Apple lossless

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.

For any Apple Music users, it looks like most of the Sisters back catalogue has been upgraded to lossless.

My ears can't hear much of a difference, but there you go.

Anything on the version of the FALAA mixes used, or if they've got the correct '84 version of Body Electric on Body & Soul? They're the most common mistakes with the various streaming/digital services. Also that only the shortened vinyl versions of several Floodland tracks have been available for quite some time, so, for instance, Driven Like the Snow has been missing it's long intro.
If I told them once, I told them a hundred times to put 'Spinal Tap' first and 'Puppet Show' last.

He'll get the occasional penny for Reptile House, as I believe he retained his rights there, but he flogged the rest a few years back, so he made his own bed in this instance.

fair comment but as i have a problem with most of these cunts anyway -yootoob, spotify, itunes etc- and i am better at digital piracy than they are at stopping it, i have no problem with not buying the things i want ; safe in the knowledge that i'm not taking money out of vons cats mouths


EDIT: btw i am getting too lazy to bypass the swear filter all the time but can we have one that asteriskifies things properly? cunts is swear filtered to c**t for example, which is incorrect.
