Formed in Manchester, England in the late 1970s, the group consisted of \u003cbr\u003eIan Curtis on vocals, Bernard Albrecht (aka Sumner, aka Dicken) on guitar, Peter Hook on bass and Stephen Morris on drums. Hook, Albrecht and Curtis hooked up at a local concert and later formed the group Warsaw.\u003cbr\u003eThe band’s name was taken from a David Bowie-Brian Eno composition, “Warszawa”.\u003cbr\u003e \u003cbr\u003eThe 5 bonus tracks on this album are demos cut by the group at Pennine Studios in Manchester on July 18, 1977 with Steve Brotherdale on drums.\u003cbr\u003eThe first eleven tracks presented here were the result of a recording session for that album that took place in early May of1978. Rehearsals leading up to the session resulted in two new songs\u003cbr\u003ebeing added to the group’s existing repertoire: “Interzone” and “Transmission.” “Interzone” was based on the backing track of the song “Keep\u003cbr\u003eOn Keepin’ On,” to which the band added their own lyrics. The result was a song distinctively their own. “Transmission” was written by the band during the final week of rehearsals.\u003cbr\u003eThe first verse contains a quotation from Alistair Crowley’s The Book Of Thoth. The two recordings are interesting renditions of songs which would later become famous.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Vinyl Passion","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44463210365084,"sku":"VPD90152","price":16.18,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0130\/8714\/6043\/files\/image010_92d19cd7-02ad-4492-8bed-759b0d81b7d5.png?v=1726592419","url":"https:\/\/www.horizonsmusic.co.uk\/products\/warsaw-warsaw-1lp-coloured-black-white","provider":"Horizons Music","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
