Legendary 1977 Project That United THE STOOGES’ RON ASHETON and JIMMY RECCA with MC5 Drummer DENNIS THOMPSON Gets Deluxe Reissue!
29th August 2023Years before a certain trio of British post-punkers who had recently lost their lead vocalist became New Order, there was THE New Order, a scorching blast of underground proto-punk that united the talents of Stooges guitarist Ron Asheton, Stooges bassist Jimmy Recca and MC5 drummer Dennis Thompson. The band released its debut album in 1977 and would take another 10 years to complete their follow-up before calling it a day. They were the quintessential shooting star of a band, burning bright, burning fast and then burning out.
Now The New Order’s debut album is being given a rocket-fueled deluxe edition reissue that features a brand new mix and master of the entire album including the underground classic “Rock ‘n’ Roll Soldiers,” which has been covered by The Hitmen and The Hellacopters, as well as special bonus material! In addition, the new version features informative liner notes by Asheton himself as well as vintage photos. If you missed this classic the first time around now’s your chance to jump on board!
