featuring The Sisters of Mercy's concert of February 19th, 1983 at Brixton Ace


Recording Notes (Audience Recording)

  • Taper: - unknown -
  • Catalogue#: none
  • Format: TDK D60 Cassette or data (FLACs)
  • Lineage of data version:
TDK D60 Cassette --> Eltax Tape Deck --> wav

  • Released: most likely in the late 1980s


Remarks (Cassette)

  • Total Running Time: 42:03 min.

which has been corrected by the buyer.
