OSM....

I am watching a fucking awesome program at the minute called (OSM)"Other Side OF Midnight" with Tony W, its the party edition, the last one I think. Can anyone remember when this cool program was first broadcast on our tv screens ? Does anyone remember the party edition as I would like to know who the opening band was Somebody (Cool As) ?? I dont know! A Guy Called Gerald Happy Mondays ect. I would like to see more of these programs if anybody has any full episodes could you give me a shout. "Im not fishing for (the happy one) as i already have a copy of this.

Is that the one where some bird in a bikini gets her paps out but they blur it, I vaguely remeber that one i was drinking very heavy at the time, it was around 1990 - 92 hooky apeared on one episode playing the happy one which I think is on here somewhere.

I dont have any recordings of it but it was a bloody good program, even though wilson was at his most pretentious.

T-Coy - 'Carino'

they featured Mike Pickering in the line-up and Simon Topping (ACR and, just once, Joy Division) playing the congas.

cheers JJ, I thought I recognised Simon Topping.

Did this mob ever release anything on cd?

not too sure, I think tracks will have appeared on various early Deconstruction compilation CDs. The one with a picture of the queue at the Hacienda on the sleeve comes to mind for one.

this is the place to look.

Yeah it was. Its on that Stone Roses DVD that came out a while back.

That sounds like the 1990 Warehouse Party:

T-Coy - Cariño A Guy Called Gerald - Voodoo Ray Happy Mondays - Mad Cyril, WFL

Just bought this from a bloke off ebay... Does anyone have the episode of OSM which features Gerald playing Voodoo Ray beside a pool (Victoria Baths 'Wet' Hacienda rave) and the very first performance of Pacific? It was broadcast in November 1988 - been trying to find a copy of that for yonks...

Oh yeah, and for those trivia fans, Annette's "Dream 17" was T-Coy (Mike Pickering, Simon Topping, Ritchie Close) + A Guy Called Gerald - big hac tune at the time...

Well, I am fishing for a decent broadcast copy of the Happy One on DVD - it's a much better version than the one on the Excerpts CD. Anyone?

Is this the Factory compilation on Ebay?
