Ooo! I'd like to see ACR again so keep us informed.

Also, it appears I missed what must've been a very low-key Ladytron gig in Brighton last Friday (arse!) - loving the new single...!!!

Chris :D

Didn't know there was one. 1980 though?! Ouch. That's a way long time ago!

Mr Nice is actually hoping to release a New Order live CD. Dunno if I can mention it here though, don't see why not mind.

SECOND ONE DOWN

I wonder what NO gig? This ACR disc has a track from Hurrahs in New York (which has been available elsewhere for quite a while now) when they supported New Order. I always have it in the back of my mind that someone must have left the tape running and still has it...

This has probably been done to death here, CC, but I can't be arsed to search. "Looking For A Certain Ratio" is a goodie, cos it's mixes of some of their classic tracks, otherwise a lot of their best stuff came in the mid-80's. "Force" is, for me, their finest studio album, then there's "Live In America" when they accompanied the Order round the States and an eclectic mix of singles and suchlike called "Old & The New".

In the early 90's they had "ACR:MCR", which is a corker, and in the past couple of years they've had another compliation released called "Early" which was, basically, their earlier(dur!) stuff!
