Publisher Description: Jay Wearden was and is a pioneering, successful underground DJ who is a born & bred native of Manchester, a northern UK city and once bastion of Acid House/Dance music culture His journey began on the tough streets of East Manchester, where street cred and being street wise where an essential factor of day to day life until that is, when he embraced what would become a massive global music revolution unmatched then or since Manchester is very well known for its most talked about (press wise) club brand 'The Hacienda', which leads many to think that it was all the city offered as regards venues and clubs, which really isn't the case. Jay cut his teeth in the other tougher clubs of this infamous city, namely 'The Thunderdome' and the Hippodrome (Hippos).This a fantastic insight into the rise and influence a working-class man had on the embryonic dance music scene after turning his back on gang warfare, to help establish Manchester as one of the most respected Acid house/Dance music cities in the world.
