Subject: Info wanted on groups/Bill Nelson
Can anyone give me information on the following groups? Discography, history, members, etc. would be nice. Section 25 A Certain Ratio League of Nations Sad Lovers and Giants I know that the first two are on the Factory label. I have Section 25's `From the Hip' but know nothing else about them. I just happened upon this record when I was flipping through some records: the cover was immediately recognizable as a Factory product, similar in many ways to the `Power, Corruption and Lies' cover, so I picked it up. A friend played some songs from the last two groups, but he had them on a tape that a friend in Quebec made for him, so he didn't know anything about them. They both sort of sounded like Joy Division and early New Order. I saw A Certain Ratio when they opened for New Order last tour. They had a much different sound, but I liked it.

Is any other Bill Nelson stuff (including Be-bop Deluxe) on CD?
