Album Notes
New Order: Bernard Sumner, Peter Hook, Gillian Gilbert, Stephen Morris.Additional personnel: Andrew Robinson, Mac Quayle (programming).Producers: Arthur Baker, New Order, Martin Hannett, Stephen Hague.Engineers: Chris Nagle, Michael Johnson, Mike "Spike" Drake.Includes liner notes by Paul Morley.Covering their career from 1981-1993, the 17-track (THE BEST OF) NEW ORDER features at least one track from each of the band's albums, the odd single or two, and a handful of remixes. Focusing on their late-period work, there are a couple of overlaps with the 1987 collection, SUBSTANCE, but there's still more than enough additional material to justify it. Many of the band's high points are here: "Dreams Never End" from MOVEMENT, "Age of Consent" from POWER, CORRUPTION AND LIES, and "Love Vigilantes" from LOW LIFE, along with a remix of BROTHERHOOD'S "Bizarre Love Triangle". TECHNIQUE is represented by that album's standout track, "Run," as well as three others, while REPUBLIC gets three tracks, including the hit "Regret". Also included are remixed versions of "1963," "Round & Round," and the 1988 chart-topping version of "Blue Monday". For fans, the album also contains the hard to find "Touched by the Hand of God" and the previously single-only tracks, "Let's Go" and "World in Motion," an odd song written for the British soccer team as it entered into the 1990 World Cup. (THE BEST OF) NEW ORDER puts the spotlight on some of their finest moments, and is a fine introduction to the band.
