Tidal Wave #1, 1980

I've noted this as issue 1 though I think it is in fact another of those one-off affairs. Not that it being a stand alone diminshes its worth - particularly in terms of the most welcome interviews within its covers. Tidal Wave was a sole effort by Terri, with "thanx [to] Esther for the endless cups of tea and the wonderfulness". The fanzine is dedicated to Ian Curtis and in 2 separate wee articles Terri laments Ian's passing. As noted, there's an excellent selection of interviews with The Tea Set, A Certain Ratio, Young Marble Giants, and The Teardrop Explodes. A live review of Joy Division and A Certain Ratio at the Moonlight Club. The Tidal Wave playlist. TW is yet another Better Badges production. Good stuff!
