Joy Division & New Order's Stephen Morris On His Top 13 Albums


Stephen Morris - he who drummed for both Joy Division and New Order, both considered hallowed deities by those of us who inhabit The Quietus bunker - is comparing the agony of selecting 13 albums for our Bakers Dozen feature to choosing records for a DJ set. "You end up realising most of the records you've got are shit anyway," he says. "And even the ones you think are good probably aren't particularly good. But if other people don't like them... well, I don't worry about that."

His choices:
John Cale - Paris 1919
Television - Marquee Moon
Neu! - Neu!
Steve Reich - Drumming
Can - Tago Mago
Brian Eno - Taking Tiger Mountain (By Strategy)
Sparks - No. 1 In Heaven
Van der Graaf Generator - Pawn Hearts
The Fiery Furnaces - Bitter Tea
Betty Davis - They Say I'm Different
LCD Soundsystem - Sound Of Silver
Kraftwerk - Trans-Europe Express
DJ Shadow - Entroducing
