Hi, apologies if this is the wrong forum but I've just signed up to NewOrderOnline. I wondered if anyone could shed any light on a new Joy Division box set of 2cd's. The first is a compilation of tracks by them, the second a compilation of covers. It has an embossed white hard cover and is published by Universal Music Publishing 2007. I presume it's a film tie-in. Is this a genuine rarity or another rip-off? Any thoughts appreciated.

Welcome GAMICS.Can you name some of the covers?Haven't heard of this release myself but i don't collect anymore so can't help you.No doubt someone will be along soon to clarify all this.
Regards Rocket Mick
I think I have to call boot on this one. As far as I know the last JD issues are the re-issues (I'm still waiting for mine) and three songs on the Control soundtrack.
Warners and London Records are the official copyright holders as far as I know.

I've been known to be wrong. Let's see what Tim has to say.
Hi again, covers are as follows: LCD Soundsystem - No Love Lost Moby - New Dawn Fades Susanna & The Magical Orchestra - LWTUA The Pink Mountaintops - Atmosphere Galaxie 500 - Ceremony Girls Against Boys - She's Lost Control Low - Transmission Versus - 24 Hours Star Children - Isolation Grace Jones - She's Lost Control (Duve Version) Nine Inch Nails - Dead Souls Tortoise - As You Said Technova - Atmosphere The string Quartet - New Dawn fades Calexico - LWTUA
A pretty strange mix
Other info: Inside cover photos credited to Anton Corbijn and Kevin Cummins.

Well that is interesting news about Universal. Will we see a whole lot more reissues then?
OLD BLUE i had read that 2nd link earlier but couldn't see the PROMO mentioned.What a delightful ITEM!
And good morning to you all.........
Thanks for that Old Blue. No doubt numerous copies of the 'limited edition' will turn up over coming months. I also read in Record Collector that 'Permanent' will get the reissue treatment soon. Shame it's not the New Order back catalogue with extras but that's another thread!
Far too nice to be a boot surely?
Methinks the packaging is more interesting than the content really,obviously already having the original tracks,& I'm not sure I want a cd of inferior covers,Lcd Soundsystem being an exception,IMO 
It's a promotional item only, issued by their publishers to promote the recorded works (at this rather appropriate time).
Definitely not a bootleg - very nice if you can afford it...
I would have purchased one, but 200 quid+ - ouch...

Just think of all the money you'd save if you gave up smoking, Nick, could've aforded it then...

Bollocks to that, no promo is worth that! 
I do recognize most of the covers, but not all. So it's like a "best of JD covers" too? Where is Isolation by Therapy?(?) It is by favorite JD cover next to NIN, and it is far better than that crappy Starchildren version. I find that Starchildren version weird.
Indeed*!*
