RE-UPLOAD: The Sisters Of Mercy - The Neon Dream - Reading Festival, Reading, UK - 25.08.1991 (Flac)

 

I noticed After re-uploading the other Reading 1991 bootleg, ir makes sense to reupload this one also, that way the concert is complete, since this one has the initial missing track on the other but misses the encores.

RE-UPLOAD: The Sisters Of Mercy - Suffer In Vain (Flac)

Lineage: Bootleg Silver CD -> TLH -> Flac (level 6)

Notes:

Bootleg with songs from 2 concerts of 1991. Tracks 1 to 9, 11 to 13 are from Citi Club, Boston, USA - 29 March 1991, tracks 10 and 14 are from Popular Creek Music Theater, Chicago, USA - 12 July 1991.

For a long time this silver bootleg has been labeled as Popular Creek Music Theater, Chicago, USA - 12 July 1991, probably because of the inclusion of Stop Draggin' my Heart around, wich was only played in this concert during 1991, a cappella.

The reason of this improvisational moment from Andrew Eldritch is the crash of Doktor Avalanche during Body and Soul (wich was cut halfway). A lot of fans of the band had already noted that Body and Soul is complete in this bootleg, so at least that song wasn't from the Chicago concert.

Since I'm not an expert on the post 1985 TSOM, I asked the assistance of Heartland Forum Meth to try to figure out wich songs where from wich concert. He managed to solve the puzzle and also noted that the songs from the Chicago concert don't seem to be from the same source as the complete recording of that concert that is in ciculation. So maybe a second complete source of this concert exist.

Huge THANK YOU to Meth for helping figuring out the venues of the songs.

Tracklist:

01. First and Last and Always - (Boston 29-3-91)
02. Lucretia my Reflection - (Boston 29-3-91)
03. Body and Soul - (Boston 29-3-91)

A very special post, the Sisters first concert in Portugal and the first one I saw. It took me a long time to get it, but now it's here. It was such a long time ago that I really only remember, apart from the overall sensation of liking it a lot, arriving at the venue at the end of "First and Last and Always", even if it was still five minutes until the scheduled time... Enjoy it!

The Sisters Of Mercy - Sportpaleis, Gent, Belgium - 16.05.1991 (Flac)

NOTE: By some stupid reason, the photos that were originally on the fileset are missing from the RAR file... To make up for that, I treated them in Photoshop (they're quite better now), and posted them in full resolution, please copy them to the recording folder after downloading.

Thanks to the original uploader.

Original Info File:

Tape received in my trading period from end 80's until mid 90's.

As shown on concert ticket I've included, this concert should have taken place on
15th November 1990 in Deinze, Het Brielpoort (an awful hall where acoustic does not exist...).
The concert was eventually cancelled and tickets remained valid. The new date was later
announced as 16th May 1991 and fortunately location was changed to Gent, Sportpaleis.

This is the only gig I saw in this venue and it was really OK regarding the sound but also the
configuration. People could access either the playground area (standing) or the balconeys (sitting),
but most insteresting was that between both, there was a velodrome. During "Vision Thing", Andrew
disappeared off the stage and started running, singing all along the velodrome with people going mad
and trying to approach the barriers along the velodrome where Andrew was standing. I could take
a picture of this particular moment and this is also included in the post, along with some others.
Be indulgent regarding the quality as this was taken with my old pocket cam.
 

Unknown recording equipment and it should be a lowgen copy.

Very good sound quality and I processed a slight hiss reduction + some fade in / out (several tape
or recording flips)

RE-UPLOAD: The Sisters Of Mercy - Leeds Polytechnic, Leeds, UK - 17.02.1991 (Flac)

Another of Egg_Crisis master recording, a huge Thank You to him for his generosity. Excellent sound.

Cassette(Aud, Master, TDK SF90's, Recorded on Sony Recording Walkman with T-shaped external mic[Eurochannels EMC3630]) > wav > Soundforge(even up L+R chans) > CDWave > split on sector boundaries > flac(6)

I don't do the CD1 / CD2 thing. If you're burning it on 2cd's just use your common sense. (Hint: Put the encores on CD2). :)

Recorded from the side balcony, approx halfway along.

Tape flip(auto-reverse) during Marian, less than a second missed, the missing piece replaced with another piece from later in the song.

The second of the two 10th Anniversary gigs.

Before Ribbons, "Here's another song about... sex."
Before Marian, "Not even close."
Before This Corrosion, (something in German)
As Flood II starts, (sounds like "That's as maybe" but it might be something in German?)
Before Jolene, "Who wasn't here yesterday?... (*he raises his shades to show his eyes*) ...nearly human!"
After 1969, "Thank you... ...(something in German??)..."

And is that Elgar's Cello Concerto playing from the PA at the end? I assume it is as Eldritch once named it as one of his favourite pieces of music.

I copied the tape for a few people back in the day, but don't know if it's currently circulating.

Now this is a pleasant gift from Egg_Crisis to all TSOM fans. Huge Thanks!

I don't do the CD1 / CD2 thing. If you're burning it on 2cd's just use your common sense. (Hint: Put the encores on CD2). :)

Recorded from the balcony at the back, in the centre.
Tape flip(auto-reverse) during This Corrosion, less than a second missed, the missing "hey now now" replaced with another "hey now now" from a moment earlier to patch up the missing piece.

The first of the two 10th Anniversary gigs.

Before Lucretia, "Thanks for coming."
Before Amphetamine Logic, "Now there's a funny thing".
Before Burn, drum machine failure, "I hope you all found somewhere to stay tonight... (audience sings 'Let's all laugh at Eldritch') ... Oh no."
Before Gimme Shelter, "I remember when this stage was big".
As Flood II starts, "Is my nose still bleeding?".
Before Vision Thing, "And while we're on the subject..."

Includes the "3rd encore", where after more audience cheering Eldritch came back onstage and everyone expected to get another encore, but he just said "thankyou" then left.

I copied the tape for a few people back in the day, but don't know if it's currently circulating.
I downloaded a bootleg called "Return to Arkham" for comparison and quality-wise it's about the same. Although of the 2 songs I checked, both had had the between song parts tampered with, one song had one of Eldritch's remarks removed ("now here's a funny thing"), and another had a "thankyou" added where there hadn't been one (right before the drum machine failure).  I didn't check any more after that and binned it.
