In the week that Happy Mondays have had their Monarchy Festival appearance cancelled,CTR have decided to stop listening to all this old/new stuff, and to rediscover the sadly overlooked sounds of Madchester and the Baggy beats of 89-91.
Here’s 10 from that great era..Ok, some of them could be a little obscure to some people.
1. The Apples-Beautiful People
2. The Paris Angels-Perfume
3. Airstream-Airstream (J Robertson Remix)
4. The Real People-Open Up Your Mind (Let Me In )
5. St Etienne-Kiss and Make Up (Midsummer Madness Mix)
6. World Of Twist-She’s A Rainbow (Ext Mix)
7. Primal Scream-Come Together (Hypnotone Remix)
8. New FADS-It’s Not What You Know
9. Bounce the Mouse-Sugar and Spice
10. Parchman-Ride
I don’t know where you’d track half of these down, but good luck.

CTR is against the BNP and all that it stands for. If you are in the UK today and old enough to vote-Make YOUR vote count and ensure that they don't get a foothold in European politics.
Watching this video will be enough to explain why.
