[Flash Harry]

This is one of my most favourite ever songs. Your version is smashing.

I saw Ian and the guys in Madchester supporting the Chubzuks in 1979, they blew Messrs Diggle and Shelley off the face of the planet. I was like WTF was that.

Amazing cover. 

[Tangled Wires]

Fabulous cover, literally makes the hairs on the back of your neck stand up.

Completely compelling listen!

[bruno]

Excellent vocals on this - a speedy double recording :-)
A double-fester

[Redler]

Works well on acoustic!! Top class vocal, the outro is very impressive!

[Greeny]

What a brilliant and left-field interpretation. It has no right to work as well as this! Beautifully done. Fresh but melancholic. I think Mr Peel would have appreciated this.

[fenderbender]

Cool clear and fantastic
love it James

[Pete C]

Grand tell thi mam ! as they'd say in my part of the country

[Burtog]

Gotta admit I never really had a Joy Division phase.....yet, so dont know many of the songs over well but in its own right the cover sounds just fecking awesome!

my first wife saw them in the glasgow apollo supporting the buzzcocks she took great pleasure in telling me often what a great band i never got to see live.
