Bournbrook Hotel, Selly Oak, Birmingham, England
Due to the poster on the left, we know that - in all likelihood - this gig took place.
Setlist
- unknown -
Support acts were Little Brother, a poet and stand-up comedian from Bradford and From Eden.
For some information on Little Brother, we recommend you check this lovely page on him.
A recording of his show, most likely similar to the one he should have performed here, was
recorded and released on side AA of a vinyl album, side a of which features a performance
involving Jon Langford.
An audio file of Little Brother's tracks as well as views of the record and cover are available here.
Production is credited to Kenny Giles, known for his studio in Bridlington, where The Sisters of Mercy
recorded various demos as well as their 7" singles Alice and Body Electric. The first singles by The March Violets
and Salvation's debut single Girlsoul, all released with Merciful Release, the latter also produced by Andrew Eldritch,
were recorded at KG Studios, too.
Second support act From Eden was actually a Grebo band from Stourbrigde consisting of Clint Mansell,
Adam Mole, Chris Fradgley,
Malcolm Treece and Miles Hunt. More or less recently, a bootleg CD
surfaced featuring various demos from 1983 recorded by From Eden.
Miles Hunt and Malcom Treece left the band and formed The Wonder Stuff. Unofficial wonder stuff fansite
Room512 gives a record of developments in their From Eden / The Wonder Stuff Biography also mentioning
From Eden supporting The Sisters of Mercy in 1982.
The remaining members of From Eden recruited Graham Crab and also Richard March,
changed their name, released an EP and then, in 1986, eventually became Pop Will Eat Itself.
Here's an interview article about the band and their biography at the fansite / forum pweination.com,
noting that From Eden' supported The Sisters of Mercy at Selly Oak and that The Sisters appeared on
the cover of Sounds shortly afterwards.
