Blue Monday

~ Release by New Order (see all versions of this release, 6 available)

Annotation

The biggest-selling 12" of all time. The sleeve, designed by Peter Saville, resembled a floppy disc, with various sections cut from the cardboard. Due to the high cost of manufacture, Factory Records apparently made a loss on every copy sold.
