Looking for a specific FALAA review from Kerrang

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.

Hello everyone ,back in the early to mid eighties I was an impressionable teenage metaller and pre internet Kerrang was my Bible . Two writers Howard Johnson and Dave Dickson occasionally reviewed something a little out of the ordinary and this often piqued my curiosity, especially a band called The Sisters of Mercy. I was intrigued but didn't actually know any of the records. And then as they say ,something changed my life. Dave Dicksons review of First and Last and Always. I recall him waxing lyrical about channeling the spirit of Altamont. At least I think I do ad u haven't read it for 30 years . Dies anyone have a copy they could share?
