iPod song of the week – RIP Tony Wilson
In case you’re not a historian of the Manchester scene, Tony Wilson was a man who truly loved music and the impresario who brought Manchester’s music to the wider world in the 70’s, 80’s, and 90’s. He died this weekend of cancer at the age of 57. I just got home from a weekend away to find this out and I find it terribly depressing. You would think that and the miserable cold I’m experiencing would lead me to make a choice like Joy Division or old New Order but Tony Wilson seemed like too happy a guy for that.
