since the early 90s, i always enjoyed my "they are not departed or gone" bootleg LP, but since the digital re-broadcasts were available, i can never listen to my vinyl...it is incomplete, runs too fast and sounds bad, compared to the digital broadcasts. sure, it is dab stuff, lossy format...

Love the title and am eager to hear what you find out about this boot. I can't offer anything in regards to sound quality but in terms of useless trivia I can tell you that the coverart was used a long time ago on the debut album from Austrian death metallers, Pungent Stench For God Your Soul For Me...

Incredible! Who is this pic? I'm guessing some of you guys from the forum have visited this cemetery? Easy to find this monument? Look for the student flat, I guess lol.

@ Joy Thanks for sending these!

No wonder. Doesn't look half as goff with the 1970s monolith that is Henry Price student flats in the background. Too funny! My eye has gone toward those details in the background over the years but I always thought it was like an ornate iron gate on the border of the cemetery or something. Student...

Otherwise, none of these look familiar at all. Can't believe you pinpointed the date too! &...

wow! Blown away. Don't think I've ever seen any of these! thanks

Here's the full pic. First one I pasted above had the whole top chopped off:

Indeed! Yeah, that looks like another one for sure.

These two look like they could have also been taken that same day (but looks like eldritch has different shades on and marx different shirt). Everything else looks similar but who's to say since attire was probably pretty consistent day to day back then for the whole band. https://godsandalcoves.fil...

Hey there. Was just looking at this Andrew Liles FALAA tribute thing and on his site he's got a pic of himself standing in what looks like the same spot the Sisters took those Leeds cemetery 1984/1985 pics I've seen on bootlegs and online over the years. It got me wondering if there might be other p...

Susky: The one you put up for download is wrong in every way. The Youtube one in your original post is closer to correct. If I may say so, I believe mine is the most accurate of the three. The song does have keyboards on it and should not be as bass heavy as your mono version. It is bass heavy beca...

robertzombie, I just hit play on your needledrop. Sounds beautiful....and saves me from unpacking my gear just yet Many many thanks.

mh, yes you got it. The one I said I was used to is the one I put up for download which you are suggesting is the "real" version (though possibly mine is mono and a tad quick). The re-EQ'd version is the youtube one I posted earlier in the thread. Excellent to know the heavier, bass-ier on...

Wow, robertzombie. Insane that you pinpointed that. I downloaded your FLAC and have been playing it and then listening to the one I'm used to (mono one as you suggested). So, maybe it's not keys per se that I'm hearing on these youtube videos (that theremin thing I keep talking about) but just somet...

Wow, excellent. Thanks for the info guys. I had no idea I was listening to a re-EQ'd version all this while! Dare I say I prefer this re-EQ'd one? Sacrilege? Maybe. It's probably because I'm just personally/sentimentally/autobiographically used to this re-EQ'd version now that I want to say I prefer...

OK, here's the version of "Body Electric" from Body & Soul I've been referring to as the one I'm used to. Just uploaded to this file transfer site from my ipod. File transfer site says this link will expire in 7 days which may be easily remedied by the rest of planet earth but I'm help...

I just sent an email to my buddy who did the vinyl rip for me many years ago. Maybe he purposely put a different version of "Body Electric" on my ipod? I haven't played my original vinyl in ages and am just used to this version here on the ipod. Is there a place on this site where I can up...

I just listened to a bunch of different versions on youtube and they all seem to have that theremin-like keyboard thing running throughout the song. Listening to the version I'm used to, I still don't hear it at all even if I strain my ears. In fact, in the first portion of the song there are plenty...

Hi robertzombie. Thanks for the reply. Nope, I'm familiar with the version you sent from the SBWBM compact disc. that version is a bit quicker and the bass and guitar seem to be playing in a slighter higher key. I finally got my ipod charged here and I'm now listening to the version I'm used to (wis...

Hi. Been a while since I've posted here. Hope everyone is well :) So, I was in the mood to listen to Body & Soul vinyl earlier today and my ipod is dead and turntable is still boxed up after a recent move. I had a friend do a rip from my original vinyl several years ago which I've played on my i...

Interesting list. Just made it through and entered my vote: Coil, Death in June, Swans, This Mortal Coil, Smiths, Sisterhood, Diamanda, etc, etc. Obviously not much metal on the ballot but Metallica - Master of Puppets, Slayer - Reign in Blood, Possessed - Beyond the Gates & Candlemass - Epicus ...

This post has me dragging out lots of early 90's goth stuff that was coming out on Cleopatra, etc. Still have all the cds here. Man, Cleopatra was churning it out back then, eh? Wonder what happened with that label? Anyway, lots of this stuff VERY inspired by the Sisters. I was gobbling this stuff u...

just back on topic: Tiamat - Skeleton Skeletron http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqyjQ6-avK8 Ah ha! Still a shock to see/hear this even though it's over a decade old! That bald, bull fighter with the Andrew Eldritch drawl in the vid will, to me, always be Mr "Lucifer Hellslaughter" a name h...
