What the heck is this?

Have you established a good reputation at HL and got some Sisters stuff to sell or trade with the community? Or are you searching for that elusive ultra rare live bootleg from 1988? Ever had a bad experience with a trader on Ebay? Let us all know here. Outdated threads will be purged over time.

the first one is an interview CD, the interview is from about 1984, they talk about the Body and Soul single amongst other things, I think it's about 14 minutes and isn't complete.

So it's not the same as the "official" interview CD or the baktabak vinyl?

The t-shirt, on the other hand, looks totally duff, like it was knocked up by a stoned, dyslexic elf on her lunchbreak. A particularly untalented elf, at that.

That'd probably be the spiral scratch interview. Thoughts and Prayers has a Canadian (I think) guy (possibly stoned) interviewer.

Not so much "official" as just "not a bootleg" - http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... egory=1572

This ones pretty common, but I've never seen the other one.

I've got 4 Sisters interview CD-s: "I Was Wrong", Baktabak, "Thoughts and Prayers" and this one http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... egory=1572

"I Was Wrong" is the best, no doubt.
About others - can't remember which ones I'm talking about but one of them included an interview available also on another.
Have to check it tomorrow. Today it's too late and I didn't look this topic carefully enough earlier, sorry.

At first I have correct myself.
I have 4 Sisters interview CDs:
1. The Sisters Of Mercy - "I Was Wrong" - the official promo CD with 2 versions of the song and an interview with Danny Fields (32:52); P 1990, C 1991; very good one :notworthy:
2. Sisters Of Mercy (without "The") - The Conversation Disc Series (52:42)
3. Sisters Of Mercy (without "The") - "Thoughts And Prayers" (14:32)
see also: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... egory=1572
4. The Sisters Of Mercy - Limited Edition Picture Disc (Baktabak) (28:33)
see also: http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll? ... egory=1572

So, as I said the first is an official and the speech is very clear. Didn't check it today but I remember he told about not being goth ("it's an architectural style"), about Public Enemy, "Jolene" etc.
2 and 3 are the same interview - i. e. the 3rd is a part of the 2nd. Just checked them briefly - in the beginning Eldritch talks about heavy metal being misunderstood.
Currently listening the 4rd. All the others were interviews with AE, here Patricia is also involved. At first AE told about London ("horrible", "Patricia lives there") and himself living in Hamburg & Leeds. Then they told about "Floodland" - the interviewer said it's a great album and "1959" as his favourite. AE was agree. Btw he told the next single would be "Mother Russia". Then they told about "The Sisterhood" affair, learning languages etc. As I said, I'm listening it yet.
Did it help anybody?

@ Pikkrong - That "T-Shirt" is AFAIK not and never has been an official shirt - this bootleg is not even paticularly good either IMHO

I would get this one if I were you.. it's the Thoughts And Prayers "Crown of Thorns" hologram series cd and it is amusing as f**k. You have Von going on about afterhours.... this is not a gonzoid amphetamine thing.. this is more like "tingle tingle" ampthetamine...*LOL* Very entertaining.... And yer get the hologram as well! Anyways.. let's cut the crap..... has it got Sisters written on there? So... buy it..
