Madchester - The Sound Of The North

[Jukebox Jury]

I've started a book with a 'Madchester' theme (that's all I'm saying at the moment) and have this on video but came across it on youtube from 1990 and thought some of you may wish to see it. Sing LSD

THANK YOU PHILL!!!!!!!!

This was the time I came of age and experienced so many things in such a short time. The shots of Great Harwood (my home town) and the convoy of cars going to a warehouse party were commonplace at the time, the shots of Blackburn (which WAS violent by the way despite what that guy said) brought back so many memories. One particular weekend I met Tony Wilson at an 808 State gig in Blackburn on the Friday night, then again the following night with a camera crew at (the first ever i think) organised ticketed rave called "Joy". Sadly did not see any footage of that. Lot of (ectasy induced) love going around at the time which was fantastic. However (inevitably in my opinion) it eventually all went into a downward spiral of drug dealing, addiction, car theft, armed robbery, prison death and teenage pregnancy (I am only guilty of the pregnancy bit the others were people close to me). The early nineties were spent reeling from the fallout, ho, hum - good times while they lasted ..........

I think when you look back it can seem 'not very good' if you were not around at the time as the clothes and haircuts (especially Stuart Maconie's) are dated but this was released at the time it was hapening and as 'gentle kind' says it recorded what was going on in her life at the time as it did mine. I stand by it 18 years on.
