Slightly off-topic maybe but I enjoyed Electronic's B-sides too. Lucky Bag (Miami edit), Free Will (played live!), Second To None... The shitey Raise The Pressure lost some strong tracks to B-side status, like Imitation Of Life and All That I Need, which kick the butt off the album in my opinion. Never got the praise for I Feel All Right though, poor track...? Some Monaco trax were sadly missed as B-sides too, esp the aborted I've Got A Feeling single. Even more off-topic but there's a pic of Melanie C in pyjamas and it's for charity so you (I) can knock one off over it and not have to feel guilty afterwards. Guilt IS a useless emotion.

I'm surprised you didn't direct us to THIS website. It's only guilt free if you made a financial donation to 'Dream Walk' though...

I've never understood the taboo around masturbation. There are so many terriblle things in life - war, famine, Justin Bieber - you need a wank just to cheer yourself up. Back on topic - a vote for In A Lonely Place (Little Boy) even though you could consider it JD.

For Bsides not used elsewhere, and excluding remixes, I'd say "Behind Closed Doors" and "Don't Do It".

I like In A Lonely Place too. Shellcock and 1963 aren't bad either.

The best? Confused Instrumental.

The obvious The Beach runs it close.

Hello everybody, long time no see, i was on the old forum many years ago. I just rediscovered New Order, hearing them a lot these days ( no pun intended ;-) and I registered again.

My favourites b-sides : Lonesome Tonight, 1963 ('til 1995 before they gave it a refresh as a single) and Behind Closed Doors.

But i just learn right here right now there's a New Order mix for Vicious Circle ? I just know the Mr. Haas version. I don't find this NO mix on the web, please can someone give me a link to access it or send me it as a file ?

Thanks !

Regards, Christine

The NO mix of Vicious Circle was on the Ruined... cassette single only. Corporate pigs London cleverly spread the B-sides over all the formats so completists had to buy every one - the most useless being the second CD, a truckload of shitty mixes all sounding the same. Shite. I did like the K-Klass mix though.

Thank Michael. I'll check discogs.com to see what the London Rec people in charge did 20 years from now.
