Some Friendly to Modern Nature: The Charlatans Albums in Order, Mapped
Every Charlatans studio album from Some Friendly (1990) to Different Days (2017) is mapped as a station on a tube network, with Tim Burgess, Rob Collins (and his absence after 1996), Mark Collins, Martin Blunt and Jon Brookes forming the core lines across the full discography.
From the Hammond organ-driven grooves of the early Madchester records through to the more expansive songwriting of their later work, my map reveals how the band's sound evolved across 25 years and who was in the room for each record, including the session musicians and collaborators who shaped each era.
Researched from liner notes, session archives and verified sources, and drawn using professional CAD software, this is a gallery-grade Giclée wall art print for Charlatans fans and collectors. Available framed and ready to hang, or as a print only, in A1 and A2 landscape, designed at mikebellmaps.com.
Note: a refreshed version of this map including the most recent studio release is in production. You can also browse the full Manchester Bands Art Prints Music Maps collection or all my music map gifts for music fans for related discography wall art prints.

Tube Map Print Accuracy & Updates
Every one of my prints is the result of my detailed research, cross-referencing, and design refinement. Each tube map is handcrafted to present the most accurate possible picture of an artist’s recording history, a film’s storyline, or a cultural timeline.
I take pride in the precision behind every connection, date, and credit featured across the collection.
Meticulous Research, Human Process
My research combines album liner notes, musicians' inputs, session archives, fan databases, interviews, and verified public sources to ensure each map is factually sound.
However, even the most carefully researched projects can contain minor errors or omissions, especially when dealing with complex discographies and multi-decade histories.
Community Feedback & Collaboration
I actively welcome feedback from fans, collectors, and artists who spot inconsistencies or have new information to share. Each correction helps refine future editions and strengthens the historical accuracy of the maps.
Contributors who provide verified updates receive discounts on future orders as a thank-you for their diligence and support.
Commitment to Quality
Accuracy isn’t just a promise, it’s part of the creative process. Every update and reprint reflects a commitment to truth, design integrity, and respect for the Music, Movie, and other stories represented.
I value the relationship with my customers and the collaboration that ensures these works continue to evolve and stay relevant.
I will always strive to combine artistic expression with documentary accuracy, celebrating creativity through precision and openness.
How to Care for Your Art Print
Thank you for choosing a Mike Bell Maps Giclee Print. To ensure your artwork remains as vibrant as the day it was printed for the next century, please follow these professional handling guidelines:
1. The "Clean Hands" Rule - Giclee prints are created with archival pigment inks that sit on the surface of the 230 gsm paper. Natural skin oils can transfer to the ink. We recommend washing and drying your hands thoroughly before handling or wearing white cotton "archival" gloves if available.
2. Avoid the "Roll-Back" - If your print arrived in a tube, let it flatten naturally. Lay it on a clean, flat surface and place a few heavy, smooth objects (like books) on the corners. Never roll the print tightly in the opposite direction, as this can "stress" the heavy paper fibres and cause creasing.
3. Framing is Protection - To ensure the 100+ year lightfastness guarantee, we recommend framing your print behind UV-protective glass or acrylic. Always use acid-free mounting materials (like the mounts provided in our framed options) to prevent "paper burn" or yellowing over time.
4. Location Matters - While our inks are gallery-standard, prolonged exposure to direct, harsh sunlight can eventually affect any pigment. For maximum longevity, hang your map in a location that avoids consistent direct afternoon sun and high-humidity environments (like bathrooms).
5. Dusting - If your print is unframed, never use water or cleaning sprays. A soft, dry microfiber cloth or a clean squirrel-hair brush is all that is needed to remove surface dust.
