We spent last episode Shoegazing and this week we’re tripping in our bucket hats all the way to Madchester to talk about The Charlatans 1990 debut.   Known in the States for the bands lone radio hit,  “The Only One I Know,” the band was a smash in their native England where a full blown scene of drug taking, baggy clothes wearing, dancing to the break of dawn Brits was sweeping the nation.  The Charlatans, along with with The Stone Roses, Inspiral Carpets, The Happy Mondays & 808 State were the soundtrack.  But how does this stuff hold up today?  Pretty damn well actually.       Recommended Listening    Inspiral Carpets  https://open.spotify.com/artist/66GWpx9iLxrvvfhDsG9STP?si=MLlUJKyVQpmXOv2qWpi49w   808 State “Cubik" https://open.spotify.com/track/5BxETnZ8Dzm86jcuFAozOa?si=6fb3e5628aa1484c   Happy Monday Bummed  https://open.spotify.com/album/6e6DI3muL90IC1LESBo7wK?si=WmKkVMnSTpGcx7P5YANJOw   Ned’s Atomic Dustbin God fodder https://open.spotify.com/album/3jkqrE3ycfEY8088IZXcZZ?si=hOvoDFPYQHiotJMt8Q
