Artefact

Fanzine
Distractions, Joy Division, The Hamsters, Manchester Musicians Collective
1979

Issue ten of City Fun, from 1980. The Distractions are the 'band du jour' of the City Fun editorial set, but their 'print everything we receive' policy means there are no fewer than five reviews of Joy Division, Foreign Press and Teardrop Explodes at The Russell Club. Amongst the many other pearls of wisdom there is a review of the Zoo and Factory Label Day in some field outside Leigh, featuring The Teardrop Explodes, Orchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark, Echo and The Bunnymen, A Certain Ratio, The Distractions and Joy Division.

A4, ten double-sided pages.
