Revision as of 01:35, 29 May 2017

This bootleg was first released as Live In Hull 1983 (left) and then reissued as A Fire In The Hull (centre & right). It is very obvious, that the first issue was the prototype for the second one.

The record contains a soundboard recording from the last gig of The Sisters of Mercy's UK Spring Tour 1983 in Hull, PLUS further two songs from the according soundcheck.

The peculiarity of this bootleg - aside from the really good sound quality of the recording - is that a lot of songs were played out of tune and sometimes even messed up.
With the exception of Doktor Avalanche, all members of the band are mistaken at times during the performance. Nowadays, it's impossible to tell why this happened.
Possibly, the fact that this was the final concert of the tour and that it took place in the hometown of Gary Marx gave rise to a certain lack of concentration.
Anyway, the audience were fully enjoying the gig and so the listener should be pleased with this bootleg as well.

Editions

Life In Hull 1983 - First Edition (overview)
A Fire In The Hull - Second Edition
with red vinyl (overview)
  • The first edition is a very rare item as it was strictly limited to 10 hand-numbered copies.
  • These records come in a generic white cover with a white A4 xerox sheet glued to the cover front
    that gives all the track and bootleg information, while the cover back is plain white.
  • Additional cover notes on this edition: LIMITED EDITION ##/10
  • These ten records were pressed on black vinyl with plain white labels.
On one side of these labels, "Sisters Hull ##/10" is handwriten in black ink
and "2 July 2015" - obviously the release date - is stamped, also in black ink.


  • The second edition comes with a proper cover as shown in the images above and below.
  • Additional back cover notes on this edition:
RECORDED ON THE SOM MOBILE
PRODUCED BY ROUGH MOUSE
SPECIAL THANKS TO LG
  • This edition was pressed on a variety of different vinyl colours, single-coloured and multi-coloured.
  • The multi-coloured splattered vinyls are also limited to very low numbers of copies.
Colour combinations seen so far are black and white splattered, black and green splattered,
black and yellow splattered and black, white, green and yellow splattered, all of which on clear vinyl.
According to information @Discogs, there are only 8 copies of each colour combination.
However, when these item were sold on eBay, the seller claimed that only 3 copies of each would exist,
with the exception of the black, white, green and yellow splattered clear vinyl, of which there were only
a single 1 (= a total of 10 multi-coloured splattered vinyls). Anyway, these copies are not numbered.
  • The labels are black with a dark red lettering and the old head and star logo.
They specify the bands name, the album title, the song titles and the side of the record.
  • The single-coloured vinyls usually come with a round sticker in the top right corner
saying for example: "LIMITED EDITION <RED> VINYL".
Single-coloured vinlys surfaced so far were clear, orange, red and white.
4-LP sets, consisting of a collection of all four single-coloured vinyls are sold as well.
Despite the limited-edition sticker on the cover front, these copies are not numbered.
