Feel No Pain (Picture Disc)

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.

Feel No Pain (Picture Disc) ... checking the SistersWiki, I've somewhat stumbled over the fact that this is listed under "Bootlegs" ...

http://sisterswiki.org/Feel_No_Pain_%28bootleg%29


But is it really a bootleg or a promo, rather, for the Go Figure album? ... :eek: :?: ...

AFAIK all versions of Go Figure in existence, including Feel No Pain are sourced from the mp3s that "leaked" onto the net. It's not an official promo.

Yes, but what makes me wonder is the picture on the back of the vinyl.

Wasn't the girl someone known more or less closely by Eldritch ...
IIRC, the according photo was explicitly taken for the purpose of this picture disc ... or did I just dream such rumour? ... :eek: ...

Oh really? Funny thing is, I thought it was a painting, not a photo! :lol:

It looks like a painting to me rather than a photo.

It's a painting/drawing by Hajime Sorayama.

Hah, wow !!! Thank you for a straight answer !!! And even more thanks for the link to this wonderful page ... :notworthy: :notworthy: :notworthy: ...

There is a page about Hajime Sorayama in Wikipedia, so I've linked the SistersWiki to that one ... :lol: ...

Btw, given the fact what the Go Figure cover looks like, I think it rather unlikely now,
that eastwest might possibly have produced this picture disc as a promo for it - that had (again) been clearly asking too much from them ... :lol: ...

:lol: ... so the cassette is official and no vinyls exist (fortunately, looking at that cover) ... :eek: :lol: ...

And the picture disc is the heroic job of some unknown bootleggers calling themselves
(like so many others) "Merciful Release" ... :lol: ... a mercy, indeed, since I like that recording ... ;D ;D ;D ...
