Sugar, a detail of this painting was used for the 'She Bangs The Drums' (July 1989) and then later a second detail was used for the 'I Wanna Be Adored' single (September 1991).
(I Wanna Be Adored design - used for the Stone Roses inner booklet artwork) "That was a detail of a larger picture that was also used later on 'I Wanna Be Adored'. We just homed in on one section of it. We were running out of time, and I didn't have time to work on it properly." "Another detail from the picture used for 'She Bangs The Drums'. That was another Pollock lift, from when he was actually touching the canvas with his brush and making shapes. I've only seen one Pollock, at the Tate in London." (Speaking to Select Magazine Nov 97)
