A 12" vinyl bootleg, recorded live during the Trans-Europe Excess Tour in 1983.
At that time, a few months before the acutal release of the Temple Of Love single,
The Sisters Of Mercy would occasionally perform this song during their gigs, though not at every
concert. Relatively soon after the official release, however, and even in the same year, they stopped
playing it at all, and Temple Of Love was not heard live for a long time.
The song would become a regular part of their setlist again only with Tour Thing I in the year 1990.
To include a live version of a then unreleased song into a bootleg is an enormous enhancement
for the according product as examples like The Lights Shine Clear Through The Sodium Haze,
Through The Years, Tender Mercies, Possession or the ECHOES VOL 1 7" single clearly confirm.
All these bootlegs were much sought-after straight from the day of their release.
While Side B of this LP comes with an extremly short tracklist of only two songs and an almost
disappointing running time, the A-side - in conclusion - offers a very interesting combination of
songs, particularly due to the presence of the aforementioned Temple Of Love track.
