Making a Noise in the Nineties

By the end of the 90s record companies had pensioned off the 7 inch, cassette and CD single. In the short run it meant CD album sales soared, but in the long run it was a recipe for disaster. In 1999 Canadian record producer Terry McManus wrote “It’s when the music industry made its greatest mistake. It stopped making vinyl singles and offered nothing to replace them. It stopped a whole generation from picking up the record-buying habit.”

However, the decade that brought us Britpop and Britney also created some amazing music.

Here’s some of the tracks that didn’t appear on MTV.

Published by Roy Stannard

I'm someone who doesn't like parameters, barriers or fences. I'll try and climb over them, burrow under them or just pretend they don't exist - until they don't. Sometimes I'll write about the mind in a poetic way, or poetry with neural undertones, or I'll proselytise endlessly about my favourite new band - or one of the old ones. My Blog will give you the keys to the kingdom. A kingdom with no borders, no expectations and, therefore, no failure.. Because I am endlessly empathetic with people, their motivation, their behaviour,their problems and their quest for knowledge, I work with the pioneering Brighton-based homeless, vulnerable women and disempowered school students charity Off The Fence Trust that has tried to redress the equality deficit for over two decades. I produce, host and promote two radio shows a week: The Whole Nine Yards Sundays 3-5pm on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM (www.midsussexradio.co.uk/listen) - and Lost Immortals on Mid Sussex Radio 103.8FM on Sundays 5-7pm.
