Album Description
Available in:
Some Girls Wander by Mistake is a compilation album by English band the Sisters of Mercy, released on their own label Merciful Release, distributed by Eastwest/Warner Music UK, on 27 April 1992.
The album collected the complete and unedited studio recording work of the band from 1980 to 1983: their first single, "The Damage Done", their second single, "Body Electric", their fourth single, "Anaconda", their first two EPs, Alice and The Reptile House, and the 12 inch edition of their fifth single, "Temple of Love". The 2017 release includes two alternate mixes of "Under The Gun": Metropolis mix and Jutland mix, originally released in 1993 on the 12" vinyl of "Under The Gun".
"Temple of Love" is the only song from the 1980–1983 time period that was published with an "extended version". The album does not contain the 7 inch version of the song, which is the same as the extended version but faded out halfway. Although "Temple of Love" was re-recorded in 1992 to promote the compilation album's release, the new version was not initially included on the album. "Temple of Love (1992)" featured Israeli vocalist Ofra Haza.
The compilation includes cover versions of "1969", originally recorded by The Stooges, and "Gimme Shelter", originally recorded by the Rolling Stones, which appeared on the Alice and Temple of Love 12 inch EPs, respectively.
The album title derived from the Leonard Cohen song "Teachers", from the 1967 album Songs of Leonard Cohen, which was a staple live cover for the band throughout its career. The full line is: "Some girls wander by mistake / Into the mess that scalpels make". Songs of Leonard Cohen also included the Cohen song "Sisters of Mercy", which provided the band's name.
The album was issued as a limited-edition CD with artwork "postcards" of the early vinyl singles, and as a regular CD without such cards.
