Erratic tape speed makes this is the worst sounding
Joy Division live recording ever.
Mark Reeder who promoted this gig remembers they
played She's Lost Control, Shadowplay
and New Dawn Fades (and
possibly others as well) in addition to those songs
captured on the tape. "When I was told JD would be
playing in Cologne, I managed to convince Rob
(through Ian) to come to Berlin ('it's not that
far'). I had a harder job trying to convince Conny
(who ran the gigs at the Kant Kino) to put them on,
and it was only after their album got a positive
review in the UK music press that he capitulated,
after I told him JD would already be in Germany and
he'd only have to pay their fee and hotel costs - so
the Kant Kino was incorporated into their short
Holland tour". "There were about 60 people at that
gig (we sold 58 tickets)".
