Photo: Can anyone help me out

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.

Well, I didn't really want to start a new topic for it, but as I couldn't find the Reissue threads right away here I am :oops: :lol:

I was going through the booklet that came with the FALAA reissue and actually quite liked the one in the middle - the misty one that covers two pages. Now here's my question: Does anyone have it digital? Preferably rather big if possible, would like to make it into my desktop image :)

Thanks :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy:

Thanks, IZ - I'm going through a MDB run at the moment and there are soooooo many great lyrics to pick from. That one is a favourite though !

As for you, Z - try these:-

Original (actually from the original booklet but the same pic)

Edited to remove staples though it's far from perfect !

Any good ?

Yeah, I thought it'd be a bit small, but figured the best part would be in it :D

@IZ: That's what a proper OS looks like for you :P

If there was a picture that got me into the Girls it would've been this one. Beautiful. Stunning. Inspiring. Romantic.

i mean it's actually part of it cause it must've been the first picture i saw of Eldritch.

Now now, if you have an ORIGONAL copy of First and Last and Always, with a gatefold sleeve you will notice a rather larger version of that image :)

I think this is grounds for removal of your Moderator licence, sorry license ;D

cheers for the MySpace PM BTW

rather striking a pose as leading role in the theater play 'The Elephant Man'.
Put their heads on f*cking pikes in front of the venue for all I care.

I have Bowie's Broadway interpretation on DVD but a good spot on the Sex Pistols "I'm not an animal" reference.

But that's probably so big it won't fit in a scanner - not that mine works anymore anyhow :lol:

Actually, that's the only Sisters album I haven't yet got on vinyl, shame on me :oops:

Shame on *me* even more, as I've none. Hey, I'm poor, have no room, and don't own a record player, anyway. Pfffft. :( :von:

Yeah, but Mistah Blast, I didn't even *hear* them until 1988 (courtesy of KROQ, Los Angeles).

Poor and record player-less then, as I am now. Go figure... :(
