The Mission: Gods Own Medicine (1986)
The Mission was known as The Mission (UK) in the USA. In Canada, we knew them as The Mission. The band included Wayne Hussey and Craig Adams, who were both once members of The Sisters of Mercy. Now, how hard is it to use an apostrophe? The lack of an apostrophe ruins the album title. Anyway, The Mission were a goth band, but not my favourite goth band. I liked them, but I preferred other goth bands much more. Still, I listened to this record recently, and I still like it.
I have the non-gate-fold UK pressing from 1986. Oddly, this is not a valuable record. Even the first UK pressing is only worth a few bucks. Real goth records, from Bauhaus and Siouxsie have maintained their value.
