Joy Division - Lost Treasures (Recorded 1977-1980 Studio Record+Outtakes)
This one has been sitting dormant for a little while on the hard drive because not too many folks downloaded the last Joy Division post before it got killed. Maybe many had been turned of by the gloomy image and reputation of the band but I never really saw it that way. What ruined Joy Division for me when they were still around and even early New Order for me were their fans. They were among the most gloomy, spoiled little punks I had ever had the misfortune of having to sit through 6th grade with. Also, at the time I was really trying rap like I was Grandmaster Melle Mel and the great music coming from Britain was still a few years away from penetrating my brain. I am pretty slow to come around but eventually I do, and today still find myself listening to both with equal ardor and hope all of you good folks will as well.

Welcome in http://aacrj.multiply.com/
I found your blog by chance yesterday evening. I'm downloading the Joy Division as I type. I downloaded the Bowie earlier and The Doors last night. You've zoomed to the top of my music blog bookmarks!
Many thanks from someone else who is also old and boring ...
I've had to come back and say thank you again for this Joy Division bootleg. I thought I had everything worth having by them but I was wrong. The second two sessions are the best but it's all excellent.
A second league JD song like Something Must Break sounds absolutely manic in the version here. Other stand-outs are These Days, Atrocity Exhibition and Chance (Atmosphere). Also great to hear them tightening and speeding up the first single proper, Transmission. I remember when the single first came out and was played in my local independent record store (NE England) and the reaction to it was almost physical. The track ended and the stylus was placed back at the beginning of the grooves so we could all hear it again.
Really, many, many thanks.
Your blog is on my favorites and this is one of my favorite bands. thanks
I've always felt the same way about JD and their "fans", same for many of the early gothic bands, great music, off-putting "scene". There is so much more to the music than the surficial "gloom and doom" of the lyrics.
Thanks for the post and congrats on a great site.
Cheers, SamIam
