Hi mates,
At first - sorry, couldn't decide would it be in the Trading topic or here... :innocent:
Well, my question is - could anybody tell me a story behind that item:
The CD single "Doctor Jeep" and "Sandstorm" released by EastWest (with no Merciful Release logo) in 1993?
It has no jewel case - just a grey cardboard cover with title "cdBACKtrax".

So - that was my question - why, how etc this one was released?
Promo? For what - A Slight Case...?

And another topic would be - I have (due to a misunderstanding) 2 copies (i. e. not copies but original CD-s) of this.
So it is to swap for any other Sisters item (not for sale).
Unfortunately I havn't got the final answer from another collector to whom I offered it... But I hope to get the answer soon...

yes, only this one.

What I can't understand... why Doctor Jeep and Sandstorm. It's not like they are two of the best Sisters songs...

I've got a feeling backtrax also released a very badly-produced interview with Eldritch on some picture disc 7-inchers (oo-er) in a crappy plastic presentation wallet; I know these things actually exist, but I may be wrong about them being on backtrax.

Aha! Now then, that's what it was!
Cheers Pikkrong.
