Odd Man Out....They think it's all over. It is now!

Some New Order-related tricky teasers here - just for fun! See how many you can fathom out....

Which one in each of these lists is the odd man out and why?

1 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

2 Arthur Baker Martin Hannett Steve Osborne John Robie ??

3 Fac 73 Fac 83 Fac 93 Fac 103 ??

4 Movement Brotherhood Technique Substance ??

5 John Thomson The Stone Roses Ralf Little Caroline Aherne ??

6 Making Out Reportage Clocking Off Common As Muck ??

7 Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & Lies True Faith ??

8 Ceremony Bizarre Love Triangle Touched By The Hand Of God Atmosphere ??

9 Primal Scream Flowered Up The Charlatans Faith No More ??

10 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

(careful - this last one is a cheeky trick question!)

Have fun with all that grey matter! ;)

First off, I don't think Fac 83 was a NO single. BM was 73, Confusion was 93, and Thieves Like Us was 103.

Correct now for the OTHERS!

FAC 83 was a poster for 1 year of Haçienda. Well done!:D

#4 seems to be a bit obvious.....The first three are proper albums, while Substance is a collection.

1 & 10 are the same right?

Happy Mondays are the odd ones out since Hooky never played bass with them.

Total guesses, but here goes:

2. John Robie. He's only mixed New Order, not produced them.

3. John Thompson. Ralf Little Played Peter Hook, Caroline Aherne was married to Peter Hook and the Stone Roses were produced by Peter Hook.......leaving John Thompson who has nothing at all to do with Peter Hook.

4. Clocking Off. New Order or various parts of New Order provided music for the rest.

5. The Rest Of New Order. You're proud to have the other three in your collection.

1 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit? ... no, HM's only band without a NO member.

2 Arthur Baker Martin Hannett Steve Osborne John Robie ??

Steve Osbourne is only producer who hasn't produced NO.

3 Fac 73 Fac 83 Fac 93 Fac 103 ??

As mentioned.

4 Movement Brotherhood Technique Substance ??

Substance is a greatest hits album, others are new material.

5 John Thomson The Stone Roses Ralf Little Caroline Aherne ??

The Stone Roses are not immediately linked to NO

6 Making Out Reportage Clocking Off Common As Muck ??

NO did incidental music for all of the above except Reportage, which they were once in.

7 Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & Lies True Faith ?? True F

8 Ceremony Bizarre Love Triangle Touched By The Hand Of God Atmosphere ??

BLT is only album track.

9 Primal Scream Flowered Up The Charlatans Faith No More ??

10 New Order Happy Mondays Joy Division Revenge ??

Revenge are shit.

(careful - this last one is a cheeky trick question!)

Have fun with all that grey matter! ;)

Originally posted by Huntsman Steve Osbourne is only producer who hasn't produced NO.

I'd like to blank it out as well Hunts but Osbourne surely twiddled the knobs on Get Ready did he not?

Shit cakes. Your right.

Even when I posted it I thought, no, it is incorrect. Answer is this - all are alive except the late Martin Hannett.

The real tricky one is thus:

Regret (The Rest Of) New Order Power Corruption & LiesTrue Faith ??

PC & L - everything else had remixes as part of the product.

Excellent!

as mentioned before Hunts, Peter Hook produced Fools Gold for the Stone Roses so there is a neworder link.

ABSOLUTELY SPOT ON MATE!! 100%!! EXACTLY the answer I was looking for!

And some of you got Q3 right as well - so well done to those of you!!

As for some of the others (Q1, Q4, Q7 and Q8 in particular)- I've noticed you have given some answers that can be regarded as correct in a way, BUT, let's face it - they're rather obvious, and sadly NOT the ones I'm looking for - they just require a bit more thought - the answer to Q4 is particularly interesting especially if you reside in the UK (clue!) .

Keep 'em coming then! ;)

Q4 - they were playing dates in the US at the release time of each album...

I was trying these questions early this morning and i think although i got some of the POSSIBLE answers HUBERT had other harder answers.This is a great post HUBERT Some of the proper answers i had NO idea over.:D Rocket Mick

Originally posted by ShugZV Regret and True Faith both peaked at Number4, so I'll say that PCL did as well, which makes The rest of the odd man out

SHUGZV according to my GUINESS BRITISH ALBUMS PCL DID peak at number FOUR,in the charts for 29 weeks.Clever sod:D

Originally posted by ShugZV Regret and True Faith both peaked at Number4, so I'll say that PCL did as well, which makes The rest of the odd man out

WELL DONE THERE, LITTLE FELLA!!

Chartwatchers take note! Like Shuglet says: Taking the UK Albums and Singles Charts into consideration, True Faith made #4 in 1987, Likewise, Regret matched this peak in 1993, Power Corruption & Lies was New Order's first top 10 album - making #4 in 1983....which leaves (The Rest) of New Order - which on re-entry into the chart (after the original (The Best Of) also made #4 !!) managed to make only number 5 - thus this one is the odd one out!

That's Questions 3, 5 and 7 answered correct then!! :)

Awww... cheers fer that me aad radgie! Anyway - seeing that YOU know so much trivia about the band - I'm surprised you haven't been answerin' more of them...! ;)

Ok, time for another wild stab in the dark!

4. Movement - it's the only one that wasn't released straight away on CD.

5. Ceremony - wasn't released as a single in America.

4. Technique - all the others have numbers on the cover.

8. Touched - the others have all been re-released at some stage, haven't they ?

4- Technique It was recorded in Ibiza while the others were recorded in Blighty.

According to the band(Morris I think) they only recorded a few hi-hats in Ibiza.

Originally posted by Al Jarvis > Originally posted by Easy E> Q4 - they were playing dates in the US at the release time of each album...

They were playing UK dates at the time of Bro'hood's release (same week as Malvern, T&C, etc), and closest gigs to Technique's release were the French gigs, Jan 89. Probably right on the Substance front - Bunnymen tour? Can't comment on Movement. What month was that?

Movement was November 81. I meant that there was a US tour with each album, rather than the precise week of release !

So which one are you saying is the odd one out, then?!!

Technique - there wasn't a US tour within a month of the album release.
