I keep waiting for a new Joy Division record, but apparently Ian Curtis is really precious with his lyrics.

Ugh, what a horribly morbid and ironic album that would be.

Can Lydon afford to sue over that one, too?

Doubt it but he will whine "me, me, me, poor old me" none the less. Remember all those bands that formed after seeing Sex Pistols must pay homage to his greatness.

In honor of the upcoming 50th anniversary of the release of Ziggy Stardust, BBC Radio 4 aired "Ziggy At 50" documentary, along with outtakes of the recording sessions as well as a "lost" BBC session version of "Ziggy Stardust" not aired since 1972.
FLAC format, about 57 minutes long, I'll leave it up for a week or so.

Found this from a link in an email I received from Rhino Records today.

Celebrating 50 years of 'The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders From Mars', this new version of STARMAN takes the backing track (recorded at Trident Studios on 29th June) and backing vocals, featuring a one-off Bowie ad-lib, recorded for the show and adds the lead vocals from the album version (recorded at Trident Studios on 4th February). This new mix was created by album co-producer Ken Scott from the multi-tracks.

This looks great! I've liked his other documentaries.
