Manchester music "mogul" Tony Wilson is in a rage according to Uncut magazine, responding to Morrissey's remark that Joy Division were "incredibly boring", Wilson shrieks, "It speaks volumes that they've made a movie about me and they're making one about Ian Curtis and nobody is making one about the miserable **** from Altrincham."

Hey Tony, enjoy your memories, try not to be so bitter!

from the Grant-Lee Phillips' website news:

The relative portion: ..."What’s taken shape in the late hours of my downtime is a semi-acoustic rendering of cult classics by The Pixies, Joy Division, REM, The Cure, Robyn Hitchcock, The Church, Nick Cave, New Order, Echo And The Bunnymen and The Smiths. My aim was to highlight the lyrical and melodic strength of these songs. In some cases, free the song of it’s burdensome production, an unfortunate carbon dating of the period..."
