Pickup currently not available
A Rather Marvellous Snapshot of The Cure at Their Peak
Imagine being in the Ontario Theatre on a November evening in 1984, watching one of alternative rock's most captivating live performances unfold before you. Well, we cannot quite promise you a time machine, but this splendid limited edition double LP comes rather close. Only 300 copies pressed on gorgeous transparent teal vinyl exist in the world, which means if you are reading this and feeling even a whisper of temptation, the universe may be gently nudging you.
Why Choose Our Live Cure Recording
Authenticity and Intimacy: This is The Cure during The Top Tour, capturing the raw energy of a legendary North American performance. No studio polish, no second takes, just the glorious real thing.
The Tracks That Matter: From the opening moments through beloved classics like Boys Don't Cry, A Forest, Let's Go to Bed, and The Caterpillar, every song here is a fan favourite for a reason. Nineteen tracks of pure, properly handsome post-punk excellence across four vinyl sides.
Collector's Scarcity: At 300 copies worldwide, this transparent teal pressing is the sort of thing that makes other collectors quietly jealous at parties. It is both a marvellous listening experience and a rather good investment in your personal mythology.
Beautiful Format: Vinyl sounds fabulous, looks fabulous, and feels fabulous. This double LP sits on your shelf like a conversation starter that actually delivers on its promise.

THE RATHER IMPORTANT BITS
This rather lovely piece ships directly from our brand partner - we work with independent brands who are absolutely brilliant and work frightfully hard to create beautiful things.
SHIPPING DESTINATIONS
Now, here's the thing - our wonderful brand partners ship to lots of different places, but not all of them can ship worldwide.
Some are brilliant at international shipping, others prefer to keep things closer to home.
At checkout, you'll see exactly where this particular brand can send your goodies.
We're terribly sorry, but shipping costs do vary rather wildly depending on where you are in the world. The exact figures pop up at checkout - no nasty surprises!
RETURNS

Now, we absolutely adore our brand partners - they work incredibly hard and we do try to support them as much as we possibly can. So I'm rather afraid we have to pass the return postage costs back to you. Frightfully sorry about that!
🌍 PLEASE CHOOSE THOUGHTFULLY:
Our wonderful partners put their hearts into everything they make.
Ordering multiple sizes to try at home is rather hard on our planet and makes things jolly difficult for these brilliant independent creators.
When in doubt, do ask us first!

We Have Lots More Like This.........
Hello, we are Sostter....
Sostter began, as all good ideas do, with a lively conversation and a shared sense of frustration. Why had the world of independent design become so serious, so samey, so… beige? Where was the spark, the imagination, the sheer joy of discovering something that made you stop and stare?
We dreamt of a marketplace that celebrated difference — where curious minds could explore a world of independent brands, design-led makers, and thoughtful artisans. A space that felt exciting, human, and beautifully imperfect.
Today, Sostter brings together remarkable people and their creations — from London to Lausanne, Brooklyn to Berlin — uniting makers and discoverers through craftsmanship, creativity, and conscience. Every object tells a story, and every purchase supports an independent brand doing things differently.
This is just the beginning. But enough about us — step inside, explore our world, and see what catches your imagination.
Giving Back
We’re proud to support Sutton Night Watch, a grassroots UK charity making a real difference in the lives of those facing homelessness. Through regular donations of stock, supplies, and essentials, we back their mission to offer warmth, dignity, and practical help to anyone in need — right where it matters most.
