He is chiefly remembered for his bizarre style of dancing, and use of the maracas - the Mondays' second single was called "Freaky Dancin'" in tribute. He is considered to be an icon by many. He is reputed to have a high tolerance for hallucinogenic drugs. When asked by a music journalist why he took so many drugs he replied simply, "because it's my job". After the Mondays broke up, Bez became a member of Black Grape, a group founded by Mondays band-mate Shaun Ryder, but he left in 1996 over artistic differences. When both faced large tax bills, the two reconciled and reformed the Happy Mondays in 1998, but the reformed band was short-lived.

I don't consider him a legend - he was in the Happy Mondays who weren't bad in their time and then won Celeb Big Brother, is all. So I don't know why.

Because he made it possible for bad dancers to be seen as a 'mad for it' raver and all those people who really wanted to go to raves but didn't because they had no sense of rhythm the chance to be part of the biggest social movement in the latter days of the 20th century

Any dancer who becomes famous whilst being this sh!t at dancing has to be a legend and he is one of the very few celebs who doesn't take himself seriously.
