I’m in the middle of reading make that skimming Clinton Heylin’s new Babylon’s Burning —something in his authorial tone I find off-putting, even a bit smarmily jokey. (If you’re going to read him, start with the far-superior From the Velvets to the Voidoids.) But I did come across this wonderful club flyer reproduced within its pages. Man, I’d give my eye teeth to have gone to any one of these shows. *sigh*
Joy Division, “Heart and Soul”

Hey thanks for the T.G. track. I have a bunch of 45’s of theirs that i haven’t listened to in a while. Is Hot On The Heels of Love one of the two that came with a camoflage picture sleeve?

Heylin’s books on Dylan (and they’re many of them) can be a chore to read in places exactly because of his strident streak of self-righteousness.

Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire, and Rema Rema? One one bill?
Christ. That’s sick.

It’s sick and twisted and sweet zombie jesus I wish I’d been there.
