    This music is so powerful that I still shudder at its essence 30 years after the first listen. Few groups have ever combined so succinctly and impulsively. This is music for ritual and ceremony. It's about culture not commerce.

    • @DaveAnchovies
      @DaveAnchovies 4 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I think the bands really gave it everything for Peel. I was under the impression these were band recordings without a producer (an engineer, yes). Recorded by the band without much tinkering with.
      He had a great ear for what are now classics. He brought many bands who were being ignored by a music press bought and paid for by the music industry, out into the open. Highly respected by bands and fans alike.
      Often the peel session version were more of the bands playing without a producer (not always) giving a song a different vibe.
      Again, thanks for uploading. Great punker versions. Which JD was...a punk band. Period.

      @Westerdd 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@DaveAnchovies As you said, no or very little influence from a producer is pretty much why peel sessions often (but not always) yielded a better recording than the Album versions of songs. The Peel sessions were basically the band playing live and fed into the desk without overdubs or tinkering afterwards. I don't think bands were particularly outputting any different because it was for Peel, it was just the band playing live.

    • @peterfitton4529
      @peterfitton4529 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@Westerdd Not sure that was always the case. Bands usually had several hours to record 3 or 4 tracks for a Peel session and while some bands may have just played live others certainly built up and layered the tracks and used overdubs etc. All sessions employed producers too. Dale Griffin (ex of Mott The Hoople if memory serves) was one of those regularly used, for example. Many people seem to think that Peel sessions were broadcast live on his show, but that was not the case, of course.

    Ian Curtis and Eric Burdon both have (or had) in common that they were rather of smaller build (nothing wrong with that), yet they somehow managed to have these gigantic, deep, massive-sounding voices. And as it happens, they're two of my fave rock vocalists (I have wide tastes), but not because of that, lol. Because they're both great subjectively.

      @@darrelldoran509 Suicide. Not epilepsy. Though he did suffer fits. I don’t know whether he suffered anxiety or depression (or bipolar). It’s not usually depression but mania & anxiety that immediately precedes suicidal thoughts. I believe poor Ian hanged himself at home & was found dead by his young wife. The film “Closer” was made as a memorial to his brief life, I hope with her approval. It is a very moving document. No stardom for Ian or the band. The went on to further heights as New Order. Joy Division is seen as just Ian Curtis, and he’s an inextricable part of it, but listen to the guitars, the drums, it’s so intense and I think the simplicity & driving energy, combined with dark feelings from the band made it what it was.

    For my money as a guitarist of 40+ years, this version of Colony has the greatest fuzz guitar sound ever recorded by anyone. It's a cliche to say that the less produced version of a song is the better one, and in general I will defend Martin Hannett until the cows come home, but in this case it clearly destroys the one on "Closer" although that album has its high points.
