Peter Hook & The Light perform 'Dead Souls' - November 2020. 

Sublime! New Order don’t exist without Hooky.

Two basses shaking my house and my wife is trying to sleep.

This is what made Joydivision and new order so distinguished in sound those awesome hooky bass riffs !! Cheers everyone !!

I am a massive Joy Division but never saw them live. I did see practically all of my favourites back in the day, U2, Siouxsie, Echo, The Cure etc and indeed New Order in 82 and 83 in Dublin. I thought my JD live experiences were restricted to RU-vid and even the Control movie, which was great by the way. So when Peter Hook and The Light played a bizarre gig in Dublin's Leopardstown Racecourse in 2014, I could not believe my luck. There were probably 100 people there, most just having a drink after the evening's race card. I'd guess there 20-30 there specifically to see the band. But Peter Hook and the band never made any sarky comments about the crowd and played it as good as they would any big gig. You can tell he and the band love the music and playing these songs. I loved his vocals too. He sings the songs with real meaning, love and passion. I saw The Light and was in New Wave Nirvana ! Thanks Peter and the band for a great night and one of the best gigs I was ever at. It was a dream come true for this fan I can tell you.

"They keep calling me!" They certainly do. Thanks so much to Hooky and the Light for this. Great Band. Pray for the holy soul of Ian.

The Legend that is Peter Hook 🙌

Please keep doing these as long as you guys can stand it. Not only is it the closest thing to a live show we're getting for the foreseeable future, but it's also a great resource for learning these songs.

I can NEVER get tired of hearing this song

Incredible. This is the closest I'll ever get to Joy Division in my lifetime. It sounds incredibly good & there's no better voice/person to be fronting this than Peter. I hope you keep this up for a very, very long time. Thank you Peter & the tight backing band. Salford punk!

This song's bass-line is just so addictive

Brilliant - Thank you all and never stop playing JD

The sound of Joy division and New Order. Hook on bass 👌

Stunning stuff. These sessions really do bring the dullest of Lockdown days alive. Cheers boys. To the time again when we can witness this brilliance live. Not too long, I hope.

Hooky seems to have a better understanding of what made JD/NO great. Compared to Barney who seems to forget everything

The only one and right one to be aware of the heritage of Joy Division. Thank you very very much Peter Hook...Stay tuned and love all of our spirit of JD

Peter Hook sings this song well He is a legend

Thanks for all the work you guys are doing and praying for the day the live gigs are able to be performed.

Seen New Order 65 times live (with Hooky) wouldn't go and see them again. Hooky has brought back to life all the great tracks from Joy Division to New Order. One of my best moments was ' homage' in Poland 2016

IMHO, Hooky caries the flame of Joy Division and pre-Substance New Order rather than the actual group New Order of today.

One of my Favourite 49 songs by Joy Division! See yous at Rebellion 2022 ! dx

thank you for giving us this beautiful taste of live music when we are all starving for it! such a great rendition 💜

Excellent, as ever. Random fact 1, my ex swears she saw Peter Hook in Derby, shopping about 14 years ago... and it still comes up in conversation. Random fact 2, After Ian left us, in requiem, I stole all of the blue neon from the roof of the Ajanta Theatre in Derby, which was the venue of the 2nd to last Joy Division gig, ever. I had it in my flat during the 80's, and I still have one piece left, which resides on the wall of the studio. It always reminds me of Ian,, and how difficult it is to shimmy down a drain pipe whist carrying 6 foot long neon tubes, in the rain.

One of the top 5 most influential musicians in my life: Peter Hook! 🤘🏽🔥🤘🏽🔥

Met Peter a few times. A genuinely lovely bloke. Glad he's still doing what he loves. Looking forward to next year's gigs✊🏻👍🏻👌

Dead Souls makes this soul feel alive!

I love the way Peter Hook plays the bass guitar.

Probably the best playing band Hooky has had......

Cheers Peter for helping us all through this and reminding us that we live for art such as yours and others .Hoping to dream of a day when we can see you live !!!!

Best ever Joy Division song for me. Perfect.

BACK FOR MORE AMAZING HOOKY....LOVE IT.

I could listen for hours that bass.

After hearing the newest New Order release I have to say Hooky's bass lines were essential.

The moment I listened to Joy Division, I immediately fell in love with their songs.

You guys are absolute legends ! Who could ask for better during the current times...We all appreciate your time and effort in putting this together 🎸🐝

Astonishingly good. A few tears here........

I will always love this song

My favourite track ever of JD ! So lovely, so dark, so powerful, so everything...

My Favourite of all time! Been into em since I was 14 in 1978 ! dx

This is an unbelievable version

Fantastic sounding! Rock on!

The sound is amazing. I really REALLY love the fx on Hookys Vocals. It's got that lovely Sizzle!

That stutter drum bit on 4th beat - nailed it!

They just keep getting better and better. Like a fine wine.

Words cant explain having heard this played........top tune....

This is the first time I've seen them and Peter Hook seems to be a VERY good frontman and certainly knocks New Order and Bernard into a cocked hat. Far better than New Order.

Great performance. I love the initial instrumental

Justice well done to one of JD’s best

Peter Hook & The Light = Excelente sonido🔥🎸🤘

I was starting to wonder if Hooky was gonna sing but the intro to Dead Souls live was always pretty flexible.

My personal favorite of Peter Hooks bass melodies is Sound of Music.

Love the 2 bass intro...and outro is even better...

more live recordings please! thank you

Now THIS was a great start to this week!! Thanks for sharing! :)

Made me cry. it's so good!

What a truly majestic song and powerful, heartfelt performance - what you guys have done for your fans during lockdown has been nothing short of inspirational. Thank you.

Spectacular, anthological!

Hooky gets a lot of stick for setting up as a “karaoke band”. I disagree. He is obviously doing what he loves and playing live music. NO still only play the odd show. Where else would you get a member of JD/NO playing for 3+ hours and giving it everything every time? Fair play to him!

You are the most respect bassist in the world ❣️

Saw New Order at the Roskilde Festival (Denmark) on July 1st, 1984 for the first time... Then I saw the band again at the Reading Festival (England) on August 25 th, 1989. The bill was just incredible : Gaye Bikers On Acid, Spacemen 3, My Bloody Valentine, That Petrol Emotion, Tackhead, The Swans, The Hous eOf Love, The Sugarcubes (with Bjork) and New Order was the last band to play... I still remember it as it was yesterday! On May 4th, 2019, I saw Peter Hook And The Light at the Montpellier Rockstore (France). The band played 14 New Order Tracks, and after a short break they continued with 14 Joy Division songs... I was a bit annoyed with Peter Hook's voice on certain New Order tracks, but anyway it was a great concert... They were supposed to play in Aix-en-Provence this autumn but the concert has been scheluded for 2021... Hope it will happen then !!!

Love love the lockdown sessions

They keep callin me. Damn right they do.

how the fuck can't hooky be in new order anymore... that bass. you need to release more music hooky

France is listening💪

Hookeys bass was the joy Division...and new order..

Beautiful mixing job! Thanks for the upload, it’s a real boost to the spirits. ✌️🍎🌻

Great to hear this re-working. My fave JD track...found on a bootleg years ago...

This made The Crow soundtrack even better. Awesome tune!!!
