Malcolm Whitehead RIP

Just in case others weren’t aware, Malcolm Whitehead who fronted Factory’s IKON arm, has passed away.

Mr Whitehead filmed Joy Division at Bowden Vale and made the ‘Joy Division’ film that is briefly shown in Grant Gee’s film.

Very sad news indeed. Another important Factory person who is no longer with us.

The following three music videos have been posted by IKON on YouTube as a mark of respect:

Saddened to learn of his death. Seemed like a nice friendly guy from what I saw in that interview with him on the Grant Gee JD doc.
