Paris, an unlikely twin for [url=http://www.discogs.com/master/23283]Preston[/url] (get69). This LP is, of course, of its time; not just late 1979 when it was recorded, as Joy Division beat up their sound and vision to move implacably on, from "Unknown Pleasures" to "Closer", but also Spring 2001, the date of release, reminding us, in the dog days of another culture, traumatised by synthetic rock and an increasingly aimless dance culture, reminding us what pop music is and can be. Thank you Mr Mathers and you limp biscuit boys. But we can do it too. We can be real. And this band was more real than most of us can still cope with. Enjoy. ©NMC 2001 ℗2001 Get Back manufactured on behalf of NMC Music Ltd. All rights reserved. Abraxas srl - via Aretina, 25 50069 Sieci (Firenze) Italy
