Growing
up on the outskirts of Manchester, the Buzzcocks were the local heroes
of all of us at school with a punk rock leaning. I asked for and
received Love Bites on Christmas Day 1978. I never saw them live until
the reunion gig at Manchester Apollo in 1989 - what an amazing event
that was. Around the same time, the CD box set Product was released and
set the standard for retrospective re-releases in the new CD age and
re-acquainted many of us with our dusty old vinyl, reminding us of how
magnificent they were. We hadn't imagined it. Thankfully the reconvened
Buzzcocks continued to make magnificent albums (the latest The Way is a
fabulous body of work) and tour through to this very, sad, day. I last
saw the Buzzcocks live at Rebellion in August. 'Whatever Happened
To?' - they won't be saying that about you Pete. Thanks from all
of us Stockport school boys. Phil Singleton www.sex-pistols.net
