Today I talked about a report that celebrity chef Jamie Oliver found a stash of Joy Division master recordings when excavating the basement of a former bank for his new restaurant in Manchester, England. According to NME:
The new restaurant, which is being built in a former branch of Midland bank, was being excavated when the tapes were found, alongside guns, gold and jewellery. The total value of the haul is £1.1 million, reports Holy Moly. Oliver has since given everything found in the basement to the treasury.
Here is a great doc about the Manchester music scene from BBC 4: Factory – Manchester from Joy Division to Happy Mondays
Coincidence Control Network, Episode the 13th is scheduled to go live this Wednesday, February 22.
