Factory records, The Hacienda, the modern Dance club....the guy did it all.

Joy Division alone ranks him at the top.

I don't know who he is/was. Of course I never said anything either. Who was he? I take it some sort of entertainment mogul?

Wow, I can't believe I hadn't heard of him considering everything he was into. Of course, I am on the other side of the pond. I guess he was much like Dick Clark or Tony Morola are in the US.
