Release Notes
- Label: Condor Records
- Catalogue#: unknown
- Format: 12" Vinyl LP
- Released: not before 1988
Remarks
- Released in different editions with either plain yellow, plain red, or plain green labels.
- The back of the cover names Wayne Hussey as a guitar player, though at the time of this gig Ben Gunn
was still in the band. Hussey didn´t join the band before 1984 and made his debut in April the same year.
- Because of the picture on the cover front this bootleg has been banned from some marketplaces.
NOTE:
- The cover art shows part of a photograph shot by Joel-Peter Witkin,
- titled.Gods of Earth & Heaven and released in Los Angeles in 1988.
- This photograph is obviously a daring interpretation of Sandro Botticelli's painting The Birth of Venus
- reformulated in the typical, morbid style of Joel-Peter Witkin, see the two pictures down below...
- For unknown reasons the bootleg cover shows the photograph in a mirror inverted view.
- Another Sisters bootleg that features a photograph by Joel-Peter Witkin as cover art is Lord Of Darkness.
Sources
- The back of the cover states "Live 28.3.83 Paradiso, Amsterdam" as time and place of this concert.
In reality the gig took place on August, 28th, 1983. - Plenty other bootlegs have been created from this soundboard recording.
A list of them can be found here .
