Just Another Gloomy Sunday

Was listening to Billie Holiday’s version of  "Gloomy Sunday" tonight. I immediately thought I wanted to hear Diamanda Galás' version from her covers album The Singer. When I was searching around for that tune I dug out these two bootlegs from the Scream Queen Extraordinaire that I thought I could use to torture all you music lovers.

First, recorded live at Castlefranco Emilia Teatro Dada May 09, 1992. Diamanda's album The Singer had just been released & here she covers the…well…covers.
