Anthony Wilson, Music Impressario (BBC Radio 4), PopMogul (BBC Radio 2), founder of Factory records and the Hacienda, has died at the age of 57. He had been suffering from kidney cancer and was apparently fed up with everyone suddenly being nice to him.
He died on Friday evening at the Christie Hospital surrounded by family.

I share my thoughts on Wilson's death at www.fatroland.com.
It seemed like he hardly ever agreed with anyone on anything (I sure had run ins with him from time to time - he once made one of my admin peeps cry!), but Manchester is the poorer, less vibrant, less alive somehow without him.
