Genesis Supper's Ready
New Order - 1963
The video is utterly bonkers, too, featuring the fabulous Jane Horrocks.
Totally agree. Think I first heard '1963' when it was on the 'Substance' compilation (and the B side to True Faith).The original version was one of the greatest B-sides ever by New Order and fully deserved its A-side status when eventually re-released in 1994.
Sunrise (Low Life 1985) and Vanishing Point (Technique 1989) qualify very much in that category!!Totally agree. Think I first heard '1963' when it was on the 'Substance' compilation (and the B side to True Faith).
There's a lot of absolutely top New Order songs that never got released as singles: thinking of stuff like Age of Consent and Leave Me Alone for starters.
Technique is a fantastic album. Loved listening to that back in the day and still dip in to it occasionally.Sunrise (Low Life 1985) and Vanishing Point (Technique 1989) qualify very much in that category!!
The latter very nearly got released as a single, but New Order chose to release Fine Time instead.
I didn’t like Technique when it first came out but it’s grown on me over the years.Technique is a fantastic album. Loved listening to that back in the day and still dip in to it occasionally.

Tony Wilson (God rest his soul) would only have spent it on something else anyway! He couldn't complain that much as the Happy Mondays and New Order were by far Factory's biggest earners.I believe Tony Wilson wasn't impressed at paying for the band to essentially get pissed and E-d up in the Ibiza clubs for a few months under the pretext of recording the album...
Absolute tune!Inspiral Carpets - Dragging Me Down
Love Clint Boon's Farfisa organ playing on this.
