Teachers only

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.

Is there a cover-version of "Teachers" by Leonhard Cohen beside the medley-studio-version "Teachers/Adrenochrome" from the Floorshow EP and the early-live-medley-versions?

AFAIK it was only ever done as part of the Teachers/Adrenochrome medley. If you find Teachers on its own, it's likely to have been truncated.

It is on a bootleg called 'Ultra Rare Trax', but as Markfiend points out, it is just cut off, and the second track is, unsurprisingly, Adrenochrome. So they just cut the medley in half and thus made it two separate songs.

IZ.

Oh yeah I forgot that. :lol:

But Teachers is still part of a medley (albeit a different one) these days.
