[Rob1973Monkey]

THe Rolling Stone Journo..."This scene is so foreign to the United States" - Well, so is all the shit you sent over to us....like 'Poison', Motley Crue' and Dunkin Donuts...

[muttilo]

@Rob1973Monkey That was the sad truth ! I was the only person in the US awre of the Mondays, Madchester etc ! Our taste here in the US SUCKS , except for the fool trying to tell me with a straight internet face that MC Tunes is better than ANY American rapper hahahahaaha !! Man do we send some po=po around the earth or what !?!? Thankyou Britian for the fine Music !

[Chrisruleshughes]

@Rob1973Monkey THOSE BANDS WERE GOOD, AND ARE STILL GOIN. ROLLING STONES MAN'S RIGHT MATE.. MADCHESTER MUSIC WAS 98 PERCENT SHITE. THATS WHY PEOPLE TOOK ACID TO DANCE TO IT.

[scudder91]

hiya mark, just want to say thanks too :-)

[hkphillw]

great docu mate ,was living in manchester at the time ,thought the world was going to change

[navahabass]

nicely said at the end there man. its about the spirit of the people, bollox to those who dismiss it, they dont know and never will. instead of bullshittin, these bands told it how it was, against a backdrop of beautiful, trippy sounds. favourite tunes from the era for me are 'moody places' by northside (class tune and v under-rated), and of course, 'this is the one' by the roses.

[STOKEOZ1967]

great 2 c this, i must admit 2 being stuck in the past, but the music from 88-91 was fuckin awesome, i wish i cud go back to them years!, top fashion, tunes, hot summers, rave on!

[kaliyuta]

why is it that the bands that didn't get as much recognition like the farm,the la's,northside,and inspiral carpets sort of fell threw the cracks.

[bohsblur]

inspiral carpets reform please.

moooooooo! cool as fuck.

[RadioKillaZ]

Mondays fukin wicked, derrick may legend, im impressed danny kelly was in the thick of it @ nme, good times im from london but still apprecite manchester & what it contributed back then, although mc tunes = knob - joe bloggs clothing terible - but still u cant have it all, watched all 8 clips, thanks for sharing great docu. 5*

[hookersandblow]

geezers need excitement

[RedBryn]

The music press building 'em up & knocking 'em down.......was it ever thus?They've been at that malarkey for donkey's years.....still are, too!

[WizLaudan73]

I remember watching this doc when it was first shown and me n my pals watched over and over on our vid. The Stone Roses should have been a bigger part of the doc though, they were number 1 in my eyes and still are. They were exiting times that changed me forever.

[fuggybootnling]

@WizLaudan73 There's a good reason why: this was produced on Granada, obviously with the support of Tony Wilson. And the Roses and Wilson were like oil and water, thus I'm sure the Roses would never have come within 500 feet of this film. Watch the Factory Records doc on YT - stuff like the Roses being managed by Wilson's Ex-GF pretty much meant they weren't going to be in this film.

[WizLaudan73]

@fuggybootnling Good insite there fuggybootnling...Thanks. I did suspect that Wilson was behind the fact most of the bands featured were from factory. I tend to agree with what you said about the roses not wanting to come within 500 feet of this doc. They always tried to distance themseves from that whole hacienda/factory scene.....Great times.

[tainax]

what's the name at 5:15 - 6: 15?

[pezwhatever]

Northside - Shall we take a trip

[backpackcamera]

Thanks for posting this, excellent doco. I agree the Roses should have been featured more, along with the mondays they are the most iconic band of the time. I was just a bit too young to be out clubbing in the late 80's but was lucky enough to see both of them live in later years. Top shelf!

[matrags]

Danny Kally is a prick.

[329002]

Really enjoyed that. Thanks for posting! My band played the Boardwalk in Manchester but that was later, 95/96. Remember wearing Joe Bloggs when I was at school and listening to the Mondays and the Roses. Quality.

[psychedelicshack]

Wow, never knew this doc even existed, it captures the music of a place and a time as magically as a film like Woodstock does. Fascinating!

[Evemeister12]

LOL at the broadcaster's disclaimer at the end. Very apt for the programme.

[sorrellhongkong]

such a shallow, manufactured 'scene'.

Merseybeat changed the world.

[DroylsdenGaz]

Oh, come off it!

[lolabeaz]

You sir, are an oxygen thief!

[twister5960]

Sorted.

[bcg75]

Whats the song during the credits at the end?

[monkeymajikman]

northside- shall we take a trip

[brady3249ers]

WTF does Bez do for this band? What does he contribute? Looks like someones retarded brother got loose and dances on stage.

[Andrew130290]

Yes that was exactly his place...and an endless supply of good x :)

[sptol]

Mark thank u so much for this i had it 19 yr ago on video was mad on that scene bedroom covered in Mondays Roses Posters Joe Bloggs hooded tops and Flares 12"Collection of Gerald,808 Roses Carpets yep even Northside it was a mad time the best it ever got 4 me and i was 17 then 36 now never be a time like that again Tony Wilson and Rob Gretton Thank you for so much Manchester misses you RIP

[MrPfd]

Shall we take a trip is a top tune, the best that northside did. Listen to it now and it takes you right back.

[rgnolan20]

i was there!..reading 'the dirt-motley crue' at the minute, and that whole scene completely passed me by, maybe the mondays are the english version of that, however, the shaun and the boys are charming scallies, not not disgusting glam rock scum bags!

[pattismithsonian]

Could someone please tell me the name of the songs at 2.02-3.46 and at the end? btw great documentary thank you very much

[MrPfd]

2.02 to 3.46 Step On

The tune at the end is Shall we take a trip (Northside)

[sinwow33]

As much as I loved the 90's and going raving i do not think my body and mind could take another round of that. I had one major come down after the 90's.

[grimkreaper]

wel said magicktorch . couldnt hav put it better . cheers for a quality series of vids mlucifersam

[MorningGlory1997]

BRING BACK THE 90s!!

[AshtonArcher]

Cheers, mate. That was a blast...from the past.

[mlucifersam]

[colinstog5]

[KnightTrain1979]

wow the black chick from the mondays in 24hour party people looks just like the one in the group.

this was filmed right after the peak and when madchester was already on the outs soon to be replaced by oasis and brit pop. All northside did was take the music of the roses and mondays and piss all over it. shit band using good music.

[strangevideoman]

is the same lass rowetta she is the band and the film.

[bishopquack]

[stevennolan727]
