MINISTRY Rarities and Mixes Collection

[tenohtwo]

Here is my collection of rare, mostly-live Ministry songs from the 1980's, many of which never made it to the recording studio. Most of these are audience recordings, so the quality is what you'd expect for such old songs. I split them up into two parts, so the file sizes aren’t too outrageous. I'm also including the mixes I have of "Work For Love" and "I Wanted To Tell Her". Here are the track listings, along with notes of interest regarding certain songs:

[quote]Wayne, I would post "Cold Life", but it is still in print on the "Early Trax" CD from RykoDisc.[/quote]

Ahhh, but the one on Early Trax is the same edited version as on the old 12" Singles compilation. The version from the 12" is about a minute longer (repeating the verses, if I remember correctly).

No kidding? Guess I haven't listened to the vinyl version since Twelve Inch Singles came out on CD..19 years ago! Had no idea it was edited for the CD. Damn.
