are increasingly using Mani’s name, memory, and legacy to advertise events. To see his identity exploited to push external profiles and fill venues—without anyone ever reaching out to ask his boys or his immediate family for permission—is incredibly upsetting and disrespectful during an already painful time.

While we know that so many fans want to celebrate who Mani was and the incredible music he gave the world, we kindly but firmly ask that all organisers, promoters, and venues stop using Mani’s name, image, or likeness to advertise events without the family's express consent.

Official memorial or tribute events will be happening in the future, when the family feels the time is right. We strongly urge Mani's fans to wait until those official announcements are made. Any legitimate events will be fully sanctioned and lovingly organised by his sons.

Please respect our privacy, our boundaries, and Mani’s memory by allowing his boys and his family to grieve in peace.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

With love,

On behalf of the Guardian, The Mounfield Family and Estate

Hey folks, as some of you will know, my dad was Gary ‘Mani’ Mounfield and we tragically lost him at the end of 2025. Since then instead of being given peace and time to grieve, we’ve been watching our dad’s memory be used without our permission. As his firstborn and oldest son, I feel it is my duty to stand up and protect my dad’s legacy. Myself and my brothers, Gene and George are representing our father’s legacy and we intend to honour him ourselves. If the names Joe Mounfield, Gene Mounfield and George Mounfield aren’t involved, it’s not for dad. I’d like to remind some people of words from my eulogy at dad’s funeral, paraphrased. ‘No one could live up to Mani but we could all live LIKE Mani. Be kind, be loving, be open, be Mani.’ We thank you for respecting the family’s wishes, watch this space, one love 🍋❤️ #stoneroses #mani

The Stone Roses - Sally Cinnamon 12”

Released: 1987
Label: Black
Pressing: 2026 Rerelease Crystal Vinyl (Misprint)

https://www.discogs.com/release/37888035-The-Stone-Roses-Sally-Cinnamon

This is a record I almost bought back when it was reissued in 1992 but inexplicably passed on it. Finally made amends 34 years later! I can remember seeing it in the Virgin Megastore at the end of Princes Street in Edinburgh when I was going to (or returning from) Vinyl Villains. I can still picture the stand it was on and me deciding not to bother. I can remember all that, just not sure if it was money or what the reason was, but the visual sticks in my mind.

Pretty wild to think that there was another Virgin Megastore only about half a mile away towards the other end of Princes Street. Physical music’s heyday.

Anyway, this is the Roses’ second single and has been rereleased a few times. I’m sure most of you know it. It fits somewhere in the middle of their canon for me. That opening lo-fi guitar has always been one of the best intros around for me. I don’t know why, it’s just so evocative.

Here we go.
