@BRIYONCE1 what a load of bollocks!! Joy Divison - Unknown Pleasures - recorded at Strawberry Studio's by Martin Hannett (RIP) in Stockport, Greater Manchester. (also to answer your point EVEN if other records were recorded in London, they were written, demo'd and inspired by Manchester.. fuckin useless comment from someone who evidently is NOT from manchester! Manchester is the UK's number 1 music city!

what does it matter if drugs were the major downfall to why the hacienda shut down, drugs are also what gives it half its legendary status. also because it shut down you crave to experience times there where as if it was still running it would be mediocre and less iconic, these days with this shit music thats out at the mo :/

@MintLunty ...because he's talking as though he's from there, regardless of who he worked for at the time.

@Wearenotreallyhere Perhaps you're right about the year, after all, it had been going eight years by then, but its downfall was drug dealers and mismanagement. I don't recall too many pissed up 'office types' but there were loads of scally Mancs and Salford from '88 on. The club changed after acid house.

It probably had more to do with Tony Wilson's several poor financial decisions.

The creative process is spurred on when you live in a city {town} where it rains a lot and it`s cold. All manchesters notable seminal albums where recorded in London.
Manchester is the Englands 4th best town.

The bollox above is exactly why the Hac was over by 1990, full of pissed up professional 'Mancs' and was it's ultimate downfall.
