Description:
A Certain Ratio was one of the first groups to sign to the legendary Factory Records in Manchester. Whilst many people credit New Order and The Happy Mondays as the groups who brought Dance music into the sound of Manchester, it is in fact A Certain Ratio who were there in the beginning.
This CD covers this period of their career (from 1978-1985). At this point A Certain Ratio entered the next phase of their career, signing to a major (A&M) to try and find some of the mainstream success that many of their imitators would achieve. But A Certain Ratio were always too unique and musically ahead of their time to fit into the mainstream and it was not to be. A Certain Ratio would leave A&M two years later.
