FAC 501

Anyone who was around in the Madchester era will be aware of Factory Records rather ‘ahem’ unique Catalogue numbering scheme (FAC 8, FAC 191 & FAC 215/216 were all personal favourites of mine) but you can add FAC 501 to that list – it’s Tony Wilson‘s coffin and funeral. He might have been a complete ar5e but at least he freely acknowledged it (& before anyone slags me off for dissing the dead – I speak from personal experience – he was a complete c0ck but I still have the utmost respect for what he achieved and the size of his ambition.).
