MEMORIES |
|
To say Ian was impressed by Martin Hannett's work would be
an understatement. He came home enthusing about the sampling of
glass-smashing and hand-clapping. Hannett already had considerable experience recording
unusual sounds and atmospheres, and his marvelous production of
Joy Division's drums became an integral part of the music. His ability
to translate their thoughts and needs into a coordinated work of
art was the catalyst Joy Division badly needed |

Martin Hannett had arranged a special
rehearsal rate for using off-peak hours at Strawberry Studios in
Stockport |
