This is an excellent soundboard recording and the
most bootlegged Joy Division concert ever! Not all
the bootlegs featuring this recording have been
mastered from a low generation master so sound
quality varies.
* "Passover" is incomplete on all known recordings
of this concert
** "Shadowplay" has a brief internal glitch
The local support didn't want to play so Joy
Division stood in for them. They played two
completely different sets for the price of one.
Here's how it was described in a fanzine at the
time:
"When I arrived at the Paradiso, it appeared
that most of the regular visitors had decided to
stay at home. So the JOY DIVISION played for a
handful of people only, two long sets, together
around 70 minutes of excellent music.
At that time only 1 album and 2 singles had
been released, so they played a lot of new songs
that went down well with the small audience.
The gig was (along with the PIL-gig in
Bruxelles) the best I have ever seen. Phantastic
bass playing by PETER HOOK and a spastic,
strainied IAN CURTIS. For the occasion the
Paradiso management had lowered the ceiling to
make things more intimate. It was a good idea.
Shame to all the people who stayed at home".
