Who is the best Manchester band of all time?
BBC 6Music's Music Week is running a Great Debate on who is the best Manchester band of all time. As they say, "it's the city that gave us The Buzzcocks, Joy Division, New Order, The Fall, The Smiths, The Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and Oasis – all bands guaranteed a place in any sane person’s list of the greatest bands of all time from anywhere. Just below them lurk the likes of Magazine, James, Electronic, Inspiral Carpets, Badly Drawn Boy and Doves, while extending the search parameters slightly would mean mentions for likes of The Verve and Elbow."
Of course, everyone has their own favourites and so you can nominate and vote for your favourite band and the results will be announced in due course.
