yay goth, love the original sisters, they went off the boil a bit later on, but who doesn't? anyone else heard creaming jesus's version of temple of love, very funny, might and try and send it to you when a) i move and unpack my cd's, and b) someone shows me how to do it, bit of a luddite i'm afraid

A.J. - you can never have too much goth, though I like the later stuff too. Might do a few goth-themed posts later.

Bynar -YES PLEASE!!

Thanks, Ed

Bynar, can you get in touch with me too please, at 'Teenage Kicks' (Ed's got me linked), as my recordings of this wonderful stuff are a bit naff?

Hi Steve,

I hope you got my e-mail. If anybody wants The Sisters of Mercy - Kid Jensen Session (March 10, 1983) let me know. Here's the tracklist:

Tracks 1-4 come from the 2CD bootleg, Kamasutra.

1. Jolene
2. Heartland
3. Burn
4. Valentine

Track 5 comes from the single disc bootleg CD, Black Planet. It is far superior to the other source, and I would really like to hear the rest of the session in the same quality!

5. Jolene


Cheers,

Bynar
