Editorial Reviews
Book Description
In the late 80s, Factory Records was at the height of its success thanks to two bands - Joy Division and New Order - and the single-minded company director, Anthony H. Wilson. This is the fascinating story of the rise and fall of this influential independent UK record company. Drawing on exclusive interviews, Mike Middles uncovers the real story behind the company that fell so dramatically from unprecedented global success to an all-time low by 1992, when the back catalogue had been sold off and its key bands were in disarray. The classic warts-and-all history of Factory Records, told by one of Manchester's leading music writers.
