I thought he was the ugly one from the Pogues - now that would have been funny!

Happy mondays were one of the most influential bands of the late 80's early 90's

A totally unrelated comment to this thread chuck - but just to say I dreamt about you last night....(even though we've never met). You were very disappointed in me for some reason, can't remember why now. ;-)

I think the term "legend" gets banded about a lot these days but the Happy Mondays were a big part of the Manchester music scene and are important in that sense. Dunno though about legend though, probably not!?
|
|
Oh, And I would say the majority of people who know about music from the 90's will know who he is.
|
|
Happy Mondays....fantastic band. Together with The Stone Roses....oh I miss my yoof :-(
|
|
There is a point that dreams become nightmares, salla.... and if you're dreaming of me i'd say you've crossed that line :)
(and sure I'd never be disappointed in you really :) x )

I wouldn't call him a legend but as Chucky says they were influential along with The Stone Roses and Primal Scream. I miss my yoof too Ummmm.
|
|
Bez was the legend ......
|
|
Did anyone else pee themselves laughing when Linford and the others spent half an hour trying to light a fire with sticks and then Shaun casually walked off and lit a fag with his lighter!
|
Your twistin my melon man....CALL THE COPS... |
|
dean martin ,sinatra, nat king cole,perry como,bobby darin, mario lanza,matt munro,they were what i would call legends.
|
|
Add Johnny Mathis,Tony Bennett,Bing Crosby and Louis Armstrong to your list,cornacob.
|
|
Well that would depend on how old you are..!! :-)
|
|
Total prat. Bez wasn't even in the original line-up. He was a drug taking prat who only 'danced' , and was a supposed percussionist, and 'chemist' - they were managed by Phil Saxe, and then 'discovered' by Tony Wilson of The Hacienda' 'Madchester' - and no, that's not a spelling mistake.
|
|
Everyone has their own opinion of who is a legend, therefore I would choose David Bowie, Prince and Freddie Mercury.
|
|
I would add to that - Bob Marley.
|
|
I'm not knocking your choice,ummm.
|
|
fantastic band, defo a legend to me!
|
|
I agree that the Happy Mondays were very influential but it does seem that anyone who has been around for more than 10 minutes is a 'legend' nowadays. It's like using 'hero' to describe someone going about their daily duties, like policemen, soldiers, firemen, etc.
It's made the words legend, hero, star, etc. meaningless.
