Alice (Dirty Funker Mixes)
Although this bootleg was released in the 2000s, the old head-and-star logo
and the familiar Caslon Antique font were used. The cover, the typical black
inner sleeve, the labels, all of this looks very similar to an official/promotional
The Sisters Of Mercy release.
This, added by the fact that the bootleg was released in two formats, caused quite a frenzy
when the bootleg surfaced, especially as it was soon officially sold in common record shops.
Anyway, the mix featured here is said to be a VERY good one and that it
should be heard as it features a dance-oriented side to an early Sisters recording.
