Cd box set reissue of the first 5 classical albums released in 1989.

Remembering Factory Records' Tony Wilson on what would have been his 73rd Birthday...
Might be time to watch 24 Hour Party People again!
Thank you so much, Tony...

There was no legendary last night as depicted in the film. I got my climactic speech for that scene out of the way with a clear head, then took half an E. It was – what’s the fashionable word – an immersive experience. We weren’t particularly well behaved. ❞ → https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2023/feb/06/how-we-made-24-hour-party-people-steve-coogan-michael-winterbottom

It's been twenty-plus years since I owned a turntable, but I have this album on vinyl.

Couldn't find a good picture online of the unfolded CD booklet of 8vo's gorgeous cover for Obey the Time by The Durutti Column, so I recreated it from scratch. Not really sure why. Wish I could print it big and frame it. #design #GraphicDesign #FactoryRecords

Peter Saville: The hunt is on to locate an object that truly qualifies as “a sign of the times”. In 1977, the first Factory club night in Manchester was advertised with a poster using the now-famous symbol of a health and safety warning, urging workers to protect their ears from loud noise. But the original sign used in the artwork is missing. https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2023/jan/22/factory-flaw-hunt-for-stolen-1977-sign-that-put-manchester-on-pop-music-map #FactoryRecords #PeterSaville #GraphicDesign

If their SF show last weekend *really* was our last chance to see them then I’m pretty grateful.

As well as #AlanRankine and his work with #TheAssociates he also did a fair bit of production work, including with #CocteauTwins #PaulHaig and this fairly unknown artist #AnnaDomino who was jointly on #LesDisquesDuCrepuscule and #FactoryRecords Alan did all the instrumentation on this album. 💔
