You can tell me "about fookin time", but well, I had Heart & Soul, so I didn't really needed to buy it :D

I must say I was just looking for fun, then I realized it was the FACTORY edition from 1987 (Canadian edition done by Polygram)... I just can't believe this CD was in the bins for the last 19 years :eek3:

Anyways, it was 10$, so why not go for one to complete your collection ;)

Maybe one day I'll see Unknown Pleasures ;) Usually the stands only have Substance over here.

Tout est sur Heart & Soul, alors je n'ai jamais vraiment eu besoin de l'acheter.

I do have Still & Preston, Bain Douches, etc...

But yes, I still don't have Unknown Pleasures.

Let's say I took my time to get into Joy Division ;)

Speechless. Totally speechless. Do you have things like Movement and PC&L?

Of course... I bought Movement in 1993 while going to see New Order, and that was the last album to complete the circle of the New Order collection :lol:

I do have everything of Joy Division that is available on CD, but like I said, I never bothered to buy the albums because I bought Heart & Soul which has the full 2 albums on it...

And I must say, I've never seen Unknown Pleasures for sale anywhere, so I'd actually have to buy it online, that might be one of the reason ;)

it is true. Closer is FACOZ 1001. for some reason Unknown Pleasures is FACOZ 1003. it must have become Factory Australia sometime after that and all my subsequent Factory vinyl carries the normal FACT numbers, including my JD singles.

Wonder if you want to be as 'anal' as moi....my FACOZ Unknown Pleasures has different kinda texture/pattern on the cardboard slick to the UK Factory ones...and the USA Qwest one is slightly diff too... On the vinyl side, I collect the FACOZ 'EMI' & also the FACOZ 'CBS SONY' ones. While we are on JD stuffs, anyone here can tell me if car-carry case for JD's 'STILL' exist? I have UP & Closer but no STILL.:(
