Harry is a bit of an unsung hero in Manchester, and someone we at the Archive are very keen to champion. Harry was inhouse photographer for Top of the Pops when it was filmed on Dickenson Road in Rusholme. We have added some new features to our site. Since the site went live four months ago, users have emailed some suggestions to us for which we are most grateful. The first new feature is the 'show me something' link in the navigation menu. When pressed it will show a random artefact for a band, artist or venue with a minimum of three uploaded items. We were going to call it the 'randomizer', and maybe we still will (one day). You may also notice that when someone posts a comment on an artefact you have uploaded you will receive an email letting you know. There will soon be a couple of other new features. We are adding a Dj section so you can link uploaded artefacts to a Dj. Also there will be an essays and writings section. We have a couple of items to start with for this section, but if you enjoy writing and love music from Manchester please feel free to write something related and email it to us. A Wythenshawe singer-songwriter named Doug Walker has got through to the final 30 contenders in the national 'O2 Undiscovered' competition with his self-penned track Stranger Than Fiction. He states his influences as ELO and Jeff Buckley... you can listen to his entry here . An early Oasis video of the band playing a gig to Sony executives in Scotland, Feb 1994 is being auctioned in Burnage. The video was filmed before the band had any releases. Presently it is priced at £1,500 with two days left until the auction closes. Sadly the beautiful Odeon on Oxford Rd will almost certainly be demolished soon. A campaign to save the fantastic art-deco building has failed and idiots are going to knock it down to make yet another glass eyesore. It's unbelievable that the building isn't listed. Time to say goodbye to another historic Manchester building...Noel Gallagher will headline the Manchester V Cancer concert on 30th March. Apparently a pair of tickets for the extra Take That dates are up on Ebay for £800. People camped outside the ticket office on the night before the tickets went on sale. (Metro News 09/03/07). A shop in Strangeways has been selling 'Gunchester T-shirts'. You can also buy an extra velcro patch to attach to your shirt which says either Moss Side, Salford, Cheetham Hill, Longsight or Whalley Range. I wonder if they do them in tots sizes? (Metro News 09/03/07). Russell Watson discovered he had a brain tumor whilst recording his latest Lp in Los Angeles. (Metro News 09/03/07 - ok, so i only read one paper a week!) and finally.... new Manc-country hopeful Cherry Ghost has had his debut release 'Mathematics' A-listed on Radio 2.If you have heard an interesting Manchester music story this week, or been involved in something please email it to us and we'll stick up here for posterity. Thanks.
