For 2005

New! Live Traffic Festival Torino (Turin) Italy, performed on 2 July.


For 2003

JOY DIVISION Interviews More interviews, this time from the Joy Division era. All of these are 32kbps 11khz MP3 files, except when indicated.

And a rare bonus interview from Hooky, recording around the time of their first Peel Session.
Very interesting to hear how aloof and withdrawn he presents himself, in stark contrast to later interviews.

Check out my ever-growing collection of Barney quips and Hook humdingers.


For 2001

PETER HOOK BLOWOUT! Just added a significant collection of Hooky interviews from the Technique/Republic era. Hooky's appearance on the sex-talk callin program "Lovelines" must not be missed! All of these are 32kbps 22khz MP3 files.

85 DEC 10 Snippet of Bernard Sumner who I thought was speaking French at the El Dorado, Paris France gig. Looks like he's complaining about his road crew not let into the country because UK Customs didn't let them in. In English.

83 JUL 20 11 minute version of Thieves Like Us. Performed at the Hacienda in Manchester. Thanks to Nicholas LeBlanc for IDing this one! (It's a 13Mb 160 kbit MP3, so it'll take a while to download)

83 MAY 09 The first performance of LWTUA by New Order, debuted at Tower Ballroom in Birmingham on the anniversary of Ian's death--may he forever rest in peace!

84 AUG 25

I originally had this labelled "85 sounndcheck". Turns out that this wasn't a soundcheck but a live session broadcast Saturday, 25 August 1984.
The broadcast was a joint venture between Radio 1 & BBC2 called "sight and sound" There was two other tracks, In A Lonely Place and Temptation, (Barney introduces In A Lonely Place as "an atmostpheric song in an unatmospheric place")
