Happy anniversary to New Order’s single, “The Perfect Kiss”. Released this week in 1985. #neworder #lowlife #theperfectkiss #petersaville #factoryrecords
Because I was buying records in London in the late 80s I ended up with some oddities. My copy of Unknown Pleasures, that I bought from Our Price on Victoria Street, Westminster was an unusual Italian import, not FCL. I also have the Everything's Gone Green EP as a polygram Canadian imprint. #FactoryRecords

Joy Division, Substance, 1988 on Factory

Posthumous collection of Joy Division singles put out in 1988 as a 1xLP and reissued in 2015 as a 2xLP by Rhino (a digital remaster). Substance was also used at the title for the New Order singles collection that came out in 1987 (with “1987” added).

Still looking for a good clean copy of Unknown Pleasures but I was glad to find this copy of Substance. The 2xLP version includes the “Pennine Version” of “Love Will Tear Us Apart” which was the b-side of the original single.

My copy—via a record fair at Mill No. 5—is the 2015 Rhino US edition pressed at Optimal GmbH on 180g vinyl.

Dziś rocznica urodzin Petera Saville'a (ur. 9 października 1955), jednego z najważniejszych brytyjskich grafików. Jego prace, zwłaszcza dla Factory Records, zrewolucjonizowały wizualny język muzyki. Okładki płyt Joy Division czy New Order to dziś klasyki. (fot. Wikipedia) #PeterSaville #Design #FactoryRecords #JoyDivision
