march violets song info?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

face of a dragonfly was inscribed on the run out of (I think) Grooving in green .

I also have a video from Milan25/5/85 with just Cleo on vocals .
tracklist:
leave in silence
silver lining
walk into the sun
turn to the sky
face of the dragonfly
love in a nightmare
gold/deep
snakedance
grooving in green

i'll have a look round some other stuff & see if I can help you :)

They're all live tracks that were never committed to vinyl. (I'm not sure if Kill The Delight was on vinyl. That song is more familiar to me than the others which I've only heard on dodgy boots, so it may be on vinyl. Dunno though.)
