Alice Dirty Funker Mixes - 12" Cover

Although this bootleg was released in the 2000s, the old head-and-star logo

and the familiar Caslon Antique font were used. The cover, the typical black

inner sleeve, the labels, all of this looks very similar to an official/promotional

The Sisters Of Mercy release.

This, added by the fact that the bootleg was released in two formats, caused quite a frenzy

when the bootleg surfaced, especially as it was soon officially sold in common record shops.

Anyway, the mix featured here is said to be a VERY good one and that it

should be heard as it features a dance-oriented side to an early Sisters recording.
