    Yorkshire Music Scene! Empty Yorkshire Music Scene!

    All the chat about the origins of the leeds thing and who is responsible...

    There is a whole book about it.



    Yorkshire's rock and pop music scene celebrated in new book

    I'll Go To T'Foot Of Our Stage: The Story Of Yorkshire Pop Music has been penned by Normanton-born writer Craig Ferguson.



    Published Date: 28 October 2009
    By Paul Robinson
    Yorkshire's rock and pop music scene may have spent years in the shadows of Merseyside, Manchester and London.
    Today, though, it's riding high like never before, thanks to the efforts of bands like Kaiser Chiefs and The Cribs.

    Now a new book has turned the spotlight on the White Rose county's musical purple patch of the Noughties.

    Published today, I'll Go To T'Foot Of Our Stage: The Story Of Yorkshire Pop Music has been penned by Normanton-born writer Craig Ferguson.
    But Craig is keen to point out that his book is about much more than the Kaisers-led boom of the last few years.

    He told the Yorkshire Evening Post: "There are a lot of bands from the past that should have been big but, for whatever reason, didn't get the success they deserved.

    "It'd be wrong to think that music in Yorkshire started with the Kaiser Chiefs and I hope this book shows that."

    Fondly-remembered acts covered in the book include Wakefield's Be Bop Deluxe, Leeds's Cud and Keighley's Terrorvision.

    There is space, too, for more obscure names like late Eighties indie contenders The Pale Saints and Shadows-influenced Sixties band The Raiders, both based in Leeds.

    Going even futher back, the book features Leeds United-supporting crooner Ronnie Hilton, hailed as "Yorkshire's first pop star" on the strength of the 17 singles he took into the UK top 20 between 1955 and 1961.

    Local musicians such as The Wedding Present's Dave Gedge and Jez Willis from Utah Saints also lent their support to the project by giving interviews

    Craig, who has written for New Musical Express and Record Mirror, said: "Most cities in the county now have a flourishing music scene.

    "It's about time - you wouldn't bet against it continuing and getting bigger and better in years to come."

    Ian Clayton. That man reminds of the point on a Monday evening where you feel so fragile that you'll watch any old shit on TV cos you can't be arsed turning it over.

    Plus, it makes you feel really bad about yourself as he sees wonders in everything and you have to fill up on class A's to have a good time.

    Mark has a lot of negativity. I think Foz should recruit him for his positive thinking cult..

    Where was the negativity in that post? I wasn't knocking Ian Clayton. I was merely commenting on the fact that he could find joy and beauty in the relatively mundane yet I had to cane it on a weekend to have a good time. Because of this he made me feel guilty.

    You are very special. Along with the current Mrs Devaney you have that special ability to get a rise out of me even when I am in a good mood.

    Hmmm, bit much for me to fathom after I've just woken from my afternoon nap. Anyway, the reason I use that term is have a friend who's dad has been married about 8 times. It got to the point where he referred to his step mothers as the current Mrs xxx. I thought it was funny.
