I was surprised by the comments so far. Not the Sisters, so maybe that explains the dislike. I would have thought that we were talking about Dieter Bohlen.

The Broon record isn't bad per se. It's perfectly competent. Honestly, though, I think it's rather dull and forgettable.

Not quite an ex-Sisters member, but James Ray's various projects are definitely worth a listen.

Always liked Maggie Reilly's Moonlight Shadow! Ok so it wasn't hers exactly...

@but James Ray's various projects are definitely worth a listen

worth a listen ? simply amazing work is more accurate

take my breath away

I second that almost all of James Ray's stuff is fantastic!

Screw you, I was on tour around the South Island of New Zealand and I played the Keepsakes 2 CD retrospective and my tourmates loved it.

Oh yeah, and Berlin's greatest hits as well.

Loving hearing all the James Ray love... also loving that he's got everything he's seemingly ever done available for free on his website. You the man, J Ray!

(Plus that reply he made to the question on these very hallowed boards re how he feels about how great Sisters music is -
"That's a personal opinion that I don't happen to share." Youch! I'm gonna use that response to everything I ever disagree with from now on... )

Mr.E can only dream of doing something as intense as 25men

f.u.c.k Eldo

Ghost Dance " Gathering Dust" & "Stop the world"

and "1995 and nowhere" are great IMO!
Marx (and Engels) rules

...whereas everything mr. hussey touched is pure crap / just a bad, bad rip off of the sisters

... quite my opinion ...

in addition, I really enjoy all the James Ray et al. produce ... ...

I heard some hour ago http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hFd62noJZnM Sigue Sigue Sputnik and their works seems very interesting .
loved that song

Also Bruhn's (Broon) record have some interest but it lucked some in vocals

Marx has some things very interesting to hear

Broon has done some really good stuff in my opinion, a great bridge from the sisters to the more 'neo' goth stuff, if you like the cruxshadows or screaming banshee aircrew or stuff like that, definately a few light similarities

i think my favourite of all 'ex-sisters' is Ghost Dance though

Thank You

Quiffy...........slap yourself on the thighs for not pointing this out earlier

I don't get the James Ray lurve. Over-rated IMO and no-one would give a sh!t if it wasn't for his (tangential) connection to The Sisters.

I understand, and I felt the same way for a long time; I think this is because I'd never heard any of the live recordings. The one live recording I've heard--from 1993, found at Circle's blog, I believe--absolutely floored me. Other than the the Without Conscience 12-inch, most of his studio stuff doesn't hold a candle to the live stuff. It sounds quite weak in comparison. I've still not heard 25 Men yet, but I did think the 4 songs I've heard from James Ray and the Longfolk were spectacular (and not just because of the Simpson's sample).

Or maybe you just don't like it. No sin in that.

I just don't like it. I saw Gangwar live back in the early '90s and... wasn't exactly blown away.

Just my opinion though, and I'm aware it's not shared by a lot of folk on here.

Wouldn't worry about it markfiend - if there's a reason Ray can afford to give his entire back catalogue away for free, it's probably not 'cause he's already made so much dough off it he's been able to retire to his own private Caribbean island...
