    What a fantastic track this is...many a memory has come flooding back (not sure if they are mine or not though.... :D)

    I feel as though Shaun Ryder has read my mind and expressed how I view this track in the most eloquent way possible.

    Absolute quality!

    Remember many a time this was played in my old clubbing days!

    :lol:
  • the first time i saw happy mondays was at a gig in a very big tent in finsbuty park in 1987(?) they were the first on the bill below the railway children, a certain ratio and new order - me and "mon brov" stood there (with a couple of other mates) and could not believe (understand/comprehend) this incredible sound/noise that was the happy mondays - needless to say i was straight to F L Moore records in Stevenage the next week to get my hands on Squirel G-Mex etc - i never became a big club-head but those first early years of the HMs were great - wrote for luck - it is an incredible sound - apologies for bore but the guy called gerald track brought it all back/hit a nerve.................
  • Quality choon, too slow here though was played a bit quicker when I was ahem, raving :oops:

    Or was it me that was going a bit quicker? :twisted:

    Did people really listen to this? I thought it was some sort of high point in Britain's cultural history from the posts on here, but I listened to the end and will never get that 3:41 back.

    I'm going to contact my lawyers, you twisted muthafookers.

    Is that really 1988? Blimey. Lil Louis undanceable tune was only a year after it...

    Mind you, it's 20 years since Nevermind... Oh god, I'm old, I've bought a bike and I've clad myself in lycra
