Notes
Features Tony Wilson going on about Manchester bands loving black American music. Or rather the Ineluctable Modality of how Mancunian Anglo Centric Songwriters (e.g. Buzzcocks, The Smiths, Oasis) are inextricably entwined with Mancunian songwriters in love with Black American musicians (New Order, Happy Mondays, Space Monkeys). Yes, it IS pretentious and AHW admits as much!
Also features the Space Monkeys discussing their influences. Made to introduce the band to Interscope (USA).
