Me and you are two of a kind fella totally agree.

LOL join the club! Bought it after a friend loaned me the cassette version.

[@chinarose1358]

The vinyl is available to buy at HMV. Wonder if anyone has the new pressing and if it is any good

[@villedocvalle]

Steve Severin and Robert Smith, how I wish the pair would produce another gem now

[@docsavage8640]

I doubt Robert can. Hasn't done anything good in nearly 30 years

Docsavage you're right. I carried on buying the records but none of it does anything for me. I can't get over though how amazing the earlier Cure songs and The Glove LP still sound as fresh now as they ever did. @@docsavage8640

I recall laying in bed sick, listening to A Blues in Drag and just wanting to melt into the mattress. Very atmospheric album that combines the Cure and Banshees sound.

[@stevepettit2064]

I mentioned a blues in drag on my comment here beautiful the whole should hear it.

[@ERICF66]

I would love to see this exact lineup (Andy, Porl, Severin, Robert, Janette) get together and play those songs! 33 years later and this record is still great! :)

[@isamuu99]

Sadly, Andy is no longer with us. RIP :(

It was a gem when it came out and it is now. Still a pre requisite to getting ready for, Friday night out.

[@robertbarber1624]

I ordered this album on prelease from Woolworths and the man behind the counter told me to get out of the shop as he thought i was taking the piss lol

[@stevepettit2064]

I bought this as a teen was a fan of both the banshees and the cure amazing but under rated and unheard album that has stood the test of time my fave song on it is a blues in drag beautiful as is the album sleeve artwork.

[@riggsdesigner]

I still and always love this track from The Glove I used to listen to it on cassette tape in high school

[@digitalkov]

Truly ahead of its time... it would be even today.

[@vinnieblesi1009]

Amazing this album changed my life. I never knew there was a real music video

[@digitalkov]

Absolutely magical

[@far_away_rhys]

Imagine an alternate universe where Robert left The Cure and carried on with The Glove

[@WJJ1961]

Stunning album still.

[@dougcupo7816]

What a miraculous, beautiful display of music sound and emotion

[@ibelieveicansoar]

I just randomly bought the 1980 book by William Bayer that this song was presumably named after. Back cover description: “One Sister Lived By The Heat Of Men’s Desires. The Other Watched From The Shadows... And Waited.” Further down on the back cover: “What erotic obsession had driven her sister to the point of madness? And who was the powerful dark man who dominated her fantasies?” I can see some likely tie-ins with the lyrics there. And the front cover fine print says “Don’t Love Me. Don’t Trust Me. Just Punish Me.”

Supposedly they were big time drugged up for this and then got sideways with each other. I am a fan of the album.

[@thomas0101]

sublime + haunting 30+ years later...

[@lazybelphegore6748]

My good friend worked in a record store-he made tapes of the albums for his special friends. He gave me a cassette tape with This album on one side, and several early songs by “And Also the Trees” on the other side. (I think AATT toured with the cure once maybe)? It was my absolute favorite tape; and I spent the next 20 years trying to fine either album in America to no avail. Finally; along came the internet; itunes youtube and Amazon to help me out!! I was able to buy “Blue Sunshine”; but I still have not been able to find the very early singles by “And Also the Trees”. Maybe some brilliant record company with very good taste in Post-Punk will re-release them all someday?

[@prayers_for_rain]

collaboration between severin and smith who were having issues with there bands at the time ( the cure and banshees ) so formed the glove as a welcome distraction. Andy Anderson who had recently joined the Cure on Drums and Jeanette Landray who was actually a TOTP dancer on vocals. Due to recording contractual restrictions Smith could only sing on 2 songs hence why Landray was roped in to sing. Later the whole album ( Blue Sunshine ) was released with all the songs sung by smith ( from original demos ). Had this on limited edition blue vinyl when it came out.

[@milouddouh3169]

beautiful track

[@nowiamsane6561]

Porl is playing an SH 101. Insanely cool. Love This album. 🍒

[@zoeherriot]

I mean - Port is MIMING playing an SH 101. But he wasn't on the album. Keyboards were performed by Robert, Steve and Martin McCarrick.

[@Alpha-soixante]

Memories of being in 8th grade. Good memories.

[@snowbelle74]

Very similar to Belladonna by Siouxsie and the Banshees. I love it xxx

[@stephanbecker2459]

Vinyl-Album habe ich noch zu Hause...

[@evilrobottolhurst]

Here's a thought. In 2015, someone *born* in 1984 ( a year after this) (someone who was not only not born for punk, also missed Duran Duran v Kajagoogoo and by the time they were a teenager had missed Britpop) is now older than Siouxsie was then - at 29! Siouxsie's dancing comes over as mysterious and alluring despite her haircut. That's class right there!

[@ncdwave77]

That's not Siouxsie

[@youjoker9647]

+Robert Tolhurst That's Jeanette Landray singing, Budgies then Girlfriend. How the fuck could you mistake her for Siouxie?

[@evilrobottolhurst]

Explains why I imagined her different! ;)

[@dominica4799]

Definitely not Siouxsie Sioux

[@mathuwhycough6591]

looking them up on wiki is weird, Jeanette the singer isn’t mentioned only listed as the singer

The Creatures was so creative ! that is great if Steve Severin and Robert Smith were friends and did a duet too through The Glove. The Glove singer never found her own place as Siouxsie Sioux

[@davidellis5141]

Singer was Steve Severins lady. Had to be drafted in when Polydor said Robert could only do vocals on 2 tracks.

[@abandcalledae]

No she wasn't. She was Budgie's girlfriend, not Severin's.

[@sfgooner70]

@@abandcalledae wasn't Budgie already with Siouxsie by that point?

[@dbfhorses]

And unfortunately she's the least cool member of the band, which is why I suppose we never heard of her again. There's an illusive margin between having "it" and not, but it's pretty plain to see here. Having said that, I've always quite liked her voice on that album.

[@modifiedcontent]

She's awful; can't sing, bland voice, no personality, dragged down the whole project. Only the songs with Robert Smith vocals are OK.

[@harryflash5202]

Good. Smith is a poor vocalist. The song would be rubbish with his voice. Her voice is far superior.

[@kirkpearson2173]

Smith and severin at their best

[@chinarose1358]

Were there any B sides, remixes or extended versions from the band?
