Welcome To My Blog

Thanks for checking the blog out... Hope it offers something a bit different every now & again. Though I come from a pseudo - Mod background (Soul & Ska in particular), I have a diverse taste in music & hope my varied posts will reflect this.

Cheers Skamanc .... I'm not after your undying gratitude, but please leave your thoughts, comments & opinions on the posts & content. I regularly up- & download material, plus buy and trade items. As such, if I have inadvertently "trodden on anyone's toes" in posting anything then please let me know & accept my apologies. Also please support the artists involved & remember that the blog is merely a pointer toward these various downloads, which are stored elsewhere. Legally, any downloads should not be retained for more than a week. So now I've told you the legal bit !

Joy Division : Still

A posthumous collection of studio material and live tracks, Still is most notable for including the last gig Joy Division played, at Birmingham University, May 2nd 1980, just over a fortnight before Ian Curtis' suicide.(18/5/80) This gig also includes the work in progress "Ceremony", that was later to be reworked as New Order's debut single from the album "Movement". For me this release is also notable for the Velvet Underground cover "Sister Ray" (live @ the Moonlight Club), characterised by Peter Hook's unusually out of tune bass playing during the intro... !! MP3 format, with all tracks titled. No's 1-9 form the album proper, 10 is "Sister Ray" live & 11-20 are from Birmingham 2/5/80. http://rapidshare.com/files/361456616/Joy_Division_-_Still.rar
