Like you, I have many happy memories of the roses being an important part of the development of my earliest musical interests.
I think album came out in 1988, when I was 15 too....!
Yes. I'm not sure if that particular calloquialism would have made it down to the med'...!
Basically 'Roses Carpets Mondays' was the phrase that some people (well me and my teenage mates anyway) used when referring to the 'Madchester' music scene in the late 80s early 90s. The important thing was to say it with the thickest Mancunian (Manchester) accent possible, and sound a bit cheeky and stoned at the same time.
Will check out later. I look forward to it. :-)
