Summary
Paul Morley: Joy Division: Piece by Piece
Joy Division: Piece by Piece is the definitive collection of Morley's recordings of this legendary band over the years. Along with a collection of his now-classic writings about the band from the late 1970s and 1980s, this unique book also includes a highly poetic obituary dedicated to Ian Curtis, as well as his subsequent reflection on the importance of the group itself in the form of a lengthy essay. The subsequent review also refers to the film 24 Hour Party People, which is about the Manchester label Factory that released the music of Joy Division as well as many other post-punk bands. The book also includes his review of the film Control, the making of which he had the opportunity to watch.
