Joy Division - Eternal (Live) (CD/DVD)

Pulling together myriad audio sources from audience recordings to sound desk tapes to international radio broadcasts, the Joy Division - Eternal (Live) box set features 16 full audio concert recordings across 14 CDs, plus approximately 2 hours 20 minutes of live video on two DVDs, recorded between March 1979 through May 1980, just two weeks before Ian Curtis' tragic death.

Please note: audio quality across these sources varies widely. Most of the audience recordings sound exactly like what they are - recorded by a fan in the crowd - and multiple concerts have been widely bootlegged. Although under normal circumstances this might make for a sub-optimal commercial offering, in this instance we have every confidence that Joy Division fans will revel in these official bootlegs, and be overjoyed by the higher quality recordings, especially with those that are previously unheard. 

Following on from previous New Order Definitive Edition releases, Eternal is presented in a 12-inch rigid box, with the discs housed in four digipaks, alongside a softback 12-inch book featuring new liner notes by UK Poet Laureate and Joy Division fan Simon Armitage, as well as photography by Anton Corbijn and Kevin Cummins.
