The Sisters Of Mercy - Ringlokschuppen, Bielefeld - 21.04.2006 (Flac)

Very good sound. By the taper notes, he doesn't seems very into the whole Doktor Avalanche thing, all the drums, bass and synth are launched by the Doc's nurse since 1993, it's not quite playback... Anyway, Thanks to him for sharing his recording.

recorded from second row, left side

The "highlight" of this show was surely the power shortage during "Dominion"!
The band had used too much smoke on the stage (one could barely see anything) so that the smoke detection alarm went off and shut down the power circuit of the whole building. It was so obvious that the band were using playback that almost everybody had to grin or laugh...

After 15 minutes of patient waiting the ('playback') show continued. Definitely a TSOM night to remember!

The Sisters Of Mercy - Fenders Ballroom, Long Beach - 30.05.1985 - SBD version (Flac)

One of the more famous concerts from TSOM, various versions exist: a complete audience recording, the video and an incomplete soundboard recording, The first two were already posted here in FLAC and DVD. This one is the incomplete soundboard recording, sourced on the "Floorshow" bootleg CD, wich was one of the first posts I ever did on DCR, but in MP3. Time for an upgrade to FLAC.

I really don't like much this version, because the voice is completely above everything else in the mix, wich is normal for a concert on a small club, but it's quite distracting and doesn't really benefit the songs.

Thanks to Eleskin for sharing his rip on DIME.



Tracklist:

01. A Rock And A Hard Place
02. Floorshow
03. Gimme Shelter
04. Slice
05. Body And Soul
06. Marian
07. No Time To cry

The Sisters Of Mercy - Interview - RockGolf, Radio 2, Belgium - xx.xx.1985 (Flac)

Another interview, again I Think this was shared by Dan at HL. Quite nice, among other small talk,  Eldritcth expressing his wish of marrying Stevie Nicks and stating his reasons.

Sleepchamber's The Sisters Of Mercy Tapes #9 - Powerhouse Ballroom, Birmingham, UK -

Another concert from the Black October Tour, this one is quite special since it was the first time Some Kind Of Stranger was played live. The band didn't played lice this song many times, until the 90's where it became part of the Comfortably Numb medley, but with a completeley diferent musical background. Again Thanks to sleepchamber for sending me the tapes to rip.

Sleepchamber's The Sisters Of Mercy Tapes #8 - Royal Court Theatre, Liverpool - 06.10.1984 (Flac)

Another rip from the tapes sleepchamber sent me. This is the last with this gear, I changed the method of ripping since I wasn't totally satisfied with the end result. Even so it sounds good, but nothing fancy. Comparing with the version cyberbio shared some years ago on DIME it has less tape hiss but it's also less rich on the higher frequencies.
