Golden Greats (Ian Brown Album)
Golden Greats is the second solo album released by Ian Brown, the ex-frontman of The Stone Roses. Despite the title, the album is not a compilation album, but rather, a studio album. The album, described by NME as "a left-field masterpiece and Brown's best work for a decade", contains soaring sonic textures and electronic dance beats; it is less song-oriented than Unfinished Monkey Business. Golden Greats showcases a diverse usage of instruments including strings, mellotron and organs.
Track 10, "Babasónicos", is the name of an actual Argentine band that collaborated with Brown on the song.

Famous quotes containing the words golden and/or brown:
“He hangs in shades the orange bright,
Like golden lamps in a green night,
And does in the pomegranates close
Jewels more rich than Ormus shows;
He makes the figs our mouths to meet,
And throws the melons at our feet;
But apples plants of such a price
No tree could ever bear them twice.”
—Andrew Marvell (1621–1678)
“She does not know
Her beauty,
She thinks her brown body
Has no glory.”
—Waring Cuney (1906–1976)
