Information on Manchester bands

Subject: Information on Manchester bands

I haven't posted to this group in the past, but I've been reading it
and it occured to me that some kind soul out there may be willing
(able?)  to contribute to a project of mine.  I am planning on doing a
special on music from Manchester on KFJC, a Bay Area, CA college radio
station.  What I'm looking for is any information, stories, obscure
bands, band geneology, etc.  Bands that I have so far are, the
obvious: New Order, Smiths, etc, some more obscure such as Crispy
Ambulance, James...  I plan on contacting Factory records as well.
What other labels are there in Manchester?

In case you're wondering, `why Manchester'?  Well, I spent 6 years in
that rainy city and I'm feeling nostalgic, so there.

Anyway, I'd be grateful for any information.  

Thanks
