Lockdown Listen: Joy Division: Transmitted

[LMG]

I think 'Dead Souls' is in my top three JD songs. Top 2 even?

But can you imagine they had 'Dead Souls' when they recorded the album, but decided to close the album with this instead?

A brave, and wise choice. 'Dead Souls' is better as a stand-alone track, and would have actually made for a different ambience to the album - more triumphant.

I might do my own version of this album with the 12" version of 'She's Lost Control', and 'Dead Souls' replacing 'I Remember Nothing'.

Just to see, like.

I was never a punk (obviously!) and I too shunned punk music but one or two bands shone through for me.

Magazine for one and the great JD the other






.

I wouldn't class either of them as punk, far too much music!!

They are the start of post-punk. With Public Image and The Fall.

Aww, crap, I was going to do this one but got pissed off with lockdown pt2 and wandered around outside for a while.

Guess I'll have to wait for the next album I actually own, in 2087.

Thanks, kath, I forget I am Yaphet Kotto sometimes. A belated happy birthday to your daughter, too, my life is undoubtedly poorer for never having known her.
