Product Information
If you ve got to be told by someone, then it s got to be me, sang Shaun Ryder on the Happy Mondays' first album. As lead singer of the Mondays, Shaun epitomised the Madchester scene, combining all the excesses of a true rock'n'roll star with music and lyrics that earned him the title of 'the greatest poet since Yeats', by impresario Tony Wilson. After a Glastonbury headline slot and world tours of the early '90s, his drug troubles reached their height and the Mondays split. Two years later Shaun reinvented himself with new band Black Grape, once again topping the charts. These heady highes were matched by the bottomless lows of bankruptcy and continuing addiction, but time and again Shaun would defy the odds with new critically acclaimed albums and collaborations, proving his musical genius. Now, for the first time, Shaun Ryder is finally ready to tell the myth and legend in his own words.Product Identifiers
