You have been warned. Still, since this is very likely the very first Joy Division long-player, it has considerable historical interest, and as it stands, is a document of their nascent Unknown Pleasures material, if it were not for the distortion, likely due to the mic being overloaded, the recording is fairly clear between songs, actually. As if that were not bad enough, this gig was copied by having the playback of one cassette recorder being recorded by another one. However, there are "in-line" copies in existence and it is strongly suspected that this is one of them. Some testimonials: snotters: "For anyone else's benefit, I've heard Sam's copy and it's definitely an improvement on the more common version. But it's still only worth about 4/10 (as opposed to 1/10). Probably on a par with something like Leeds Roots Club, Newcastle City Hall and the inferior version of Blackpool 79" TJ: "We ain't gonna get a better copy of BOTW than Sam's I suspect, it's better than Dave Simpson's old copy was that I've had for 20 years. Pity, because it was a half decent gig, and I love these work in progress versions of songs, not that we got many from JD." See http://www.new-order.net/jd/gigs/jdgigs.htm#JD-790600 for notes about the performance and Ian's between-song quips. See http://www.websitetoolbox.com/tool/post/lwtua/vpost?id=488 (where the quotes above were drawn from) for a very interesting and involved discussion trying to pin down the exact date of this performance. It's my own belief now that this is from the 13 Mar 1979 Band On The Wall gig, as documented on the reproduction of the flier presented here: http://iancurtis.org/gigs/13-03-1979.html as it makes sense that any showcase of their new Unknown Pleasures material would first be presented in a venue at their hometown that they've performed at many times before, but this by no means is conclusive, read the thread for the details! What is agreed-upon is that the 03 Jul 1979 date that has been commonly given out is simply incorrect. I have not attempted to clean up the recording in any fashion, no NR, no re-EQ'ing, etc. For anybody who has downloaded this for me before, this has been retracked (split between Day Of The Lords and Insight) as well as a couple of corrections on inaccurate markers.
