Do you remember Fireworks 7" sort of gatefold sleeve
Another Siouxsie Work of Art.
What a track.Energy still burning, twisting,turning,burning

I only had the 12 inch.
You mentioned the 12 inch Isreal, didn't know there was one.
I had the Creatures Wild Things EP gatefold with Siouxsie & Budgie naked in the shower.
Asked my mum to get it first day it came out as it was limited edition and she worked near to the record shop.
She wasn't too pleased with the cover lol

Pogo'ing to Carcass and Helter Skelter at the Mayflower club are the closest I have ever come to dancing ; )

ah, the mayflower.
some nights in there.

our paths must've crossed but never quite aligned.

It was no floppy disc!

Night Shift. What an absolutely belting tune that was on record and live.

something i'd forgotten suddenly came back to mind today,
i'm sure of it...

at the gigs,
when she sang "fuck the mothers kill the others"
a huge grin/smile momentarily appeared on the face of robert smith.
like there was some in-joke going on.

In the spotlight? Losing your religion ?

Well that was a disappointing end to a great day!
Half way through Iggy Pop and just before Siouxsie was due on we had a lightning storm. No thunder or rain, just lightning.
Iggy's gig gets pulled and we are told to leave the festival site as exteme weather was due......

Even Morrissey hasn't had to cancel before due to lightning!

 

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Very lucky indeed! Back at the festival site as they arranged to get Iggy and Siouxsie back tonight!
Here now waiting for Iggy first. Very happy.

The Israel 12" is very rare,UK release French pressing iirc
But it's a rip off ,lol...just a few extra Drum rolls iirc
Not sure why Polydor records bothered to bring out the ' extended ' version....but certainly a collector's item now.

I knew all of the above ,but I just had to google check before finishing the post
Mid 50s minds can crash and burn...slowly,lol
