live cd / bootleg advice needed

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.

I have quite a few shows etc from the earlier days up to 85 . After that all I have is Nottingham 18/02/01 and London Forum 13 feb 98 .
What I`d like to look for is the best one from each era so that I have a good variety in sets/sound & also any "special" ones I should look for ?

If you fellas` could give me some advice on which ones are the better ones I`d be very grateful .

thanks guys

toronto docks 1999 is a good one.

the london forum (day 2) - 6th sept 2000 is really good.

the york birthday gig from 2001 is nice but there are technically better recordings from later that tour...

not sure about the 91-98 gigs - i have quite a few that are cool, but they arent amongst the ones i listen to the most :sad:

I like the Sister Ray medley in Rendsberg'97, as it's fun trying to identify all the song lyrics included in it.
