Description
The Mission – Children was released in 1988 on Mercury and is the second studio album by Wayne Hussey's band. Produced by John Paul Jones, the record sounds bigger and more epic than the debut and made The Mission one of the key bands of British gothic rock. It includes Tower Of Strength, Beyond The Pale and Kingdom Come.
On offer is the 1988 UK original pressing on Mercury (MISH 2) in an embossed gatefold sleeve.
