Pride
Of Manchester Award for Best Musical Album 2009-10 |
| Following
2008's amazing year for Manchester artists, 2009
was a relatively quiet year with Doves
'Kingdom of Rust' being the most successful on
the charts (no.2). Morrissey's 'Years Of
Refusal' reached no.3 whilst David Gray's
amazing 'Draw The Line', perhaps his best album
yet, reached no.5. Ian Brown also returned
to form with 'My Way' (no.8). Elbow, with
the BBC Concert Orchestra, released their live
at Abbey Road version of last year's Pride Of
Manchester Award winning 'Seldom Seen Kid' and
Take That charted with 'The Circus Live
(no.3), recorded at Wembley Stadium as part of
their record-breaking tour. New Order's Bernard
Sumner returned with new band Bad Lieutenant
whilst The Smiths Johnny Marr had success
with his new Wakefield-based band, The Cribs,
reaching no.8 with 'Ignore The Ignorant'. Nine
Black Alps returned without chart success
and, despite much media hype and critical acclaim,
Kid British could only reach no.67 with
'It Was Either This Or Football'. Starsailor's
'All The Plans' also disappointed at no.26 and
the band announced a break. |
