a new live lp come 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.

Yes, the only version I've heard is seriously badly distorted on the last track. Would be nice to get a clean copy. Shame the cover of the boot isn't very imaginative - they've only had 24 years to come up with a design!

Be interesting to know who the seller is, its a newbie with v low feedback.
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

I don't think it's a different source. Anyone with a vinyl-machine can press records from cd-r or tape.

the artwork looks like it could have originated from one of mine, I did send vector art out to two guys that posted briefly then disappeared, I stopped after that

I asked the seller about the quality, his reply was

'I don't know, I have not listen to it, cheers!'

...which doesn't exactly inspire confidence!

Anyone on the forum buy it and like to comment?

He's a record seller, not a Sisters fan I guess. So I can Imagine he doesn't listen to all the records he sells.

so he's not even certain if it is what it claims to be?

how much does he want for it again? divide by 100 and I might be interested.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

True, but then he's selling only a small number of freshly pressed up vinyl boots of a select few post/punk bands. You'd think he might take some interest in his merchandise!

I received a copy today. I'll let you know about the sound quality later, since my record player seems to be dead ... Here some pics:

It does look rather lovely being all shiny and new. Makes you want to buy one whether you've got a turntable or not

Well, yeah, I admit it, I have a problem; I need a fix of ToL every now and then, when no one is looking, but just don't spread it about, okay?!
