According to the 'Shadowplayers' DVD, Wilson only released Electricity as a favour to Lindsey Reade because she said she liked it.

And also on that particular DVD I remember Alan Hempsall from Crispy Ambulance talking about Hannett removing some choral effects from one of thier songs which made me think if they had had been left on would that have been similar to what OMD later did on Souvenir??
I thot OMD owed a lot more to Ian Curtis.
Remember seeing Andy McCluskey on stage and I thot he's an amazing and unique dancer....until I saw Ian's dancing.:\ohwell:
Seeing as Tony Wilson owes alot to New Order for mismanagement and failed business ventures, couldnt OMD just pay the members of NO direct?
