JOY DIVISION BOX SET (MARCH 14 ONLY!) Heart and Soul is an incredible 4CD box set put out by the folks at Rhino Records! Disc One includes the entire landmark debut album Unknown Pleasures plus rare outtakes, compilation cuts, singles, and flexi-disc versions. Disc Two collects more singles and rarities and houses the whole of Closer, Joy Division's second and final album, released three months after lead singer Ian Curtis' suicide. Disc Three collects many of the group's hard-to-find recordings, including their seminal first EP, An Ideal For Living, demos, Peel Session takes, and radio session cuts, most of which have never before been released in the U.S. Finally, Disc Four captures the manic energy and power of Joy Division live, culled from four different concerts -- tracks previously unavailable in the U.S.
