Finally got my Neworder rarities CD back from Hibster, and had the pleasure of hearing some classics again, still not sure about Haystack though:lol: Mr Blue, Mr Benny or Mr Al, or indeed anyone else......where did theme come from, I know it was available on various websites, but which year was it, where was it recorded etc....it's been bugging me for ages! Also Mr Blue, where did the Thieves single version come from?

Thieves...it's a rip straight from the vinyl 7" (you do know there is a TLU 7", don't you? :skeptic: ), along with Lonesome from the flip side.

Theme was released on a Crepescule comp called The Quick Neat Job released in about 85 time, I think. No idea about the history of the track, just something they had lying around on the studio floor, probably. On the album, it's actually credited to Be Music, not New Order. Hope that helps?

Cheers Mr Blue, that certainly cleared up my question about Theme, as fer TLU, too much alcohol over the years has played havoc with my memory, as fer TLU, too much alcohol over the years has played havoc with my memory;)
