Withnail in a Sandstorm

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.

Was listening to the Withnail & I soundtrack which has a really nice short instrumental track on it called 'The Wolf' - it comprises just a saxophone, flute (bass flute? - sounds quite deep) and synth, at a very slow tempo.

Thought it would sound really good with the Untitled/Sandstorm drum beat rumbling along within it. Or perhaps a 'mash up' of the tracks weaved in together.

Sadly I have no idea how to go about doing such a remix, but thought I might mention it in case anyone wanted to run with it.....

I can email an mp3 of it if anyone is interested (but can't up-load - sorry!)

:)
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

I have recently thought that Lucretia would work well with an Aulos Recorders accompaniment.

I think a mash-up of the two would sound fantastic.

Envy you for having a copy of the Withnail soundtrack though :evil: :lol:

A matter of gender and or orientation should not feature in the enjoyment of a 'rock' band. VT era was a 'rock' band, OK!?

Oh yes, now you come to mention it, I'm sure the early demos of You Could Be The One featured recorders.
