Factory once: and how apropos. Once upon a time. And it was a fairy story, part Walt Disney, part Robert Crumb, part Brothers Grimm.
Always there was music, a lot of it remarkable, and always the people, the talented lunatics who swirled around this excuse for a record label.
Screw the sleeve notes, how can you explain a party that never stopped?
It helps to have good tunes; here's fifteen of them and a picture of Jeff, the receiver in the bank's vault.
Fifteen songs and a little irony. Hell, this is Manchester isn't it?
Factory Records 1978-92
Factory too... the story continues... after all.
Thanks to Midland Bank for looking after our masters and thanks to the Captain for compiling this release.
