• Big Beat presents one of its most prestigious compilations ever, with a project that has taken almost two years to put together. A well-deserved, all-encompassing CD tribute to the late Martin Hannett - probably the highest-profile UK record producer of the Punk and post-Punk era. • Apart from the Smiths, Hannett produced almost every one of the most important Manchester bands -from the Buzzcocks and Magazine, via Joy Division and New Order through to the Stone Roses and Happy Mondays - and almost all of those that he produced are represented here. • Repertoire ranges from big UK chart hits (‘Pretty In Pink’, ‘Jilted John’, ‘Electricity’) to hard-to-find cuts by non-Manchester bands such as U2 and the Only Ones, and encompasses everything from Punk to New Romantic to Indie Dance. • One of the few post-1970s UK record producers to be as revered as the records he produced, Hannett died in 1991 but his influence lives on in every single indie record that’s made to this day. • It is also our first to break into 80s with the full-on Ace-style treatment: in-depth notes from James Nice, the acclaimed expert in the field, plus quantities of memorabilia.
