QuoteJordyLicks96 ............. Dandelion w/ We Love You always confused me. I always thought that was a Double A-Side but apparently Dandelion was promoted to the A-side in the US after charting at #14, whereas We Love You charted at #50. In case, in its time it was "We Love You" w/ "Dandelion" in that order as double A-side.

QuoteRisingStone ...... QuoteWitness ..... I prefer the first four New Order albums to their later ones, generally. That being said, their best ‘album’ is, IMHO, the 1987 Substance 2CD’s, the compilation of the (mostly) 12-inch singles up to that point. Maybe I belong to the old school among the NO fans, even though I’m okay with dance music in general.

This thread gradually transformed into more or less a remembrance thread for Charlie. I do not think all posters were fully aware of that from the start, myself included.

Understandable frustration about that arose, but, surprisingly, also even instances of ja

QuoteGasLightStreet For reasons only Mick knows they have not done anything as brilliant as The Beatles' anthologies. Time for such a thing still has some value.
