Gary Marx pre-Sisters?

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

I think you need to get Herr Administrator to ask that 'Nice Mr etc ' and get it straight from the horses mouth so to speak.

You'll probably find 'Nice Mr' also outbids you ... :lol:
Loki was never worshiped as the other Gods,
Which is quite understandable.

I may be wrong but I think Taylor was trying to point out that someone already bought a copy from E-Bay Italy...

Hmmmmmmmmm... :?

Deep down in the back of my record collection I have a copy of a gatefold LP named Forgotten Frontiers from 1986 by a band called Naked Voice (ie remarkably close to the band name mentioned on ebay). It was released on Prism Records.

Naked Voice recorded a single from the featuring a certain Mr That Guitarist - from a band you may have heard of...

The album is very goff - and the singer sounds VERY like Mr Gary Marx COULD'VE sounded at the time, especially if you take into account the obvious Sisters demos with him on and even the more recent stuff he's released.

I could be completely wrong, but perhaps (and I really don't know, I'm just trying to save people from buying something which may be of incorrect origin) this might have something to do with what's on offer - with a great deal 'lost in translation'...

Tracks include Dreamhouse, Where Was? (with Mr Hussey - a single) and a few others...is this or something like it what's *actually* on offer?

I dunno...but if this helps. It could of course just muddy the waters...

I bought the album yesterday, and I must admit it made me cringe! So Gary Marx was the singer 'Guthrie Handley', did I get that right?

If that's right, he even re-recorded one of the album tracks:
