Apologies if this has already been discussed... but what is Centredate? And why did Republic and the Factory reissues show it as the copyright holder instead of London Records 90?
I imagine it has something to do with the whole handover of publishing rights, but I'd be curious to know the way all that worked out.
I'll remember this tomorrow...
What was the name of the company that was all over the front of the Hacienda years ago?
That was something like a shelter company...

Gainwest which (I believe) is a New Order company.
It was. See Biginoil's link above for all the answers to who was what etc with the various companies.
Hooky: "No, I don’t think they expect too much, really we haven’t had that complaint. Unless it’s (pounding on the table) ‘when that bloody New Order album coming out!?’"
I tell him that I asked because on the Ceremony bulletin board, fans debate some of things New Order have done, like the remixes for "Ruined In A Day" for example.
Hooky: "But by very virtue of the fact that there’s New Order bulletin board out there. I say that it strikes me that there’s a bit of an unhealthy interest shown from some individuals about New Order. I think what you Americans call ‘anal’ you know. And to get critized from someone who reads so much into it…"
Sounds familiar.

Sorry - missed the link. Gainwest is ingrained in my memory as I used to work in the offices next door to the Hac - Enterprise House - and saw the sign every day.
Used to idle away many an afternoon watching out for various members' cars parked across the road. Wilson's massive Jag seemed to be there the most.
