Happy Mondays is a rock/acid house fused group that emerged from the "madchester" scene in the late 1980s. Known for their legendary on and off-stage antics, lead singer Shaun Ryder and member Bez were notorious for their drink and drug-fueled behavior. Bez's unique dancing style became a highlight of their live gigs. One interesting story involves their recording session in Barbados, which resulted in the album "...Yes Please!" The band members attempted to sell studio equipment to sustain their binge due to the island's significant drugs problem at the time. After disbanding multiple times, they reunited with the original lineup in 2012.

Vinyl Singles

Happy Mondays release a special 7" in memory of their legendary bassist Paul Ryder, who tragically passed away earlier this month. The 'Tart Tart’ limited edition 7inch contains the original of the track, which originally appeared on Happy Mondays 1987 debut album Squirrel and G-Man Twenty Four Hour Party People Plastic Face Carnt Smile (White Out) and was produced by John Cale. On the B-Side is a live version of the track from a BBC John Peel session. Paul’s brother, Happy Monday’s vocalist Shaun Ryder comments: "This special release of Tart Tart showcases the unique musical talent of our brother Paul Ryder who passed from this world ... we will all miss you Horse...he brought the funk and the rock n roll to Happy Mondays … love you long time R kid”.
