Okay, I'm now listening to this from the start. It's scary good. Emphasizing Joy Division's punk edge, certainly.

I'm listening to the Death Disco compilation that Marky Dread recommended a few weeks ago. Really good.

That looks interesting, and looking about on the net quite expensive if you come across a copy, triple CD!, gets great reviews too, I was lucky enough to see Joy Division support The Stranglers at The Rainbow Theatre, Finsbury park in 1980, they were pretty good, unfortunately Ian Curtis had a seizure close to the end of their set and fell into the drums, it was a weird gig as The Stranglers were without Hugh Cornwall who was in Pentonville prison as he'd been busted for Drugs, the band didn't want to cancel the two gig they had there so they got a lot of their music associates to sing instead of Hugh, Ian Dury, Hazel O'Conner, Billy Idol, Phil Daniels, Robert Smith on guitar for some, Jake Burns, Toyah Wilcox & Nicky Tesco from The Members.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑11 Oct 2018, 1:17pm

Joy Division were great, Ian Curtis doing his signature dance, he apparently recovered enough to do a gig at Hampstead Moonlight Club later that evening, what a legacy.

I'm sure you'll agree it was a weird night and special too, a great collective effort, you never forget those one's, you must have been just out of secondary, but as previously stated you started gigging early

I saw quite a few bands in that time period. I had not finished school yet at this point. I finished in August '80 and started work in September. The concert was held over two nights the 3rd & 4th April Thursday/Friday. I was at the Thursday night gig I know this because the 3rd is my mum's birthday and she was throwing a party and I had other plans.hairydot61 wrote: ↑13 Oct 2018, 3:48pmMarky Dread wrote: ↑13 Oct 2018, 1:05pmHa I was at that gig also.hairydot61 wrote: ↑13 Oct 2018, 12:55pmThat looks interesting, and looking about on the net quite expensive if you come across a copy, triple CD!, gets great reviews too, I was lucky enough to see Joy Division support The Stranglers at The Rainbow Theatre, Finsbury park in 1980, they were pretty good, unfortunately Ian Curtis had a seizure close to the end of their set and fell into the drums, it was a weird gig as The Stranglers were without Hugh Cornwall who was in Pentonville prison as he'd been busted for Drugs, the band didn't want to cancel the two gig they had there so they got a lot of their music associates to sing instead of Hugh, Ian Dury, Hazel O'Conner, Billy Idol, Phil Daniels, Robert Smith on guitar for some, Jake Burns, Toyah Wilcox & Nicky Tesco from The Members.Dr. Medulla wrote: ↑11 Oct 2018, 1:17pm

I have the CD of this gig which is a nice keep-sake. If you get it make sure it's the version with Richard Jobson on the front as a later edition omits 3 tracks and fucks around with the track seqeunce.
