First And Last And Always - 2006 Rhino re-release inlay page 14

In summer 1984, i.e. in June and July 1984, The Sisters of Mercy recorded their first studio album

First And Last And Always at Strawberry Recording Studios in Stockport near Manchester.

With them was record producer Dave Allen.

By the end of July 1984, mixes for 18 songs were prepared on ten analogue master reels.


For the Rhino 2006 re-release of First And Last And Always the original sheet

with the list of these master reels was used as artwork for the CD-tray.

See the picture below ...

According to this page in another Wiki

the titles Tones, Spit on Your Grave, Evil Come Evil Go and Down to E.....

refer to known songs and were used as working titles.

In addition, some six further tracks were recorded

which did not refer to the planned album release.

Further Tracks


Apart from the songs listed above, further tracks were recorded

but not used for the actual First And Last And Always album release.

Some of them were elaborated later for official Ghost Dance and The Mission records.

More information on this can be found here in this Wiki...

The tracks as they were have of course been eternalized on various bootlegs

such as Victims Of Circumstance 7" or Rare Obscurites.
