Stephen Morris is an English musician, best known for his work with New Order and Joy Division.
A unique and thoughtful musical memoir
*Observer*
Gritty coming-of-age story . . . plenty of anecdotes to keep us
hooked, and his memories of Joy Division's Ian Curtis are
poignant
*Daily Mirror*
Record Play Pause tells a familiar story . . . but Morris brings a
freshness to it
*Glasgow Herald*
Self-deprecating, unembittered and happy to occupy the role of
technically-minded synergist, Morris is a frank and humorous
narrator uninterested in grudges . . . Hugely mirthful in northern
English ways, Stephen recalls his youth with frustration and
fondness . . . Familiar ground and personalities are (inevitably)
revisited, but the author's dry wit ensures a singular perspective
and winning detail . . . Arguably the most human of the Joy
Division memoirs, Record Play Pause shows that even after 40 years
there are still new ways to engage with and illuminate this most
analysed of groups
*Mojo*
