ECHO

From Sisters wiki dot org - The Sisters Of Mercy Wiki Pages

A 2CD live bootleg, so to say echoing a recording from The Sisters of Mercy in their 1984/5 line-up

with another live recording from The Sisters of Mercy as they were in 1991.

Release Notes

• Label: Baby Capone Records

• Catalog#: BC019/2

• Format: 2 x CD

• Released: unknown

Remarks

• Most song titles are lacking the upper case as were common for headlines.

• The back cover states: All songs written and arranged by Eldritch - Marx - Adams - Hussey except*
  However, these credits are in parts wrong and/or incomplete.
  Floorshow, for example, is credited to a person called Jennings (whoever that might be, maybe a joke from the editors). Regards disc one, Body And Soul is credited to Eldritch, for disc two it is attributed to Eldritch / Hussey which not true. First And Last And Always is not only listed wrongly as First, last, always but also credited to Gary Marx neglecting the fact that Andrew Eldritch wrote the lyrics to this song. And plenty more such stuff.
  For reliable credits, please visit the according pages for the individual songs in this Wiki.
  

• The cover photo shows Andrew Eldritch with Patricia Morrison.
  This is also misleading, because the latter had been a member of the band only from 1986 - 1989.
