Joy Division ‎– Still

Genre:

Style:

New Wave

Year:

1981

Notes:

Still is a "posthumous" double album by Joy Division, consisting of previously unused studio material and originally a live recording of Joy Division's last concert in High Hall, Birmingham University on 2 May 1980.
The live performance includes the only time the group ever performed the song "Ceremony" live, which later became a New Order single. Another song featured is a cover of The Velvet Underground's "Sister Ray", recorded at The Moonlight Club in London on 2 April 1980.

The song "Twenty Four Hours" was also performed live at Birmingham University, but was left off the CD release due to time constraints. Despite not being listed on the sleeve, it appears on some LP pressings.

This album has been remastered and was re-released in 2007. The remaster is packaged with a bonus disc, recorded at the Town Hall, High Wycombe.

does anybody know what the original inner sleeves for this were like?
my copy has generic plain white inners, but my copy of the regular grey gatefold edition has heavy grey card inners...any ideas?

A mixture of Live and Studio recordings - released after the death of Ian Curtis - comes in a 'cloth' sleeve with ribbon down the side - classic record, but bloody pricy!
