An audience recording of the starting gig at The Manhattan, Bradford of The Sisters of Mercy's UK Spring Tour in 1983.

For a long time, this concert was believed to have taken place a day earlier, which is why almost all audience recording tapes and bootlegs traded at the time came with the wrong date. On top of that, these recordings - including the Rough Diamonds vinyl bootleg - were incomplete. The Sisters performance of Body Electric on that day is available only in the present recording. And even here it is lacking a few seconds at the end. So possibly, this recording is the original one on which all later bootlegs and trades are based, omitting Body Electric as it was not a perfect take.
