In May 1995, when The Stone Roses performed in Atlanta, they were at a pivotal point in their career, having just released their second album, "Second Coming," earlier that year in February. This album marked their long-awaited return after a lengthy hiatus following their acclaimed debut in 1989. While "Second Coming" showcased a more mature sound with influences from various rock genres, it received mixed reviews compared to their iconic self-titled debut. The Atlanta show captures the band's transition as they adjusted to the pressures of success and fan expectations. Notably, the performance features "I Am the Resurrection," a classic from their first album, highlighting the band's commitment to their roots even as they explored new musical directions. The 1995 live set also illustrates the fervent connection between the band and their audience during a time of both anticipation and uncertainty in their career trajectory.
