there's something funny about the original video being hit with a copyright strike from the record company that didn't give A Guy Called Gerald any of his royalties for Voodoo Ray

Only 40 people were there to witness the Sex Pistols playing in Manchester, and 40,000 of them are still alive 🙂

I believe Chicago and Manchester are sister cities. In Chicago we were not just producing Acid House/Deep House or other House Sub genres in the 80’s. We had the harder edge Industrial Post Punk sound of Wax Trax. What Manchester was listening to in regards to House Music. We were listening to Manchester what we called Indie Rock bands… Chicago was not part of a mainstream Top 40 musical aesthetic. We were not so into Hip Hop or what later became early 90’s Grunge. Unlike other cities in the US. I remember wanting to go to England as an 18 year old because the DJs that went to spin in Manchester would tell us something huge was happening there. We knew all about Acid House pre-Rave parties before anyone else. We had our own smaller scale Acid House scene, but musically there was so much going on. We couldn’t just take one genre at a time. We had Italo Disco, Freestyle, Post Punk, Industrial, Acid House, Deep House, Detroit Techno, Chicago House, New Wave all going on at the same time. It was all Underground and it was a mix and match of the best from those respective music genres.

I can put Stone Roses Fool's Gold on repeat all day, been able to since 1989 when I picked it up. What a great tune.

I just watched 24 Hour Party People a few months back. It’s great to get hear your more academic treatment of the Madchester scene.

I followed all these bands while in High School in Los Angeles and College in San Francisco. The soundtrack to the best years in my life. Luckily got to see many of these bands live.

Screw copyright, you are really doing an informative job on music culture. I might not know most of the artists you post here, but I still enjoy watching your content a lot and find out about cool music.
