  2. Here we have three great bands playing live, and yet only New Order is offered. Why are their support bands never included in these bootlegs??!! Same for Joy Division, who played live with some classic bands(A Certain Ratio, for instance). Glad to hear early New Order, yes, but I'd love to have heard Tunnel Vision and SXXV as well. Makes you wonder... Will

    1. Actually I did record Section 25 at the same time, but most of my tapes were thrown out years ago. Sorry.

  3. Bit aggressive isn't it? Support bands aren't always recorded or the tapes can be lost - there must be a million reasons - not least the fact that the blog is mainly about JD and offshoots.

    Thanks as always for the music.

  8. There is only one recording known to circulate...these versions (the MP3 and FLAC versions are different digitizations) match up to what's known to be out there, but are different than the two that appeared on the torrent sites.
