Mick Middles - Factory: The Story Of The Record Label Factory Records are, to those who don't know, the brainchild and record label of Tony Wilson, the man who was behind the Hacienda in Manchester which was the forefront of the introduction of house music and rave culture to Britain, and the "Madchester" phenomenon of the 80s and early 90s. This era was just before my time so naturally I'm...

I'm talking on a small scale here, not ya Pitchforks or Metacritics etc. Personal sites written by one or a couple of people with a real passion for music, often a goldmine for obscure artists. I direct you to Adrian's Album Reviews: http://www.adriandenning.co.uk/albums.html It's a great site, full of incisive and frequently hilarious reviews. It concentrates mostly on rock, but branches out into...

I was thrown back to a dark day this week. No, not the day that Bryan Adams went to number one with Everything I do but that day when Le Petit Merde signed for the darkside. Showing that our border controls are not tight enough he wandered back into the country to be inducted into the SFA Hall of Fame with Celtic Legends Maley, Delaney, Auld and Lambert. Unsure why he was being inducted on the same...

Certain cities have various scenes that have been established over time. For bands that get involved, it’s all fine and dandy for them. Look no further than Oasis and The Smiths from Manchester who set the bar for others to follow. But then again, not everyone wants to crank out indie music which continually sounds stale after every release. Still, a solid fan base will lap it up. Other towns...

It’s unlikely that Morrissey is having a hugely enjoyable time on his current tour. First, he was hospitalized. Then, he was hit by a flying cup of beer and called a premature halt to a concert in Liverpool. On Tuesday (Nov. 17) this week a further incident occurred in Hamburg, when Morrissey made an uncharacteristic outburst toward a fan. Now, a video of the altercation has emerged. It is alleged...

When a world champion bronc rider marries a collegiate national all-around cowgirl, it's pretty easy to assume that horses will remain a vital part of their lives. That's exactly what happened for Bill and Carole Smith. The former rodeo champions have turned their love of horses into a thriving business, even during tough economic times. The Smiths own the WYO Quarter Horse Ranch and this past year...

posted by Jeanne Munn Bracken Now that the New England mystery conference Crime Bake is over, it's time to get into the holidays. I have admitted already that I've bought a few gifts, including some when I was on vacation. (Souvenirs R Us). But before we go into Christmas Crazy Mode (and I plead guilty as a carrier of that disorder), let's give thanks for what we have. It's a tough year for a lot of...

This band were recommended to us and so I thought I'd open it up for discussion. I think they show real promise so I thought I'd let Schonberg and Sas have a listen and see what they thought. Schonberg thought Mansfield Holiday had elements of Art Brut and Pigeon Detectives, perhaps lacking the wit and catchy choruses of those two. However he did say that "any band that quote The Wedding Present...
