Granada Television's 'Celebration: Madchester - The Sound of the North'

At the height of the so-called 'Madchester' scene or 'baggy' if you will, this captured everything in all its glory. For a start Northside featured in a major item. Footage shows the band in interview, rehearsal, live in concert and even at work (well, the one band member who worked); Central Station Design in their studio creating something out of a pane of glass and loads of ephemera; Happy Mondays in Amsterdam - including Derek Ryder soundchecking for his son!; also includes 808 State and MC Tunes; Celebration was a Granada Television arts strand and undoubtedly Anthony H Wilson (So It Goes, The Other Side of Midnight, Remote Control, Content) must have had some influence in the making of a programme featuring Northside from his own record label.

Should I admire UK music or just Mancunian music? Let's be honest, the best british bands come from Manchester: Happy Mondays, Inspiral Carpets, Stone Roses, The Charlatans, James, etc. Probs 'Madchester' is the best music scene of the world in the last 40 years. Fuck off Grunge and rest of scenes of the world. Long live Mancs. Respect from Mexico.

'Baggy' started being used as a term around 1990 rather than 'Madchester' to incorporate the Madchester-type bands that weren't from Manchester, such as Flowered Up and The Farm. So in '89 you had the Roses, Mondays, Inspirals (Madchester) but when other bands emerged of a similar ilk from around the country, the whole scene( including the Roses and Mondays) was referred to as 'Baggy'.

I don't mean to come off as thick and dim-witted, but, is there a difference between baggy and madchester? :-|

The song 6 minutes in is really nice and good singing. I notice the name 808 state - I never knew they were from Manchester. I had a remix of Pacific state. just found another that is good .Doman & Gooding - Pacific State - Afterlife Remix (Nocturnal Groove) . I tend to like music like this.
