Joy Division The Complete BBC Recordings is a collection of the two Peel Sessions recorded by Joy Division, two songs from the BBC Television programme Something Else and a live interview. It was released in 2000. The album was re-released as "Before and After – The BBC Sessions" in 2004, the Joy Division tracks included were the same, but it also contained a New Order album. The entire track listing of the album was later released as the second disc of The Best of Joy Division in 2008.

Reception

Select gave the album a five out of five rating.[2] Select praised songs that were not included into Joy Division's studio albums such as "Exercise One" and "Sound of Music", referring to them as "about as profound as pop music can be".[2]
