I was wondering if anybody knows if a of a recordings of the Leeds 1996 gig exists?

I came across a recording on and FTP site, listened to it and I can't class it as an obvious fake.

Tracklisting is as follows:
01. sisters of mercy - kiss the carpet (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
02. sisters of mercy - ribbons (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
03. sisters of mercy - amphetamine logic (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
04. sisters of mercy - alice (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
05. sisters of mercy - on the wire (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
06. sisters of mercy - come together (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
07. sisters of mercy - first & last & always (leeds , 19.6.`.mp3
08. sisters of mercy - train _ detonation boulevard (leeds ,.mp3
09. sisters of mercy - giving ground (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
10. sisters of mercy - flood 2 (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
11. sisters of mercy - temple of love (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
12. sisters of mercy - this corrosion (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
13. sisters of mercy - vision thing (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3
14. sisters of mercy - jolene (leeds , 19.6.`96).mp3

Any comments on it?

It's a good recording, Von's voice is clear. I can't remember any comments made between songs though.

It's 1996 - Live in Offenbach. The CD has a few demos after the gig, I think it was made by the same people that made SBWBM (white).

The same ftp also has a folder for Munchen 96, but it's fake too.

14. sisters of mercy - sister ray (münchen`96).mp3

If only...

Almost as disappointing as the file I once downloaded from Kazaa called Sisters of Mercy - New Album :(

oh well, at least I didn't have to buy the boot before I found out it was a fake.

Those FTP sites are dodgy. I'd never touch 'em. honest. :innocent: :innocent: :innocent:

Haha, I've seen that on winmx - "Sisters of Mercy - Exit (new album!_ALBW)"

I downloaded the first few minutes and realised it wasn't them (I didn't expect it to be, but I had to check, just in case). I kept the first few hundred K of the file and renamed it to "Sisters of Mercy - Exit (new album!_ALBW) IT'S NOT THE SISTERS - DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME" in the hope I'd stop some silly sod downloading it, but still people download that file from me!!! Insane!
