Monroe, Jazz (15 July 2022). "Happy Mondays Bassist Paul Ryder Dies at 58". Pitchfork . Retrieved 16 July 2022. Oh, happy day: Shaun Ryder's redemption". Independent.ie. 24 July 2017 . Retrieved 12 November 2020. Hour Party People," which tells the story of the Manchester music scene from the first Sex Pistols concert until the last bankruptcy, shines with a kind of inspired madness. It is based on fact, but Americans who don't know the facts will have no trouble identifying with the sublime posturing of its hero, a television personality named Tony Wilson, who takes himself seriously in a way that is utterly impossible to take seriously.

Following a divorce in 1991 from his childhood sweetheart Alison, Ryder had a five-year relationship with Astrella Leitch, daughter of pop singer Donovan. His continuing drug addiction then led him to be sectioned, spending time in a Salford psychiatric unit. a b c Smith, Evan (1 December 2013).

The highlight of the film, arguably even more than Frank Cottrell Boyce's screenplay, is Steve Coogan as Tony Wilson. As everyone reading this probably knows, Coogan based his famed Alan Partridge character on Tony Wilson's career as a television reporter, so he's really playing a variation on Alan Partridge here. What's amazing about Coogan's performance is that he manages to draw even this Partridge fan into Tony Wilson's world so much that I didn't care about any similarity. It's still a stunning comic performance, and excellent during the darker, more serious scenes in the film as well. I'd go as far as saying that it's one of the best male performances of the decade. The rest of the cast is too large to go through one by one, but everyone is excellent here, some going for a sort of slightly altered impersonation of the real-life person they're playing, some creating their own version.

Happy Mondays performed before another re-formed act, Rage Against the Machine, at the 2007 Coachella Music Festival in Indio, California. They were introduced by Tony Wilson. Bez missed the show because he could not get into the US due to "passport issues". [23] The band then toured throughout the summer of 2007 including a trip to the Numusic Festival in Norway. They played Splendour in the Grass in Australia in July 2009, and the UK V Festival in August 2009. A second LP, Bummed, followed in 1988 – with Mark “Bez” Berry joining the line-up on percussion, or most visibly as an enthusiastic maraca shaker and vibes man – and, as their popularity spread, the band toured Britain and mainland Europe (1988-9), then North America (1989). His return to Happy Mondays five years later was followed by a much happier phase with his brother and bandmates, touring Europe, New Zealand and Australia.

Royal Shakespeare Company actor Paul Popplewell took the role of Paul Ryder, while the real bass guitarist had a cameo as a gangster. His departure from the band in 2001 and move to the US spelled the end of Happy Mondays until they were reunited – minus him – in 2004. He said he had ditched drugs and “being in a band with my brother was not going to be conducive to sobriety”. Hour Party People is the story of Factory Records, a defiantly eccentric independent record label based in Manchester, England, which discovered acts as influential and diverse as Joy Division and the Happy Mondays. As the film opens, Wilson is attending the first, legendary Sex Pistols concert in Manchester, England. Here and elsewhere, director Michael Winterbottom subtly blends real newsreel footage with fictional characters so they all fit convincingly into the same shot. Wilson is transfixed by the Pistols as they sing "Anarchy in the U.K." and sneer at British tradition. He tells the camera that everyone in the audience will leave the room transformed and inspired, and then the camera pans to show a total of 42 people, two or three of them half-heartedly dancing in the aisles.
