Mark Radcliffe at the Science and Industry Museum, Manchester

Broadcaster and musician Mark Radcliffe takes his friend and bandmate Paul Langley to the Science and Industry Museum in Manchester, where they explore how the ‘rainy city’ has been a place of ideas and invention through time. As they take a deep dive into an exhibition about one of Manchester’s most famous outputs, Factory Records, they discuss how the iconic record label is intertwined with the city’s industrial heritage and a long history of creative thinkers, scientists and innovators. Notes:  The exhibition Use Hearing Protection: The Early Years of Factory Records is at the Science and Industry Museum, Manchester, until 3 January 2022.  This recording features two tracks by Mark and Paul’s band UNE, Folie and Waldeinsamkeit.
