Release Notes

  • Label: Arkain Filloux
  • Catalogue#:
  • Format: 12" vinyl LP
  • Released: 2014 / 2016 (Belgium)
  • Run-outs: Side A/Side B



Remarks

  • This bootleg was released in three
limited versions, the first two in 2014
and a repress in 2016.
  • A white-label test pressing
does exist as well.



Gimme Shelter - 1st edition with marbled vinyl (overview)
  • The front cover art consists of a composition of a square image of centred hand-drawn like lines.
The picture reminds of the cover art of the Temple Of Love single combined with The Sisters of Mercy's
old head-and-star logo, which overlaps the lines as a negative layer. The vanishing point of the lines is
positioned in the eye of the logo.
  • The back cover art has the song titles horizontally shifted from left to right and back and imbedded
into the same sort of lines as the cover front, though here the lines are drawn in parallel.
  • Back cover notes:
As a headline: BBC SESSIONS
and on the bottom:
ARKAIN FILLOUX
DREVE OLYMPIC 15 · 1070 ANDERLECHT
BRUXELLES BELGIQUE
  • Although, allegedly manufactured in Belgium all issues were initially delivered from the US.
  • The labels give information on the band name - Sisters of Mercy - omitting the article,
the album title and the track list as well as record side marks and running speed (33 ⅓ rpm).
Remarkably, all this info is not surrounded by the usual publishing infor and copyright wanrnings
but merely by a black printed circular line
Compare some representative sound files of this album with those from other bootlegs here on this site.
