Remembering Ian Curtis
July 15, 1956 – May 18, 1980
Wow, it’s hard to believe that it’s been 29 years since the death of Joy Divison vocalist, Ian Curtis. To all his fans, and to those that didn’t really know anything about him or the band’s music, but who still love a compelling and beautifully directed / photographed biography, I highly recommend the film Control, directed by Anton Corbijn, which is just excellent and available now on DVD.
Thanks to Steve Stav for the Tip!

There’s a very good Joy Division documentary as well, “Joy Division: the true story of the meteoric rise and fall of one of the most influential bands of our time.” All the New Order lads contribute. Ian’s girlfriend as well, but not his wife.
