    amazing the quality of bands that come from the Greater Manchester area. It must have been a great place to grow up in terms of music

    Blur are from Essex. Correction, some of Blur are from Essex. Correction to correction, one of Blur is from Essex!

    Oh well, give me an easy life and a peaceful death.

    Simply Red should be on that list too. Not everyone cup of tea but they are a good band

    Remember saw Stone Roses in the Etihad a few years back. Great Occasion, the Buzzcocks were even on the bill but if I remember correctly they were the opening band with the stadium very quite for there set

    Good to see they mentioned James ..this song sounds more relevant in 2020 than in the 90's the only song I liked on that album .

    Don't forget The Fall. One of the best bands to come out of Manchester.
