Episode 3 - The band Happy Mondays is formed and consumption of mushroom juice leads to the break they needed
Description
On this podcast which reached the Number One spot in the Music Podcast Charts in both the UK and Ireland, Happy Mondays founding member and bassist Paul Ryder opens up for the very first time to tell his incredible life story, which he finished recording just 12 days before he died in July 2022. Filled with laughter, fun guests and emotional moments, it's a glimpse into the life of an unlikely rock star who faced more than his fair share of personal demons. Joining him in this episode are ex-wife journalist Angela Smith, bandmates Gaz Whelan, Mark Day and the Mondays' original keyboard player Paul Davis, as well as his mum Linda and her best friend - the mum of Gaz Whelan, Sandra - and international superstar DJ and Producer, Paul Oakenfold.
