For me this has stood the test of time. I still could make a solid stance as to why this is GREAT and why the sisters are on the same mental shelf as many other greats from the 1950s up. CLASSIC
They shaped my youth at the Thunderdome Montreal.
I remember it like it was yesterday. Rise and reverberate!
😘🙏🧛♂️☝️
40 years on and it still sounds fucking banging !!!!
I keep playing these songs over and over.
Remember taping (!!! yup) this off that same John Peel Show, and being totally blown away. They weren't very well-known back in '82, but look what happened Still a great listen after all these decades...
Man alive, this version of "Floorshow" is effin' spectacular!
Ulisse P most surely the best ever
Floorshow. A train through the night. Cities passing by. Only memories remain
This is just perfect from start to finish. Floorshow is an astonishing flood of distortion and imagery.
That magic pixie dust of the Peel show.So many great sessions....
There was no one like him before and will probably never be…
Still got this on tape. Nothing to play it on mind...
the guitar on Alice is brilliant
Yea !
agree...there are also many surprise tweaks/notes . that stray bass sound and false beginning is one right off the top.
RISE AND REVERBERATE - AND THANKS FOR EVERYTHING JP, LEGEND
Peel sessions were always magic, this was before my time though, i started listening Peel in 85 maybe still good times. The fact alone i got BFBS on my radio and i could record it on tape made me feel glorious.
Totally brilliant. John Peel is God.
Love this band! Love their sound long live the sister's!
Alice takes me back to the Camden Palace. Marvellous
Excellent....THE sound of the sisters.
Another band I saw early on at Danceteria NYC. 20 people in attendance to start. 5 people remained towards the end. The rest went upstairs or on the roof to dance.
Alice is still a great song... Floorshow a lightning!
old SoM is a true mental drill
Like finding a hidden dreamland treasure,
After searching throughout that midnight's sun,
A silver ice pick is thrust betwixt your temples,
just under the pillow that once rested your head ~
Nice verse, is it your original composition? A web search doesn't find it except here.
I was very lucky bought their whole discography on vinyl in the early naughties fo 10 quid or so. Totally agree stands up even today amazing sound's ❤❤❤
Very good!!!
I didn't know what strobe lights and dry ice were until a gig they did in 1985.
85 you Saw them late then 3 years after I first saw them live
Uhhh
@@ladyb2423 ha ha haaa! That was just greayt☆ ! Oh god, i just cant stop laughing!
Theatre of Hat!😘🧛♂️☝️
Still gives me goosebumps♾

I will always be that Death Rocker kid... Now ancient.. those eyes looking back at me are Immortal..
Cheers from Huntington Beach CA..

My friend was going to RADA in London, and when she came back to the USA she had a 1982 bootleg of TSOM. Not this one, but apparently, they were/are the most bootlegged band ever! Especially since the group ceased recording activity in 1993, when they went on strike against Time Warner, which they accused of incompetence and withholding royalties. Although Time Warner released them from their contract in 1997, they have not signed to another label, despite showcasing numerous new songs in their live sets.
Listening to 'Good Things', you realise Eldritch revisted some of the same themes (and put a few of the lyrics to use) five years later for 'Dominion' and 'This Corrosion'.
Thanks for the great download, I got into the Sisters late, on the 2nd wave of 'British Goth' in 1989-/'91 so love coming across the earlier stuff. Anybody know of any 1987 Floodland gigs, with Patricia? I'd be greatful if they did, and shared it.
Lee, The Sisters didn't play any live gigs to promote the Floodland era.
Infact, between June 1985 & November 1990, they didn't play a single gig...almost 5.5 years!
This whole album is just epic
Thank you
Watched them in May of 1990 in Belgrade. 27 years past like 27 days.
kell dockham I felt the same when they played Dublin.
Totally different band by then I first saw them live 82 by 85 they were over as a great band
Ben gunn guitar
I was at the first (and only) York Rock Festival in 1984 because of this session. Weather was terrible! A poor quality vid of their set at that Fest is on uTube.
Blown away. Remember my 80s vinyl heap. Nininenineineineineinesixtynine . Almost made shit my pants.
Went to a gig three years ago. Big mistake... Early stuff with Gary Marx.
The opposite. Gary blew fumes into the furnace. Brilliant

🖤
I saw them a couple times; once on tour with Public Enemy.
When they were still good I remember seeing them few times in London in 1982 Inc supporting UK Decay, low on bill at Lyceum 83 when Sex Gang Children headlined etc.
Honoure the Fire yes a narrow window in Los Angeles, indeed.
Fab. Suicide meet psychedelic furs meet bahaus meet joy Division. Love it
fanx......xxx
That cheesey drum machine
Maybe they picked up the idea from Suicide. I seem to recall Andrew started out as a drummer -- I like to think the drum machine is maybe his way of saying drummers aren't so important.
Up! ;D Anna&Tinja
The Stooges influence/covers are everywhere.
+Doodle your exam paper We used to play "I Wanna Be Your Dog" live.

VA??????????
Lägg ned. Försvinn.
fuck yes!bad ass in concert
I've never heard them play "1969" before.
+Larz Gustafsson same
It's on the Alice EP with Floorshow & Phantom :) Shit hot cover version it is too
Iggy cover
Jeez, that drum machine kills it immediately
You sort of missed the train then
@@jonsessions2121 That train is still rolling, but sadly too many “artists” today keep derailing. They knew how to use them back then. Take the genius of Tears For Fears on their 1st record. I know you get t.
biiiiig
Thanks for this. Fuckin' blinder.
Is it me or does U2s Desire sound just like 1969. Lol Did U2 blatantly rip the Sisters off or is this some traditional blues riff that has been round for years before this? Anyway thanks for posting.
1969 is originally by the Stooges, and it's an endlessly recycled riff.
Weldon Hunter got it. Thanks for the info!
oldi but goldie lee run

Stooges + Suicide
Have you read Andrew's sleeve notes to Some Girls Wander By Mistake?
"Gary Marx and I knew each other from the F Club. He was a big fan of The Fall. I was a big fan of Père Ubu, and we both loved The Stooges. Everybody loved The Stooges. Gary had no money and no equipment, but he wanted to hear himself on the radio. So we made a record with no money and no equipment, and we heard it on the radio. Pressed a thousand copies (thanks to Red Rhino in York, whose credit we used at the plant), sold a few. Even at the time, it was hard to get and even harder to listen to. That should have been the end of it, but...
We hooked up with Craig Adams, probably because he lived above the chemist too. He was a big fan of Hawkwind and Motorhead, and he had this bass sound which suddenly defined The Sisters - along with the drum machine, which we bought because we all loved Suicide. Everybody loved Suicide. The drum machine became Dr. Avalanche. Gary became a guitar player, and I became the singer, almost by default."

"Everybody loved the Stooges."

1969 and Floorshow, could have been left out, or replaced with Teachers and Adrenochrome. Fluff.
