Seventeen years

While I don't know the exact date, it occurs to me that the last Sisters release,
Under The Gun, came out in August 1993, i.e. more than 17 years ago. Inspired by the
Duke Nukem Forever list...
Seventeen years is longer than:
- The whole of The Beatles' recording career. Twice over. (1962-1970)
- The gap between Return Of The Jedi and The Phantom Menace (1983-1999)
Any more?

My Bloody Valentine are still the ones to beat with this, though.

Didn't it take Ahole Rose 17 years to pull Chinese Democracy out of his rectum?

Jesus traveled seventeen years for his preparation before his public ministry,aaaand Joseph was seventeen years old when he was sold by his brothers and escorted in Egypt. (Gn 37,2)

The Dolls second album came out in 1974, the third not coming out until 2006. I offer this as a glimmer of hope.
Another small comfort. Since Bolan died in 1977 there has been approx 10 CDs released of new material and at least 15 CDs of studio outtakes - all you have to do is live longer than Eldo.

Indeed! many bigger musical 'hatchets' have been buried. People make up and be friends/share battle scars etc. Why baldy is still peddling his shit sans product is beyond ma ken.

s**t sans product
If they do ever get round to releasing a legit live album - it's as good a title as any

I wonder if Kate Bush fans would trade less product for more tours...

Fair point.
Another one: in the time since the Sisters last released a record, both The X-Files and Friends did their full runs...

That's probably only half as long as the time that the Reptile House has been under construction (
