I lived in Manchester from '82 - '86, and was for a time a friend of Pat McGinty, purveyor of exotic chemicals. As did many of the drug cognisgenti, he lived on the Crescents in Hulme - Rober Adam Crescent, from memory. And I do recall the slightly tense time following his dispensing of some less than puissant powder - much laying low and living in other people's flats; and the relative jubilation when later the incident was celebrated as a Fall b-side. So far what its worth, I think I can lay any thought of JBC/Fall needle in the lyrics of Pat Trip Dispenser.
