sorry, my mistake, I knew it was Joy Division (trying to type this and work at the same time…) - I had the Throbbing Gristle one.

PJ Harvey - Let England Shake. I’ve not listened to this much as I found it harder going than her earlier work, but listening to it now I’m quite enjoying it.

New Order, Technique, original Factory Records vinyl pressing from January 1989.
Whenever i get fed up with New Order, with Bernard’s dreadful singing and dad-dancing, with their crappy latterday albums, the silly spats with Hooky, their descent into heritage act hell, I put Technique on and I remember why they were the best band in the world in the 1980s, why I saw them 74 times during that decade. Because it’s a brilliant album, their best in fact. Just great, great tunes, superb playing, faultless all round.
Unbelievably well recorded too – the bass is just incredible on this. The music is so powerful, if it’s as if the mighty Zep swapped their kit for electronics.

I’ve been working on booking the Unthanks for a concert next summer and it’s a bit tricky sorting everything out. So I’m consoling myself by listening to one of their albums, in the hope that it will all be worth it.

The Beatles - Let it Be …naked
Love the sparer take on this album. CD.
One of those albums that has me going, admittedly not too insightfully, ‘yeah they were utterly brilliant’.
