| | | There really is no need for this but nice choice of songs.
I like the way Sam Riley is pictured instead of Ian |

| | | I think it's a nice beginner set for newer fans, it does have a very nice tracklisting, I esp. like the second Peel session with "The Sound of Music," which to me is miles better than the recorded version. Although I wish "Novelty" was on it, I have a huge soft spot for that song although it seems no one else likes it... |

Many of my students know it well. I have lent Unknown Pleasures to some of them.

My Unknown Pleasures shirt was super old and I think it crumbled into pieces.  I must find a replacement. It was my favorite ever T shirt. |

I think I need a spare UP one as well, just for safeties. I'm always amazed when people who I expect to be much cooler than to compliment a t-shirt go "OZGM where did you get that?". I always thought it was kind of an obvious design. There were at least half a dozen that I saw at The Cure.
