14 Feb 1979

[STUART MACLEAN]

Just listening to 14 Feb 1979 (thanks Stuart for posting that one to the Moo), with Gen X and Joy Division in session. 


Hard to believe that is now 40 years ago! As a life long JD fan but too young at the time (I was 11), I can only imagine how this session must have sounded to older Peel listeners, ones who can come through punk and post-punk.  Was the JD session viewed as something outstanding at the time, or is it just with 40 years of elapsed time that JD have become so 'huge'?
