Part of Linda's ongoing series celebrating The Stone Rose's song with different book cover art, see here 'Linda Charles - I Wanna Be Adored Series'

'I Want To Be Adored' is of course a hit song from the legendary early 'Madchester' movement band The Stone Roses, it is in fact the first track from their seminal debut album (simply called 'The Stone Roses’) - often considered the best British album ever recorded.

I like the artist’s nod to the band with the cut through lemon artwork, the graphic also appearing on their real album! 'I don't have to sell my soul he's already in me' is of course the first words sung from the track.

Continuing her bestselling range of music & art crossover, Linda gives us 'I Want To Be Adored' with a recreated old book cover and a seated woman very scantily clad!

Yellows, blues and greens dabs of paint fill the canvas, with standout yellow and white fonts, the background seems to borrow the colour palette from a classic Monet impressionist painting!

Linda has reconceptualised this 'cover' a few times now and all versions can be admired here: 'Linda Charles - I Wanna Be Adored Series'

More beautiful art by Linda Charles, recreating old erotic novel book covers and crossed over with her love for music & the legendary British band The Stone Roses.

'I Wanna Be Adored' was of course the first track from their first album, simply called 'The Stone Roses,' and original copies of this track: CD, cassette or 7'' vinyl, are now hard to obtain and are very sort after!
