my browser won't play the video, is that a good or bad! so he is complaining about morrissey... so what!
i like tony wilson. if it wasn't for him and factory records,would we have had a manchester music scene in the 80s. you wouldn't have the wonderful martin hannett production and savilles amazing cover designs and the music of joy division & new order, happy mondays, vini reilly etc. if he is slating morrissey then so be it, it's his opinion.
factory messed up because of bad managerment and the expense of the LP 'Yes Please' by the happy mondays.
I think the Smiths proved (and this is probably why Wilson hates Morrissey) that Manchester bands did not need him or Factory Records to release records. That if a band was any good they would have done it anyway and therefore everyone in Manchester did not have to worship Mr Wilson as a saviour.
