Damn, 1979 was a great year, even if I was a candy ass playing Atari who didn't know it at the time. The bands all lived it, felt it, BELIEVED it.

Watch. Joy Division. 1979.

Girlcrawl says Pausing to worship Joy Division - the talent these lads possessed still renders me near speechless; evokes many fond memories, and great post!

ciphermedia says In a lot of the wide shots, it doesn't look like a lot is going on with Ian Curtis. Then you see the close-ups and realise how much he's like a tightly wound spring. Great stuff to see and hear. Thanks, ebuzz.

snakama says Indeed.. I was definitely too young to appreciate the music of the late 70's, until a decade later.

Party Pose says They should make some sort of DVD compilation out of performances on Something Else from 1979. This is mind-blowing, as is Siouxsie and the Banshees doing "Love In A Void" on that show. The shit will rip you a new asshole.
