  • 2 to Be Somebody: Ambition and the Desire to Be Different
    2 To Be Somebody: Ambition and the Desire to Be Different The context for difference This chapter aims to identify some of the bands that enjoyed chart success during the late 1970s and ’80s and identify their artistic traits by means of conversations with band members and those close to the bands. This chapter does not claim to be a definitive account or an inclusive list of innovative bands but merely a viewpoint from some of the individuals who were present at the time and involved in music, creativity and youth culture. Some of these individuals were in the eye of the storm while others were more on the periphery. However, common themes emerge and testify to the Scouse resilience identified in the previous chapter. Also, identifying objective truth is a difficult task, as one band member will often have a view of his band’s history that conflicts with that of other members of the same band. As such, it is acknowledged that this chapter presents only selective viewpoints. Trying something new: In what ways were the Liverpool bands creative and different? ‘Liverpool has always made me brave, choice-wise. It was never a city that criticized anyone for taking a chance.’ David Morrissey1 In terms of creativity, the theory underpinning this book which was stated in Chapter 1 is that successful Liverpool bands in the 1980s were different from each other and did not attempt to follow the latest local or national pop music trends. None of the bands interviewed falls into the categories of punk, disco or New Romantic, which were popular trends at the time.

  • Mike Badger & Tim Peacock
    LIVERPOOL Liverpool in the 1980s. With prospects for the city’s youth bleak, an ill-fated scheme for unemployed musicians commenced, inadvertently shaping the MIKE BADGER & TIM PEACOCK future for members of Space, Cast and The Lightning Seeds, thus giving fresh impetus to the idea of song as a saviour for the city. Spearheading this was The La’s, first they conquered their home town, and then on the brink of hitting the big time (and eventually inspiring what would become Britpop) Badger quit to form Americana pioneers The Onset and find international recognition as a sculptor, before eventually co-founding Liverpool’s Viper record label (which has recently released its 100th album). As well as featuring a host of Mersey Musicians and characters there are chance meetings with Captain Beefheart, Jonathan Richman and Frank Sidebottom to name a few but above all new insights are revealed into the great lost Liverpool band The La’s. From the emergence of Punk and New-Wave in the 1970’s and on through to the acknowledgment of Liverpool as Cultural Capital some thirty years on. The Rhythm and the Tide is Mike Badger’s personal story as a restlessly creative individual, and a reflection on the ebb and flow of the music scene in the city that he loves. “Had the La’s been able “Badger makes sculpture from to accommodate Badger a hybrid collection of exotic tins and Mavers, could world and cheese graters, convincing domination have been as a collection of survivalist far away?” junkyard fetishism” AND EVER AFTER LIVERPOOL, THE LA’S MOJO Magazine The Guardian “We kind of want to finish “The Onset: The most what The La’s started.” arresting group in captivity” Noel Gallagher Pete Frame (oasis) (Rock Family Trees) Mike Badger is a singer, songwriter, artist and co-founder of Liverpool’s Viper record label.
