Tony Wilson had a heart attack this week & after suffering prolonged illness died comfortably yesterday in Manchester. He was a hoot. He played records, he did telly, he started record companies, he made glitzy crap, he started the Hacienda club, he play his part in so many roles. Most of them of such importance to our contemporary culture and media that at first it's just too easy to think he had the long difficult death coming and it doesn't matter if people don't make or do that sort of music or telly or if Manchester still isn't free. He was 57 years of age. It is highly unlikely that such an entrepeneurial professional gobshite will ever arrive on the scene with such ironic affability. May he rest in peace. ... read full story / add a comment
