Not that these are super necessary, but Joy Division's four "albums" Unknown Pleasures, Closer, Substance, and Still are being reissued this summer. Substance/ Still (which are essentially comps) will be reissued on 2LP 180g black and the other two records will be single as always. I normally wouldn't start a thread for something so regularly accessible, but I've yet to find a reasonably priced, decent copy of Still or Substance. There are plenty out there, but most of them are beat to shit. Sill- ~$41 Substance, Closer, UP- ~$22 Still haven't figured out why Still is double the price (when Substance is also a 2LP), but whatever. Also, all but Substance are the 2007 remasters, while Substance is a remaster from 2010. http://www.thestereoboutique.com/eu/s/joy-division

I recently purchased the 2007 reissue of Unknown Pleasures, and ran into a problem with "She's Lost Control" on the second side (Side B/Inside). When I started the song, it played the first ten seconds or so, then skipped several times. It got to more than halfway through the song, and then it just played normally. I cleaned the record when I bought it, I listened to that song a few times to see if it would stop, I re-calibrated my anti-skate/tonearm balance settings, listened to different records flawlessly, and I don't know what the issue seems to be stemming from. Is this a problem that anyone else has run into? I haven't found it anywhere else (though admittedly I didn't do a very thorough search). Did I just get a bad copy, perhaps? Should I contact someone about this?
