Back Cover

A bootleg from one of the very last shows of The Sisters of Mercy in their First And Last And Always line-up,

when Gary Marx had already left the band.

The bootleg was originally released on vinyl and cd by the famous The Swingin' Pig Records bootleg label.

A year later, a Polish cassette bootleg of similar content has surfaced in online auctions.

Remarks

• The concert is incomplete.

First And Last And Always, Walk Away, Emma and Amphetamine Logic are missing.

• For some weird reason most of the tracks don't appear in the real order they were played.

Alice for instance was originally played between Floorshow and Gimme Shelter.

This is corrected on the cassette version, but the overall order is still wrong

for the tracks on side A were the last four songs at the gig.

• The vinyl version has tracks 1 - 4 on side A and tracks 5 - 7 on side B.

The same accounts for the cassette.

• Total Duration: 31:44 min.

There are minor differences in track times on the cassette.

• As usual the song credits are also mixed up, Floorshow is credited to some guy called "Jennings".

Source

• Recorded live on 30th of May 1985 at Fenders Ballroom, Long Beach, CA, USA
