  1. NEW ORDER - Paradiso, Amsterdam 17th May 1984

    Another old tape dug from the 1990 vaults. A clear audience recording which includes Decades! This is an upgrade and retransfer from a previous seed.

  2. I was at this gig .It was fantastic and the Venue is sublime, stained glass window and everything.My own recording is out there somewhere but this one is much much better, enjoy. Leeds Tiffanys Jan 1985 is one to look out for, the best NO gig ever!!!

  3. Hi
    Here new New Order's compilation called "Total", with an unpublished track, name 'Hellbent'; 'It will be a 18-track compilation covering the most important songs of both, which goes from 1976 to 2005; the album's been mastered by Frank Arkwright, and the cover's design has been made by Factory Records' graphic designer and ex-director Peter Saville.'

  5. Although this version of the Amsterdam concert is lossless, the earlier lossy version (from a source a bit closer to the stage) sounds a lot better and a little less like an audience recording. It would be fantastic if someone has that recording in lossless quality.

    I was there that day at the Paradiso. Accidentally I had my photocamera with me and took a bunch of (not very good) pictures during the soundcheck and the gig. What I clearly remember is that they rehearsed Confusion several times during the soundcheck. The other things I remember very clearly is that the gig was loud as hell (my ears where ringing for two days) and that I nicked the Paradiso concert poster from a pub nearby on the Leidseplein that same night.

  7. Hi all, great quality for a mid 80's audience recording, I got a tape of this in 85 in Dublin and tacked onto the end was a live Dutch radio session with Blue Monday and a great version of Confusion, anyone know if the Dutch radio stuff is around?
