No worries. :notworthy:

You're new so you wouldn't be totally aware of how sensitive a topic these particular demos are around here.

If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

or how about offering the 4 tracks up as a weed? it'd certainly be a vaste improvement on that p*ss-poor TC weed I offered a while ago!
If that involves burning cd's and posting, forget it. I should have it on one of the upload sites on wednesday.

Cheers Big Si, listening now. :notworthy: :notworthy: The best belated Yule pressie I've had for a long time. :D :D :D

No wonder Von wanted to keep it for The Sisters rather then The Sisterhood, but my mind is playing with how it could've sounded with the venom and visciousness that would've been dripping from it if placed in with Giving Ground and Jihad on Gift. Might have had to speed it up a touch.
I don't necessarily agree with everything I think.

This is the link to the mp3 'ELDRAY' which is taken from a cd I have of This Corrosion 'demos'. I do not know where the cd came from other than it used to belong to someone I used to know. I believe it was taken from a tape so the quality is not great.

The very first This Corrosion demos, made during the writing of the song and meant to be the second Sisterhood single. Engineered by Roy Neave who also did the James Ray first records. Only 1 (!!!) tape is in existing and it comes from a former roommate of James Ray and also includes a by James Ray typed insert paper. Both James Ray and Andrew Pinnell guaranteed me that the tape is genuine and the only existing copy!
-this corrosion:
1 sung by James Ray
2 sung by James Ray and Andrew Eldritch
3 sung by James Ray
4 duet with Lucas Fox, Andrew Eldritch and James Ray
5 duet with Andrew Eldritch and James Ray
6 sung by Andrew Eldritch
-the B-side contains some very rare remixes of 'Mexico Sundown Blues' that are never released and were made on the same date at the same studio!
- All 'This Corrosion'-versions are unknown to anybody and in a much heavier style, without female voice. The lyrics are not like the final 'Floodland'-song and most of the 6 demos are unfinished!!
Must be the rarest Sisters-tape ever!'
