Ingram, Hemsley and Taylor cooperation

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.

It may be as old as HL and the Net, but lurking through another topic (the one about getting the permission for using TSOM song in shot film) and pointed there http://repertoire.bmi.com/ , I checked for the obvious artist/composer. What I found was something new for me. And it is a cooperation of Andrew Harvey William Taylor and Gordon (Richard Paul) Ingram and Cameron Peter Hemsley. The last two are only connected to songs written by all three gentlemen. Now, my clue is obvious and infamous SSV and "Go figure".
I checek for those guys and Mr. Ingram was a nice chap; I do get a joke. While Mr. Hemsley seems don't exist at all. And clue, even the smallest?

Interesting... So we're hypothesising that SSV was entirely Eldritch on his own, and that he made up the names of two co-conspirators to help him out of a legal wrangle with WEA?

It does sound feasible. Especially given that his choice of name for one partner is a reference to an armaments manufacturer.

Re: Cameron Peter Hemsley. Maybe a mashup of these two people:

Or maybe it was just a bloke he met in the tinned fruit aisle at Asda...







We're in danger of disappearing down the rabbit hole here :lol: We'll (probably) never know.

I had thought that Peter Bellendir (ex Xmal Deutschland) was the co-conspirator in SSV. :?
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

Has :von: been moonlighting on the dark side of CBBC again..?

Nice find, Bartek... :notworthy: ...

However, I don't think it's got anything to do with SSV as none of the song titles is listed. Maybe some Eldritch project that didn't make it to see the light of day ... or songs that were intended for someone else. Looking at many of those titles they look more like a Gary Moore release than anything to me. Not all of them, though.

This track also involves Craig Adams ... and this one, too

Also interesting: YCBTO is not listed. There is a track called TV Preacher, though ... :lol: ...

That was just, as i wrote that, my wild assumption, speculation. But, thanks to link posted by Our furher here, it's getting more interesting (or simple). It's a crime it's a song by The Jazz Devils, Andrew Taylor played on ... harmonica and sung in that song. The same goes with Out of the dark. Looks that someone mixed That Andrew Harvey William Taylor with some dude who happen to have the same first and last (but not always) name.
The Jazz Devils ‎– Hard Roads (album) and The Jazz Devils - Out Of The Dark (album) with songs "written" by A.E.
mystery solved, now back to drinking tea. Thanks QB for help.

Wasn't Romeo Down labelled as Flood III on some early bootlegs while nobody knew the proper name yet?

And GEGEN DIE WAND-BG CUES might just be Temple Of Love (the song was in the film soundtrack, wasn't it?).

EDIT:
Indeed. The Jazz Devils line-up (according to rateyourmusic.com):
Andy Taylor (vocals, harmonica), Peter Hemsley (drums, percussion), Graham Ingram (bass, keyboards)

Yep.
Any more of that and we'll be round your front door with the quick-setting whitewash and the shaved monkey.
