DVD Reviews of New Order: Live in Glasgow
DVD Review: Finally, truly rare footage (on Disc 2)
Summary: 4 Stars
Like some (most?) fans I bought it mainly for the second disc with rare and unseen footage.
Yes, we are rewarded here with the eclectic repertoire from the first TV appearance in April 1981 (Celebration) to one of the final concerts in 2006. I had wanted the Celebration footage for years (you have a snippet of it in NewOrderStory) and it's great to have it finally. Then come Glastonbury shots, which are worth every cent you spend for this DVD. Apparently pissed or otherwise influenced Bernard Sumner is completely off the hook there, being enraged by the longhair audience, who is not ready for drum machines; in the meantime the cameraman, dazed too, is trying to tune his own sight: camera wanders unfocused on the floor, eerie wires and blurry knobs. Right before the concert some dude filmed Rob Gretton and the band getting out of their old Ford and camping around, which is amusing. Knowing "Barney" Sumner's personality and attitude, it's unbelievable that something like this officially saw the light of day (well no wonder, the entire project was carried mostly by bassist Peter Hook and drummer Steven Morris). After that the footage quality becomes less professional: like blue x-rays of a dancing body at a gay disco. Almost monochrome, shot from one stand, the footage has surprisingly great sound quality; "Hurt" and "Ultraviolence" are superb, although ONE BIG DOWN: the first 10 or so tracks lack basses! I had my subwoofer all the way up and still barely can get any low register.
The 2006 section is kinda out of place: disc 1 represents the band at their latest already (it'd been better then to use some of the January 2006 Manchester show consisting completely out of Joy Division songs, like "Warsaw", "24 Hours").
As for the concert in Glasgow, I was reluctant initially to buy it, had it not for disc 2. More or less it's the same type of concert that we could get on "316" (2001) and "511" (2004), with addition of "Waiting For The Sirens' Call" songs. The band apparently realizing this decided to embed their comments in between the tracks, which is a neat but underdeveloped idea here. The sound may be better than on "511", the true rarities are great "Shadowplay", "These Days" and "The Perfect Kiss", while turning "Love Will Tear Us Apart" into a whoping, crowd-chanted anthem makes you cringe. Ironically, when the band was making NewOrderStory back in 1993, they didn't give a hint of what was going on; this time, going separate ways again, the antagonism is clearly seen.
