It's not too tricky to figure out from CD.
Drum music is IMHO only useful if you want to learn new techniques. If you want to learn new songs, then listen to the songs on CD - you get a better feel of the song.
Stone Roses stuff is pretty easy to figure out but difficult to play perfectly - so if all you want to do is add Stone Roses to your set, learn by ear - that way you get a similar sound that you will personally find easy to play.
AFAIAC learning by ear is the only way to learn a song - I play guitar a bit as well, and I got a Hendrix book in which the listener had got a hell of a lot wrong.
I could give you music to some Stone Roses - but all you'd get is what I hear in it, and if you played it from paper from what I wrote, you'd not get it exactly the same as me and it might just end up sounding wrong.
I make recordings wuite often, and quite often it sounds a hell of a lot different from what I hear behind the kit - you may hear subtle inflections or whatever which make it sound as if I'm doing a lot more than I actually am.
So the basic point is to learn music - listen. To learn technique - read (but preferably get a tutor to teach you).
