“Ceremony” – New Order vs. Joy Division

 (Joy Division – “Ceremony”)

I would image the above version of “Cermony” is the famed tape that was the bridge between Joy Division and New Order after Ian Curtis’ death. I think I had read how Bernard Sumner had to work to decipher the lyrics. Then New Order re-recorded the song.

The above version is the best I’ve heard from New Order. I think (I know) it’s on the double CD compilation, Substance.
