Roses Tribute Is Blooming Great

THIS is an order - buy a copy of The Complete Stone Roses' new single, Love Will Tear Us Apart, released tomorrow, and help them make a right few quid for a great cause.

The Scots tribute band have covered the Joy Division classic with their bassist Peter Hook making a guest appearance on the song. Profits will go to Cancer Research UK and the band hope to raise £10,000. Their spokesman Peter Lamb told me: "We shot the video in Glasgow and all the cast and crew gave their time free.

"We've already given £17,000 to Cancer Research UK. We support the charity because we all know someone who has been affected by cancer."
