Various: Manchester (A City United In Music) version on 2CD in Standard edition. This particular edition was published in United Kingdom in publishing company Ace on 8. February 2019.

- Starting with Ewan MacColl's "Dirty Old Town", a song written about a great metropolis and capturing the effects of 200 years of the Industrial Revolution and its aftermath, "Manchester; A City United In Music" goes through the beat revolution of the 60s. The songs range from the multi-million selling hits of Wayne Fontana, 10cc, Herman's Hermits and Simply Red to the iconic musicianship of Haydock's Rockhouse, Wynder K Frog and Smack. Well-known artists such as The Hollies, Georgie Fame and John Mayall feature on some lesser-known but cutting-edge tracks - Manchester's soul roots can be heard in Elkie Brooks, Sweet Sensation, M People and Blue Zone, while earlier attempts at R&B were made by beat groups The Measles, Pete MacLaine & the Clan and Whirlwinds. Twelve years later, the Buzzcocks, Slaughter & the Dogs and Salford Jets joined the raucous "in your face" musical rebellion. This surge of pent-up energy was then followed by the moodier, angsty sounds of Joy Division, Magazine and The Fall and their younger followers Stone Roses, Happy Mondays and Inspiral Carpets - This 2CD set and accompanying booklet, arranged largely chronologically, tell the fascinating story of the city's musical history and explore how they came to be. Photographs - many by well-known Manchester scene photographer Kevin Cummins - and artwork from the period, along with memories of the players, bring it to life again - A striking digipak is adorned with photographs of Chris Sievey lurking outside the Virgin Megastore on Market Street, and the package is accompanied by a 44-page booklet and extensive notes by compiler CP Lee with an overview by Jon Savage.

Album spans genres Rock, Pop, Folk, World, & Country, Funk / Soul, New Wave, Post-Punk, Alternative rock, Punk, Indie Rock, Progressive rock, Pop Rock, Folk, Art Rock, Psychedelic rock, Indie Pop, Classic Rock, Pop Punk, Mod and Parody. 2CD.
