"Sally Cinnamon" is a single released by the band the Stone Roses in 1987. The song was the second single released by The Stone Roses, and was released before bassist Mani joined the band. It was not included in their first studio album two years later.
The single entered the UK Indie Chart in June 1987, spending thirty-nine weeks in the chart in total, peaking at number three.[1] When re-released in 1989 it entered the UK Singles Chart where it spent seven weeks, peaking at number 46.[2]
When the single was re-released, the band refused to make a video for their former label, resulting in the label making a video which the band took objection to in January 1990, by trashing the offices of their former label by throwing paint and by throwing it over Paul Birch, as well as destroying several cars. This incident resulted in a court case that saw the band get off with a £6,000 fine and a ban from entering the premises of their former label.
All songs written by Brown/Squire.
The tracklisting on the back of the 1992 CD release has "All Across The Sands" and "Here It Comes" listed the wrong way round.
Due to chart regulations, this release was not eligible to chart as a single in 2005
