Tony Wilson, founder of Factory Records, died today at the age of 57. Wilson, of course, was very instrumental in the development of a lot of great music. This article from the BBC touches on his musical legacy--probably all of the things he'd like to be remembered for.

Some interesting history on the New Order - Blue Monday single.

This man was instrumental in shaping the soundtrack to my life, it's heartbreaking to see him go at such a young age.
