Underrated short-lived late '60s act in the shadow of and with many connections with Fairport Convention in particular. Founder member Trevor Lucas RIP went on to marry Sandy Denny RIP and himself join FP. I saw Eclection at Jimmy's in Steine Street (anyone here remember that place?) in 1968 or 69, and they were great.

Hey you lot have posted some great stuff on here (yet again). Looking forward to a listening catch-up laters after I've got the boring-choring out the way 
Going early as the day will be busy.
I wasn't expecing this to sound like this

Note there are at least 2 artists on youtube with the same name. If you like this, the ones to look for are on the channels Accidental Poet, "The GΔmes We PlΔy" and DSWL

[MENTION=21158]Weststander[/MENTION] Cracking version from 2018 Alexandra Palace on the new album

The live version on youtube in NYC in 1981 is also amazing. They hadn’t come up with the bulk of the lyrics yet, but the unique at the time danceable synths & rhythm machine sounds had been composed. Covered in detail in Hookie’s last autobio.
I was still at school, somehow (NME?) my mates and I cottoned to New Order at that time, instantly falling in love with the band and Joy Division.
See any gigs of theirs in the 80’s?

Town and country mid 80s. Always seemed to miss their gigs when they came up but had a preference for what was laid down and all the mixes and versions rather than live experience with them. Other bands however I love live completely different experience to listening to a track on headphones.
Wish I had added in the blu-ray option for the new album though
Apologies for two songs in one day

No problem at all, I still listen to JD and NO probably most weeks. 40 years on, timeless.
One of the beauties of NSC is all the other folk who happen to love late 70’s and 80’s bands.
Best ever gig I went to - New Order Aug’84 Portsmouth Guildhall, magical.
Spookily, given the New Order focus today, I was listening to this in the car earlier - played it on repeat all the way from Shoreham to The Level
