https://ilovemanchester.com/not-so-happy-days-with-the-happy-mondays Actually, it seems the first article (and perhaps the one alluded to in this article) about the Mondays was by Dave Haslam. Dave also says he depended on a garrulous Phil Saxe, who compared the Mondays to the Velvet Underground. In light of these articles, one should perhaps note that Phil Saxe was replaced by Nathan McGough soon after this article was published.
