Did any of you Brits see the documentary on Factory Records on C4 last night? Shaun Rhyder is so fucked now. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
mornin all-i didnt-but he's always been fucked. ever since he gave up the skag and the crack. see? hard hard drugs aint so bad. full of vitamins and minerals and sweetex and ratpoison and anything else thats powdery and white. ps, is that sinbad from brookie having a 'tete a tete' with harold bishop? C.O.O.L.!! |

It looked like he had mild form of parkinsons. |
||||||||
|

Ken: nah man, he was soooo fucked. Way more fucked than I've ever seen him before. His face and neck were really puffed up. He was talking like Ali too. The pic was actually Lou and Harold. I'm surprised you could make it out. |

superior vision due to carrot juice.. man thats a shame. ever since he got way into the spliffs, guiness, hargan daas and body building supplements (no joke) . i know he looked a bit stoned on the old 'step on' and 'kinky afro' vids and stuff, but now its ike lookin at two diff people. how old is he now? 40 ish? looks a lot older.....as well as larger. |
||||||||

He was taking body building supplements? What the hell for? I've seen him before and he could be quite sharp, but last night he was gone. |

true story-i read an interview with him in Q or select bout' ten years ago or when ever the first black grape album came out-he was sat in a curry house with a huge balti in front of him and several pints of guiness-he was saying that he had got really into haagan daas when coming off the crack and had started taking body buiding supplement because he'd weanted to get in shape-he assumed that by taking it he'd get fit-didnt realise you had to exercise at the sam time. true story. there was a photo of him sat on the toilet in a cubicle smoking a huge spliff with a pint of guiness in his hand. he looked all chubby, like moley from 'wind in the willows'. |
||||||||

He looks fucking awful. I can't believe he forgot the exercise part of the equation. I saw him on Jo Whiley's crap TV show a few years ago. He was on about how he and a mate climbed on the roof of a venue that Kate Bush was playing and saw her go outside for a fag. He said she smoke about "ten fags in a row the fuckin' pig. Put me right off her". |

he's great shaun ryder. apparently he plays his dad in the '24 hr party people' film. i saw an old happy monday photo of him sat on a stage (again smoking a huge joint) with bez-and in the background was his dad, ravin' with a huge viking helmet on-ripped to his tits. absolutely fucking textbook. |
||||||||

Those people seem untouchable. People like Keith Richards and Rhyder who do so many drugs and seem to scrape through ok. Though judging by last night Rhyder might be another casualty. Bez sounded so thick: "Errrr, what's that word? Yeah stalking. We was stalking Factory Records" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
haha!! what ever happened to ryders 'acting' career??? and didnt bez do a bit of porridge for sellin e's after the mondays split??? i also remember a story bout shaun being kicked out by his missus for because he kept breaking her hoover for a laugh... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Didn't he try to kill her too? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah-you're thinking of james brown... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I may be getting mixed up. Ozzy tried it too. He was married to Donovan's daughter right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah-that rings a bell. i remember reading once as well that he phoned up tony wilson when the mondays were in jamaicai recording 'yes please' saying that he had the master tapes and he was going to destroy them if wilson didnt forward some money for crack'....i hope he doesnt just fade into oblivion..maybe after the disaster that was 'stupid stupid stupid' hell return eh? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah they got £50 for the tapes which had no vocal tracks on ha,ha. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
50 quid? was that all wilson sent them? i still quite like 'yes please'-its a good album. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've only gor Thrills, Pills and Bellyaches. Black Grape's first record was cool. |
||||||||
|

theres quite a good interview with tony wilson in this weeks big issue-good review of the film as well, although it does mention that steve coogan does a bit of an alan patridge when being wilson-suprise suprise. also shows ian curtis hanging himself as well. mmmnnn. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Steve Coogan, good as he is, is a bit of a one trick pony. He always seems to slip into the man Partridge. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
true true. he did a series a while back didnt he? forget what it was called -had six difference characters...coogans run? i liked partridge on 'on the hour' radio show, he had more of a nervous paranoid side-still cockey but you could imagine him going home and just crying all night. |
||||||||

The best Happy Mondays record is without doubt "24 Hour Party People....". It was produced by former Velvet Undergrounder, John Cale... I luv it! |
||||||||
|
|

|
lazyitis off bummed. thats the one i have found memories of. and the first track off side two of pills n thrills...forget what its called... |

Did they cover any Durutti Column in this Factorymentary? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No, no Durritti Column. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
theres a certain ratio comp of old rarities been re-released....mmmnnnn |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Thats a SHAME! The Durutties were one of the truly GREAT bands on Factory! They were postrockin' even long before the stupid term "postrock" was invented... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
erm...joy division?? they were the trully great bands on factory thankyou very much. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i meant 'band' damn these busy fingers of mine... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Sure, I love Joy Division, but I feel that Durutti Column is one of the more underrated bands on Factory! They have had a much more important influence on current "independent" music than many, many other bands an should at least be given some of the credit for this. Hell, I only discovered the Durutties a few years ago and I was shocked at how I could have missed out on a band with so much influence on the music I listened to then and still listen to today. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh, alright then. for a minute there i thought youd overlooked the division! :) |

DC ... thats Vini Rilly isn't it?...he's is one brilliant guitarist and songwriter... Pity he's not better know... probably most famous for that album he did with Morrissey... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, thats him! I did not like that album he did with Morrisey, tho... His guitar is divine! Have you heard how I don't think Disco Inferno (Che Records, Rough Trade Records) would have their brilliant guitar-sound if it wasnt for Vinni... |
