JOY DIVISION: LE DISQUE VINYLE LE PLUS RARE AU MONDE  33T 1 À SAINT TROPEZ

You who are looking for the ultimate piece in your collection of this huge band of music, here it is, you have just found. Condition: EX+ cover and  NM disc Extremely rare. Gatefold sleeve. Only 200 copies in the world edited in 1985.  The sound is breathtaking, i've never heard basses so deep and others instruments so clear on all  recording media otherwise available (Strange Fruit 1991, remasters on The Best Of 2006 etc.) and this is due to the reading speed 45 rpm. Absoluty an hypnotic performance (Paul MORLEY, NME).  Tracklist: Side A: Exercise one / Insight / She's lost control / Transmission  Side B: Love will tear us apart / Twenty four hours / Colony / The sound of music  Source: the two Peel Sessions january & september 1979 (studios BBC & Maida Vale) I bought it in LONDON in 1986 at a specialized record shop (unofficial release). A magnficient highly collectible objet for a real fan! The artwork was inspired by Peter SAVILLE, initially planned for STILL album. Really much rarer than the french 7" SORDIDE SENTIMENTAL " Licht und Blindheit" SS 33002. You'll never find this item elsewhere on sale (auctions websites, Discogs, CD&LP etc.). The graphic comes from the painting of Caspar David FREIDRICH "Monastery cimetery in the snow", the painter become popular with the "Traveler contemplating a sea of clouds". EXTRAS: incredible sound effects at the begenning and the end of each disc as follows: Side A begins with thunder and rain sound effects, then a scratching sound (as the needle is roughly sliding across the grooves), and then some mad laughter followed by a "welcome!". After the tracks it closes with another stylus scratching noise and an annoyed voice exclaiming something along the lines of "Hey, what are you trying to do, man? You ruined my record, I just bought it!" Side B features, dialogue taken from (or later used in) an Apollonia Six (Prince offshoot) album spoken word track called Ooo She She Wa Wa at the beginning and the end. Side B starts with the following dialogue: "God bless Susan and Brenda and my rabbit, Smokey Oh, and God, please bless all the people on Neptune Amen Apollonia? Who said that? It's Brenda from Neptune {laughter} Get up girl, its too early to be in bed Oh Brenda, what is it? Get up I'm tired Come here, I want you to hear something What? Come on, come on Oh Brenda, where are we going? Shhh, listen What do you mean I'm too young? Maybe you're too old Hey, I happen to like my teddy bear Well, for one thing, he's bigger than you {hangs up phone} Hey, who's there? It's the men from Neptune:::laughter::: Oh you... you guys OK, Apples, put on some clothes Susan, take some off We're going out to play (Yeah!) This dialogue is followed by Love will tear us apart, 24 hours, Colony and The Sound of music At the end of side B the dialogue continues: Hello sweetheart, it's Brenda Hello sweetheart, it's Brenda Hold on honey Come on you guys, put it in the bank, I'm trying to talk Well, we're so sorry Come on Susan, I'll tuck you in OK I'm sorry darling, where were we? What? No, not really Nah, it's just something she says Whenever she goes to see this Spanish guy she knows in the valley Never mind that Let's talk about you and I This is followed by a deep processed voice stating something like "No you punk, I'm not ruining your new record. This is brought to you by The Snowman" ALL QUESTIONS ARE WELCOME, OTHERS PICTURES AVAIBLE ON REQUEST. DELIVERY FOLLOWED TO MY CHARGE WITH INSURANCE IN CASE OF LOSS.
