I always describe Sam Cooke‘s voice, as the voice of an angel. One of the most beautiful, soulful voices that I heard from my pre teen years and one which still continues to this day ❤️ #Soulmusic #60sSoul #SamCooke soulandmod.com/growing-up-wit…

Ian Curtis’s last known photo wasn’t taken by a famous photographer, or in some dramatic setting. It was a simple Photo-Me booth portrait, shot inside the old Woolworths on Mill Street in Macclesfield on May 15, 1980. Just a few days before everything changed. He went there to get passport pictures ready for Joy Division’s upcoming North American tour. Terry Mason, the band’s road manager, later said Ian handed him a couple of signed copies that same day so they could be sent to the U.S. Embassy. One of those small prints resurfaced decades later and ended up at auction, where it was treated as the final image of Ian taken while he was alive. What makes the photo powerful isn’t the setting. It’s how ordinary it is. No stage lights, no Anton Corbijn shadows, no Kevin Cummins snow. Just Ian, seated in a booth, doing something practical for the band’s next chapter. A quiet moment frozen right before the end. Sometimes the most unassuming images are the ones that hit the hardest. #joydivision #IanCurtis #PostPunk

Personally I still love a DVD, but in response to hearing 'I aint got a DVD player no more' on many occasions, we took our film 'John Simons - A Modernist' onto Amazon Prime. You can rent or buy it here - amazon.co.uk/John-Simons...… Poster design : Andrew Higginbotham
