Hi everyone...

I used to collect sisters records a few years ago, just out of curiosity i wondered how rare these 3 items are..

The last time around/ PC69 -85 2xLP
Live in the Trojan horse LP
Don Juan LP

If you want i cant post the entire collection, its not huge in anyway, but maybe there could be something of interest..

Best regards

Out of interest I have a copy of the "Enter The Sisters" LP - bought at the end of the 80's

The lable says "Metal Speed" and the cat number is M.S.201 - is this worth anything - I know it has something of a history when Sisters boots are concerned!

I remember paying Â£12 for it!

Drsisters · 14 Sep 2003, 10:54

is the sleeve on the enter the sisters bootleg blue/black or red/black ?
the blue/black sleeve with insert I have seen go for almost 200 $ on record markets.

@ Drsisters

Your the one to ask it would seem !

My copy of "Enter The Sisters" is of the red/black type - therefore I guess it the second pressing!

The vinyl is mint - the cover is quite badly printed and creased - but it was like that when I bought it!

I am guessing it not worth as much as the Blue/Black version.

about 10-15quid for "kill..."and "return.."
silence can go up to 20 and it s worth it. one of the finest bootlegs
on the market

Sometimes you can be lucky

I bought green eldritch for 10 $ from a store in Sweden, they didnÂ´t know what they where selling

HalloweenÂ´s day I bought for 350 $.
House Of Reptiles I bought for 500 $, but I have seen it go for 4000 $
There is one problem with the final floorshow vinyl. they are limited to 30 copys. But someone have done a second pressing of the bootleg limited to 500 copys, but the cover only say 30 copys. I have 1 copy from both pressings, the original pressing have a white label and a insert. the second pressing have a bbc inscript on the label on the pressing and no insert.

Is this the one with the "Wake" artwork? I bought that one, "Armageddon Outtakes" and "The Last Time Around" at the same record fair in 1987. Really don't know why I keep them. How much do they usually go for?

taylor · 17 Nov 2003, 00:27

armaggedon lp Â£100
Wake 2lp Â£75
Last time lp Â£50

@ Drsisters

Your the one to ask it would seem !

My copy of "Enter The Sisters" is of the red/black type - therefore I guess it the second pressing!

The vinyl is mint - the cover is quite badly printed and creased - but it was like that when I bought it!

I am guessing it not worth as much as the Blue/Black version.

Hi there, had to register for this one.

Either there are several blue versions availble or the $200 is way too overpriced.
I bought four sisters bootleg LP's on ebay at somewhat 20 euros: 2 x Enter the Sisters (both blue and red), Floorshow (live) and Echoes vol. 4. Neither one of mine have any inserts though.
I even thought the blue one was way newer since it's in better shape.

Anyway, I still wouldn't trust the $200 price as the record itself doesn't have anything amazing content. All the songs are available in "Some Girls...", so I can't see any reason for _anybody_ to pay such price from it. Then again, if it's true, I might have made a real bargain

Andy TG · 18 Nov 2003, 02:49

Hi "Force" and Welcome to Heartland! - Enjoy Your Stay!

Thanks for the reply about "Enter The Sisters" - I bought my copy in 1988/89 - about 4/5 years before "Some Girls" was released I guess that was / is the reason for the inflated price.
