Probably best way to master it was to replicate state of mind at the time of the recording!

Interesting that as Bilbo (Dennis Blackham)at Tape One mastered Body Electric, Porky must have got one hell of a shock when he first heard Alice/Floorshow prior to mastering it!

Of course :wink:

Bought myself a copy and will check out the ROGI, paper quality, etc. once I receive the items and then post the results here.

Hopefully, the reissues will be easy to recognise :urff:
Already received?

a mate of mine bought the alice white vinyl/white sleeve repro 7" today - £6 from a market stall in huddersfield

i've seen it and it looks great. the sleeve is on very good quality card, although the artwork on the clearly back says "2009" under the MR head/star logo.

the labels look pretty authentic too.

he's not heard it yet though so have no idea what the quality of audio pressing is like.

i gather the DD is the same - good quality card with "2009" clearly visible

i don't think it's set out to fool anyone into thinking they are originals... but then, i don't really know what they are for either :| :lol:

Yes, the artwork seem to be good quality card with glossy sleeves, although I haven't received my copy, see the link below:

Clicky

So the reissues should be easily to recognise 8)

Yes, they are! I received my copy of the Damage Done reissue and I must say it is very well done. I'm glad to finally own a copy after nearly 20 years of searching... okay, it ain't the real thing, but it comes close enough (for now ;D ).

Glossy sleeve indeed, cross on top of church & all and 2009 printed on the back. Also nice to see Home of the Hitmen is there in all of its glory. Rogi are different too, so if somebody is able to take this for an original one then they deserve to overpay it massively :wink:

whats the sounds quality like? i'm assuming they've all been taken from the SGWBM cd audio?

I guess so... sound is okay!

I got all four yesterday also and I am very pleased. Seems to be the same people who did the FALAA represses a few years back.

Still can't imagine :von: will be chuffed. These are different from 'live' bootlegs or even demos. The 2009 on the back dosen't change the fact that they're ripping off actual Sisters products, i.e. songs. I can understand that they look good in a collection but still...

Perhaps, he receives part of the revenues ... :roll: ... in that case, I'd even buy one ...

:von: had a hand in certain bootlegs in the past, so maybe in these also.

That one seems unlikely, though it is an interesting thought.

While in the main the presentation looks authentic, I'd suggest that is more to do with copying the official tour program than anything else.

The mixture of fonts is something I'd imagine :von: would not stand for even if he were releasing a bootleg as opposed to an official release.

He has told me several times he hates every bootleg ever made. He tried to compete by making live tracks available on a single and it didn't go well. He also has no desire to release the infamous live video they were shooting for 5 years.
