Description
-
From 1977 onwards, this building saw an endless stream of bands from Manchester, Liverpool and from all over the British Isles pass through its doorways as it became the place for groups to record and to buy and hire their equipment.
Joy Division recorded here from 1978 onwards and had their bass equipment custom built on the ground floor.
