Historical list of superstars and a famous pop music stars in Manchester, giving some indication of the important role played by the city's musical heritage, especially since become a source of great pride in the local Mancunians between world music scene is.

Sixties and seventies, Manchesutahorizu, Bee Gees and 10cc boasted several popular bands like this. In addition, BBC, the city's most popular TV show "Top of the Pops" Recordwas another reason to be proud of the local music scene. Several original members of The Hollies, founded in the early sixties, were raised in Manchester and nearby communities. Often called the British Everly Brothers, The Hollies' rich harmonies rivalled those of the Beach Boys. Of course, the trio known as the Bee Gees is one of the most successful musical acts of all time, with total sales of over 180 million albums. By now, everyone knows that the Bee Gees were the Brothers Gibb: Barry, Maurice and Robin. 10cc and, before you broke up in 1976 reached its height of commercial success in the 1970s.

Historically, however, a great moment in the history of music, the Sex Pistols arrived on June 4, 1976 Castlefield to play a concert at the legendary Ressafuritoredohoru came over from Manchester . The audience of this concert is less than 42 people were instrumental in forming the Manchester music scene was coming, some people werepresent. These included Tony Wilson (founder of Factory Records), Bernard Sumner (of Joy Division and New Order), Mick Hucknall (Simply Red), Ian Curtis, Peter Hook and producer Martin Hannett (who would later from The Smiths with Johnny Marr). Shortly following the gig, Wilson founded Factory Records and promptly signed Joy Division.

Factory Records soon made a splash with signature Manchester musicians who played their own distinct sound. The record label created its own unique image as well, combining images of the industrial north with Andy Warhol-inspired pop art glamour. This formed a rather incongruous image that nonetheless caught on.

With bands like A Certain Ratio and The Durutti Column at the forefront, Factory Records became identified with a certain sound. However, the coup de grace was fashioned by Joy Division, which critics said successfully captured and "grimly defined" what it meant to be a Mancunian at the close of the seventies.

Shortly thereafter, "dating Manchester 'to hit the ground running as the last group of musical acts.The Smiths, led by Morrissey and Marr, created such iconic Manchester songs as "Rusholme Ruffians" and "Suffer Little Children." Music critics noted that Morrisey's lyrics were as explicitly about Manchester as the works of another great artist, the painter L.S. Lowry.

A point of clarification here, though. The famous American anti-war hippie musical from the late sixties, Hair, includes a song entitled "Manchester, England." However, the mention of the city in the song's title is somewhat irrelevant and serves mainly as punctuation in the song's lyrics.

With the dawn of the nineties, the Manchester music scene again metamorphosed, some say the new energy was propelled by the drug ecstasy. The Hacienda night club, which was owned by Factory Records, became the new music hub and created the so-called "Madchester Scene," fuelled by the music of Happy Mondays, The Inspiral Carpets and The Stone Roses. The 2002 movie "24 Hour Party People" by Michael Winterbottom aptly captured this period in Manchester's music history.

After Madchester, much of the music scene's energy died down but lots of local music groups still made their presence felt, such as Oasis, James, Take That, M People, 808 State, Elbow, Doves, Mr. Scruff, Drawn Boy and Michael McGoldrick. Of this group, Oasis emerged as the most popular act, with their Don't Believe The Truth tour playing to over 1.7 million people around the world in 2005 and early 2006. It should be noted that The Fall Continues to receive rave reviews.
