From Manchester with Love

The Life and Opinions of Tony Wilson

Co-Founder of Factory Records and general music mogul powerhouse, Tony Wilson was not afraid to speak his mind or put himself above the parapet. A huge advocate for the cool that is Manchester, Wilson championed both the Manchester music scene through the legendary Hacienda and the sheer force of his personality. Renowned music writer Paul Morley knew Wilson very well and that affection, knowledge and truthfulness shines through the text. Whether you lived the life of Madchester, or love it now, this is a book that celebrates a specific part of pop culture history while evaluating one of the guiding factors in its significance, warts and all.
