Joe Magee's website is a veritable treasure trove which contains details of "works commissioned in Manchester 1991-1998" including the Fac 2.09 'Walks on Water' poster for Factory Too.

Magee also designed the sleeve for Fac 2.05 'Wasted' by Factory Too band Hopper.

There are plenty of other diversions including a complete portfolio of his work for many and varied clients including the Guardian, the New York Times, Pentagram, BBC and MIT.

Thanks to Mike for spotting.

Here is a selection of Factory bands spanning 3 decades that recorded Peel Sessions: Joy Division, New Order, OMD, Happy Mondays, Section 25, The Wake, Crispy Ambulance and Hopper.

The Hopper line-up / biography and discography have all been updated and a few glitches corrected for good measure (Ridiculous Day is now not quite so ridiculous). Check out their old touring schedule, setlists and find out what Rachel has been up to since Hopper.
