The Durutti Column Bio
"The Durutti Column" is the ongoing band project of gifted Manchester guitarist Vini Reilly (born August ?, 1953), usually accompanied by the talents of drummer Bruce Mitchell. Forever to be associated with Factory Records and its mercurial boss, Tony Wilson (also their manager for many years), their style encompasses elements of jazz, folk, classical music and rock, always underpinned by the distinctive sound of Vini's guitar playing.
Vini Reilly also contributed his distinctive guitar style on the first Morrissey solo album, ''Viva Hate''.
The name The Durutti Column column is both a reference to an anarchist militia, led by Buenaventura Durruti, involved in the Spanish Civil War, as well as the French organization Situationist International, who were known for including the phrase "The Return of the Durutti [notice the change in spelling] Column" on their manifestoes.
