Never!! He should have gone on BBC2's "Something Else" with his H-eyes and sang "She's Lost Control" 3 days before he died then! A cult hero forever.

Haway Katcha, Ian Curtis...one-song wonder?

it wrent being drug involved that killed him either really there were a lot more going on than that

one song wonder

never man

for such a short period of time they established some catalogue and in all frankness i aint to keen on that track - nothing betters the opening lead on dead souls and the opening bass on transmission.

over hyped post death yes
good because he died - fookin no way am i having that

I'm in this camp
Division yay
Order nay

Drugs dont come into it for me.
The music and only the music

Edit: just listened to those YouTube clips Katcha, good man. Gonna put Joy Division in my car for the next week or so. Would play tomorrow but have Luke Haines is Dead compilation and am very excited about that.

A must for all Joy Division afficianados (?) - Heart and Soul 4 CD box set - virtually everything they ever did. Contains the most stunning version of Atmosphere bizarrely called Chance - makes me shiver every time I hear it. New Order? Time and a place but got increasing sh1t as they went on.

Thought 24hour party people was a good watch - probably not a great reflection of what actually happened but a funny film in parts.

Joy Division are class, end of :wink:

gonna swap Spike Milligan for Jan Molby in my list, totally forgot about him! :shock:
