Heartland

Hi, I know that these sisters tributes are excisting (thanks to Paul's website) but don't know if the list is complete...

A Mercyful Tribute To The Sisters
Monochrome (A Tribute To The Sisters of Mercy)
The Violent Hour
First And Last And Forever

Maybe this was an earlier topic but couldn't found anything...

Tx

I'm sure there's one called "Thank You! (A Tribute, etc...)" as well.

there's one from the Newcastle area too, or did mine eyes and ears fool me?

Not sure what my version is, but it is called A Tribute to The Sisters of Mercy and it has Temple, by My Dying Bridge.

If I may just borrow this for a second...


PISH

"My Dying Bridge"? Ace.

I haven't got any of the tributes. Any good?

Awright! Thanks!
Might give it a listen one day.

Saw them all before but never bought them. I heard awfull cover stuff through the years which does not include Arf's NEVER SUMMER LAND......

I have these:

- A Mercyful Tribute To The Sisters (Tribute Records, Sweden)

- Monochrome, A Tribute To The Sisters of Mercy (SPV, Germany)

- The Violent Hour, A Tribute To The Sisters of Mercy (Equinoxe Records, Germany)

- First And Last And Forever (Locomotive Music, Spain)

- Thank You! A Tribute To The Sisters of Mercy (Angelwings, Germany)

Some coverversions are nice, other versions are absolutely horrible...

Nice input guys, thanks for that!

Remember the best Tribute album can be found on this very forum...

Yeah, I bought First And Last And Forever some years ago, and I have to say its content persuaded me to never buy another tribute album.

I'm not saying it was all bad, but there is so much great music out there and not enough time to give it all as much listening time as it deserves, let alone spending time listening to inferior versions of classic songs.

Paul, you got a picture of the thank You! tribute? Thanks!

Of course my previous comment doesn't include the fine job heartlanders are doing of producing studio versions of unreleased Sisters songs totally different

That was close.

You're telling me

Alice by The Shroud is ace

Sadly, it's one of the few listenable tracks on that cd...

I thought Automatic Head Detonator's version of Black Planet was pretty great. It's a shame they vanished, I'd have liked to hear more.

Seconded It was totally different from the original, which I always like in a cover version!

And thirded
It's a kick ass version of Black Planet and one of the very few 'worthy' covers of a Sisters track

warren suicide's stomp-a-thon reworking of Black Planet and foetus's 'interpretation' of FALAA are the best by far

and don't forget about Lambchop's version of This Corrosion!
Must admit I never heard that Warren Suicide track...

Don't forget Creaming Jesus's Temple of Sh!te

Bus Station Loonies rule BIG time!

Yo Mon!
