Description

Alongside Joy Division, The Durutti Column were among the first artists signed to Factory Records. Their 1980 debut The Return of The Durutti Column, produced by Martin Hannett, showcased Vini Reilly’s delicate, reverb-soaked guitar work and pioneering use of synthesizers.

The album marked the start of a five-decade career that established the band as one of Manchester’s most quietly influential acts. To celebrate its 45th anniversary, London Records present new editions, freshly remastered from the original tapes.
