Where would we be without Emmeline Pankhurst, Moss Side-born and the mother of the Suffragette movement? Manchester’s Pankhurst led the British suffragette movement in the early 1900s and campaigned tirelessly for the women’s right to vote. Coronation Street Of course, today you’re more likely to find a skinny-jeaned hipster singing odes about the perils of eating meat in Piccadilly Gardens than a priest preaching about it. The more things change… Alan Turing If you are familiar with the drinking habits of the English, then you’d know to expect this: there are LOTS of pubs in Manchester. I don’t know if there is any list that will be able to list literally all the pubs interspersed in the city, but this one does a good job (yes, visitmanchester.com is my go-to for most recommendations). Imperial War Museum: Learning about wars and conflicts is not everyone’s thing. It turns out that it indeed is my thing. I always mention this museum to people interested in exploring the city. It has a permanent exhibition which mainly shows exhibits pertaining to the two World Wars. There is also a space for temporary exhibitions, which deal with different topics over time and are on display for a few months.

People’s History Museum: “ the national museum of democracy, telling the story of its development in Britain: past, present, and future.“ The Metrolink, apparently the slowest city centre urban tram network in the world, delights and disappoints in equal measure. Delights in its convenience and disappoints with its pace. Nonetheless, while it lasted, the sense of creative possibility was real and intense. Oakenfold remembers Spike Island fondly, from his vantage point in a DJ booth up on a tower: “It was electric, a sea of people. It came right in the middle of something that was changing music - and we knew it. I thought, ‘Wow, I’m part of this!’”I swear, after the standoffish nature of Norfolk, it is a place built on friendliness, support and warmth. Weatherall would produce Primal Scream’s cornerstone album Screamadelica. “There were no boundaries,” Gillespie remembers. Weatherall also remixed My Bloody Valentine’s Soon for Creation (“I forced that one on the band,” laughs McGee, “and I was right to”) as well as James, Saint Etienne and many more. Farley connected with such bands as the Soup Dragons, from the Glasgow suburbs, and Scousers the Farm. Peter Hooton, Farm frontman, says Farley’s touch made them “the toast of London”, while Farley says: “It was the Farm reaching out to me that got my career off and running.” Hooton thinks the fraternity between scenes and cities was genuine. “During that summer,” he says, “there was a feeling that it was the end of an era and a new dawn.”

Walsh defines the turning point in his career as being assigned to go and shoot a Wednesday club night at the Hacienda called “Hot”, where he recalls looking around and thinking “What the hell is going on?”. The club dynamic had seemingly changed overnight, everyone in the club was absolutely going for it and were off their heads, the music had changed and everyone was wearing baggy sweatshirts, t-shirts, and dungarees. Walsh contrasts the style with an earlier picture he’d taken at the club; three boys standing on a podium wearing ties, waistcoats, and Ted Baker shirts.This Manchester image would make a stunning statement piece for your home and office or a unique gift for friends and family. It was a penny and pill drop moment and Walsh knew that whatever it was that was happening, he wanted to be there with his camera. The concept of abstinence from meat launched in 1815 after sermons performed by the ironically named Revered William Cowherd. Now, everyone from Natalie Portman to Superman is a vegetarian.

If not for the pop-flavored tunes, sweet vocal harmonies, and camp Mancunian accents that have always carried their songs, the Bee Gees would probably have been just another pop or disco group. However, by harnessing both of these genres simultaneously — thanks to their own upbringing in the midst of the Brit-beat scene, as well as the influence of soul producer Arif Mardin who introduced disco rhythms to their writing — the Gibb brothers were able to craft a fusion of forces that shook up the music world and continues to have seismic after-effects to this day. But perhaps the worm was in the apple all along. “If you went to the Hacienda,” remembers Happy Mondays singer Rowetta, “you’d be on the dancefloor all loved-up. But if you sat in the corner where we sat, everyone was on heroin, cocaine, speed and acid – and arguing about anything.” Transport has always featured in Manchester’s history. Manchester gave birth to the world’s first railway line which opened in 1830. Victoria Station is one of the world’s oldest continuously operating stations and it is still the second largest station in the UK. The SubmarineIn 1888, regular competitive football devised with the Football League in Manchester. Manchester United Football Club was formed in 1878 as Newton Heath LYR Football Club. The team initially played games against other departments and rail companies at their home ground at North Road, but by 1888 the club had become a founding member of The Combination, a regional football league Manchester United Kevin Godley spoke of 10cc’s “all for one and one for all” attitude and “very northern work ethic” as the principles that enabled the band to develop as both top-tier producers and ultimately as internationally acclaimed songwriters and artists.
