Revision as of 13:45, 6 September 2016

Recorded Live at the Brixton Academy, London, UK on June 29th, 1983

with the classic early Sisters line-up shortly before release of the Temple Of Love / Heartland single in October 1983.

Issued in basically four known editions. The first edition comes with a variety of coloured copy sheets of the same motive

fixed with four pieces of adhesive tape to the otherwise white custom covers. The drawing in these sheets shows the painting

Two Girls by Bulgarian expressionist painter Jules Pascin, who was also known as "The Prince of Montparnasse".

Spelling Mistakes

  • Burn is misspelled as "Bone".
  • Some of the green/black (second) editions omit Burn completely from the track list
    or have the song retroactively filled into the track list by hand.
  • On the back cover of the third edition only Burn is still wrong.

Sleeve Notes - Third Edition

  • Recorded by the Magician People
  • Mixed in Underground Studios, London
  • CP by Situation Zero
  • The cover states "London at the Brixton Ace 19.2.1983"
as the recording date. This is an error.




The Different Editions In Detail

Live At Brixton - a blue A4 xerox cover version of the first edition without black frame around the central drawing

First Edition

  • The first edition is available with xeroxed coloured cover sheets
    in white, blue, yellow, orange, red and beige tone.
  • Certain varieties exist which differ in that some of the xeroxes are A4 in size,
    filling only part of the cover front (as in the picture here on the right),
    while others are large enough to cover the front almost in full,
    (see all the pictures on top of this page).
  • Furthermore the smaller A4 xeroxes do not have that half-page high black frame
    around the central drawing and list the tracks underneath instead of on the left and right side higher up.
  • The backside of all covers of the first release are plain white.
  • The vinyls are mostly multicoloured in white, red, blue, yellow. Some are white, yellow, blue, green
    or clear, yellow, blue, green. But there are other mixtures, too. And a few black copies do exist as well.
    Please see the large collection of pictures down below ...
  • Almost all vinyls have plain white labels, sometimes with handwritten notes on them.
    There are exceptions, though.



Live At Brixton Ace - Unique b/w-cover with multicoloured vinyl

Second Edition


  • The second edition has a green/black cover sheet and comes with blue or clear blue vinyl.
  • The tracks are listed on the front cover while the back of the cover is
    - as far as we gathered - the same as the one of the third edition.
  • Please see the picture up right and those at the bottom of this page.


Third Edition


  • The vinyls are either clear darkblue or clear transparent.
  • The edition is allegedly limited to 500 copies.


  • Apart from all these, an unreleased and unique b/w cover with a multicoloured vinyl has
    surfaced recently. The A4 b/w-picture featured on the cover reminds of an actress in a
    movie scene. The item was handed over to one of our collectors directly by the manufacturer.
    You see a picture of it here on the left.




Live At Brixton Ace - Further Edition (1988/89)

Further Editions


  • A following repress from Germany has an orange A4 cover sheet.
  • According to our information, this one was released around 1988/89.
  • The vinyls are black with yellow/black labels.


Live At Brixton - Further Version (Label 1)
Live At Brixton - Further Version (Label 2)
