Sisters live tapes 81-85 - Is anyone interested?

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 Outdated threads will be purged over time.

I used to trade alot of bootleg tapes in the mid '80's, and recently re-discovered the following 12 off TDK D90's when sorting through some boxes in the loft (which were either bought at record fairs or traded) :

1st + 2nd gigs Leeds 81 + collection of live covers
Brixton Ace Cinema (mixer) 6.4.83
London ULU (mixer) 6.5.83
Brussels Plan K 27.8.83
London Electric Ballroom 24.5.84
Canadian Radio Interview '84 + Jensen '83 + Peel '84 sessions
Amsterdam Melkweg 2.6.84
Bremen Schlachthof 8.11.84 + Peel '82 session
Portsmouth Guildhall 22/3/85
London Lyceum 25/3/85 + Whistle Test tracks
Long Beach 30.5.85
San Fransisco I-Beam 1.6.85
New York 7.6.85

I saw the Sisters at Portsmouth Guildhall in '85 - and would have purchased/traded the above tapes in 85/86/87.

Is anyone is interested in buying these tapes as a job lot for a token sum?
I am not looking to take the p*ss on the amount - more so just find them a good home (or bin them).
Let me know your thoughts, cheers Pat

Would be interested in a couple of them but not the whole lot as I have most of these; and I'd prefer to trade rather than buy, which I'm guessing isn't what you're after. Good luck though and thanks for the offer.

Incidentally, might be worth pointing out for the sake of accuracy that the 1/6/85 date was at the Kabuki Theater, not the I-Beam.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.

Curious to know if this one is legitimate...

Brussels Plan K 27.8.83

I have seen it often traded in the past, but invariably ends up being...
8.5.83 BRUXELLES, MALLEMONT-FESTIVAL

Do you have a track listing for this one?

At the beginning of Valentine Eldritch mumbles 'one song'...
Before Gimme Shelter he says 'Oh oh, here are the cops'...
He's just getting into it more & more ;D

As far as I know the one & only time they played in Belgium in 83 was the Mallemunt gig on the 5th of august.
Several people who were there told me it was a top nite out 8)
in dub we trust

i) "At the beginning of Valentine Eldritch mumbles 'one song'...

Just listened to the tape and the above chat is present - so it is the 8.5.83 BRUXELLES, MALLEMONT-FESTIVAL tape (and not the Plan K tape 27.8.83 tape as the box lists)

ii) "I know that full recording of first gig exists somewhere but it was in york, isn't it? Other side they played leeds at least 9 times in 81 and we've got only 4 tracks from 4th may warehouse, so maybe it's something interesting? Can you post setlist? **

Ok - here is what the cover lists -
1st gig Leeds 4.81 (mixer) - 2 tracks- 1969 and Sister Ray
2nd gig Leeds St Johns 7.5.81 (mixer) - Damage Done, Watch, Teachers, Adrenachrome, Sister Ray

The tape then has studio version of first two singles, Gimme Gimme Gimme + Sister Ray from NYC '84, The m*****n early demo's, and then various live tracks ....Stairway to Heaven, Hey Joe, Purple Haze, Fix, Temple of Love, Gimme Gimme Gimme, and You're Beautiful.

Hope that helps clarify things - just ask if u need more info

I have a version of this on cd, which includes the intro to the gig - don't think that the weeded one has this. If anyone's interested in trading me for it, then please pm me!
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

yeah, that sounds about right, there is some dire tape music over the PA for about 4 minutes and then the compere introduces the band just before they start up.
