Jon Langford
From SistersWiki.org - The Sisters Of Mercy Fan Wiki
Jon Langford was originally a founding member and the drummer of the Leeds-based band The Mekons,
who were good friend with The Sisters of Mercy. So, Jon Langford stepped in as a bass player for a few live gigs
in 1981 until The Sisters found Craig Adams.
In addition, The Mekons are featured together with The Sisters of Mercy and various other bands from the area
on the 1985 compilation They Shall Not Pass, which was dedicated to the striking miners and their families.
It is also a rumour of the old times that one of The Mekons lyrics does refer to Andrew Eldritch.
