Notes

The Impossible Recordworks/Route One/Légerdemain, USA

US version of the Love In A Void bootleg.
B3 mistitled as "Make Up Break Up".

A1-A4 Studio radio session (John Peel Show, BBC Radio 1, recorded 29/11/1979).

Tracks A5-B2 officially released in 1989 on The Peel Sessions - The Second Session.
Track B3 officially released in 2005 on The Scream - Deluxe Edition.

My copy DEFINITELY has 6 tracks on side B, with "Love and Romance" as B4. It may have been removed from subsequent pressings as it is most likely a mistakenly included Slits demo. Just played it back to back with the version on "Cut" by the Slits and it sounds like a rawer, one take, possibly live version by the same band. Doesn't really sound like Siouxsie. All in all some great raw early Banshees on this collection, though. Good companion to "The Scream."

I can confirm joeycorvette's statement. My copy of Metal Shadows also has the extra track. I also recognized it as a Slits recording.
