Eldo & skeletal Family on Harburg

Know the whereabouts of any ex-Sisters members or hangers-on? Got any amusing anecdotes about members of the band, past or present? Post 'em here...

I bet that few know that at the famous Skeletal Family Hamburg Markethalle 21.09.85 gig where Eldo & Hussey done an apparence as
special guest and perform 2 songs, the Skeletal Family singer was
Katrina Philips and not Anne Marie Hurst as most of peoples believed.

I thought everyone knew it was Katrina singing ...."knock knock knocking on heavens doo ah oo oha uh oha" . :D
Katrina sounds nothing like Anne Marie.

The new singer Claire sounds nothing like either of them either. The comeback could have been fantastic but it's stopped, started, stopped, started & started fizzling out to be honest.

Seen them with all three singers quite a few times, Katrina is technically the best singer but Anne Marie fits the band the best . Claire is ...um... probably the best looking in a catsuit .

Here is a review of that gig published in german SPEX in November 1985. It's in german (of course). It seems that the editor did not like Von's appearance ;-)

:lol:

Google's translation is:

"Andrew Eldritch. Oh s**t, the boring Schwesternerschrecker, with its Schlapphut, which it borrowed from Udo lime tree mountain. I glaue, carries he, in order to hide (like lime tree mountain) its advanced hair loss. At all this type in rear spar rum hangs like a bad spirit, composed allegedly new Songs, erklatscht additions of Guadalcanal Diary and plays star guest where it can, even with the jazz Butcher Live Mitschnitt in the Po. to the finally last addition?Knocking on Heavens Door ", met one itself to a session, in which also the guitarist of the sisters participated. If the Gig had up to now rather a positive character, animated the penetrant nervige operational readiness level of Andrew Gebrumme with this anyway redundant addition to fleeing. "
