Description
Offered here is the 1988 Factory Records reissue of New Order’s groundbreaking hit “Blue Monday.” Originally released in 1983, Blue Monday remains the best-selling 12” single of all time — and this 1988 remix gives the legendary track a new edge with Quincy Jones’s slick late-’80s production.
The record features the stunning Peter Saville artwork — a minimalist concentric circle design that’s as collectible as the music itself. This edition is instantly recognizable and remains a centerpiece for any synthpop or Factory Records collector.
