[.ca] Still

fyi:
The symbol on the front cover of still is not the symbol for factory records.It is the symbol for joy division's publishing company, "fractured music".

UN CLÁSICO EN LA OSCURIDAD:
AHH,ESTE DISCO... LA VOZ BARÍTONA DE IAN, QUE PARECE DECIRME: ¡ESTOY ACORRALADO, SÁLVAME...! JOY DIVISION FUE EL ESCAPE A EL INFIERNO, IAN, A PESAR DE TODO, DESCANSA EN PAZ, Y QUE JOY DIVISION SEA LA BANDA DE SONIDO DE LA POBRE VIDA DE TODOS USTEDES.

Question disguised as a reveiw.:
Hey guys, what is that symbol on the cover of this thing? What is it called? What does it mean? I wont be able to sleep until I find out. Excelent album though, except sister ray which drove me crazy.

Joy Division's odds and ends with live performances:
This album was released after Ian Curtis died in 1980. The album consists of tracks left over there were never released on any of their albums at the time (until heart and soul was released). This album is split in two parts the first 9 tracks make up the stidio outtakes and tracks 10-20 were all live and are not available elsewhere at least not to my knowledge. I quite liked the cover of Velvet Underground's Sister Ray and at the end Ian declares "you should hear are version of Louie Louie". This contains what I think is the only known live recording of Ceremony performed by Joy Division before they became New Order and recorded the song. This is just my own opinion but I still think that this is "STILL" essential to purchase and the live tracks are worth the price alone.

Answer to Question as Review:
The symbol on the cover of Still is the Factory Records logo, Joy Division's record label. Since I'm in the area.... I've owned this album for about 15 years and it still sounds, in parts, as solid as anything Joy Division ever did. Some of the live stuff is so-so but studio tracks like The Kill, Dead Souls, Exercise One, They Walked In Line and Something Must Break are damn near worth the price of admission alone. If you already like Joy Division, thereby showing good taste, this is a great album. If you find yourself slowly descending beneath the black cloud of depression, Unknown Pleasures should fit. If you have been there and find yourself wanting out, Closer is the soundtrack. This album is more varied in mood, for established fans and safer for household pets.
