The title of this album sets the tone for what you’d expect to find at a hole in the wall dive bar with a hot blues band cranking up on the stage….Juke Joint Boogie! Kyle Yardley with the lyrics of a bluesman who’s paid his dues in life along with dirty blues harmonica leads the band. Texas guitar slinger, Elliot Sowell lends the raw, greasy guitar to accent every word of Kyle’s stories of the blues. Jon Wilson on bass guitar, locked in with Bill Edwards on drums to form a solid rhythm section. St. Louis blues musician, Tom Maloney was called in to put some smooth rhythm guitar on the track “High Maintenance Woman”. A well rounded, eight tracks of blues that will make anyone want to boogie until the sun comes up.

From Buzzcocks to Britpop, Manchester North Of England is the ultimate tribute to the independent output of that most important and iconic of musical cities, with 146 tracks across seven CDs in a deluxe box set.
Compiled by the team behind other Cherry Red box sets (Scared To Get Happy, Still In A Dream, Millions Like Us, Action Time Vision, etc.), this tells the story of how indie music exploded in Manchester after the rush of Punk and the seminal release of the Buzzcocks’ Spiral Scratch EP.
With exhaustive sleeve-notes by the city’s leading music journalist of the era, Mick Middles, and a foreword by Mark Radcliffe, Manchester North Of England includes many of the key bands from the late 70s to the early 90s – Joy Division, The Fall, New Order, James, Happy Mondays, Stone Roses, Morrissey, John Cooper Clarke, 808 State, A Certain Ratio, Durutti Column, The Charlatans and last but not least, Oasis.
Although the scene was dominated by blokes with guitars, which is reflected here, Manchester North Of England also doffs its cap to reggae, soul, singer-songwriters, hip-hop, avant garde, techno/industrial and dance music.
Inspired by Bop Cassettes’ 1988 compilation (name + cover image), the box set is being presented in conjunction with MDMA (Manchester District Music Archive).
Many of the tracks appear on CD for the first time, from the Punk explosion through Factory Records, post-punk, the jangly C86 period, Madchester, Indie-Dance and the early 90s transition into what would become Britpop.
