OK. We've all seen things on E Bay but what is the rarest Sisters item available?

The next Album. Only one copy exists and we'd need to employ the methodology suggested by the original Sisters' logo to get at it...

I think still the first two singles. I haven't seen these for sale very much over the past few years.

All the rest of the stuff hasn't been that hard to track down (although I'm still trying to find a copy of the UK Lucretia 12". Got a German one and there are loads of UK 7" out there, but can't see a UK 12" one. Maybe I'm just looking in the wrong places).

13.06.1981 live in Leeds and the other recordings around this one.

Andrew Eldritch. Can be glimpsed (through the smoke) about ten out of every 365 days. Your vinyl you can look at daily.

Rather joke. Probably don't exist, but it was in my 6 birthday Don't lost hope, maybe someday, someday...

'Cept at the Blank Canvas in Leeds, whenever it was in April last year - the Saturday night.

Didn't see the f*cker the entire evening...was he even there??

Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No it's an ageing g*th 'icon' who can't be arsed anymore...and would rather hide - even from the few people left who give a f*ck

*sigh*

I think the Damage Done acetate is the rarest...

Probaby the Tape of The Sisterhood doing this corrosion.

Matt

which version

Walk Away + flexi - which isn't *that* rare, but still nice.

I was going to say . After all there's only one of him

And he was definitely there on the Saturday night. I saw him in the audience for the support band anyway!

Rarest I have is number 37 (or something) of the original 225 Saints and Martyrs, but I'm sure that's relatively common round here (although number 37 sure ain't cos there was only one of them). I have a soundboard cassette of Dublin '97 too, though, but that doesn't really count does it?

Oh, and I had a cassette of Aachen '85 once, but I lost that ages ago.

Is that supposed to be rare then?

One rare item would be Screaming Abdabs demo tape with Eldritch on drums. Screaming Abdabs supported the Sisters at Leeds Brannigans on 2.10.81 and the keyboard player told me they recorded a demo tape with Eldritch on drums. Sadly he no longer has a copy of the tape and has lost touch with the other members of the band long ago, but a copy of the tape might exist somewhere.

Blimey! I wonder if this demo was recorded before or after the Damage Done single?

DD was recorded/released before they ever played live, so it seems it would have been after.

Aachen '85 sure ain't rare (it I had it at the time it couldn't have been!), but I never seen it offered on any traders lists, so the inevitable must be assumed.

ahem...

taking a leaf from my webmeister's book

I have a copy of the poster as well but never heard of a live tape too

There is no live tape. Yeh the poster came from me. I just upped it to the imagebank, so y'all can see it as soon as Quiffy does the business. (My first attempt messed up so delete that one.)

Cool.

I also added Flyer for York Vanbrugh 15.10.82, and Poster for Paradiso Amsterdam 28.8.83.

Oh, they're still on my webspace, I assumed they'd be transferred to here (If you saw my first attempt you'll have seen why I can't upload with browser-based uploaders!)

Dan , got you the original of Amsterdam poster/York flyer ?
have you other posters to show up ? looking amazing

My Amsterdam poster is original (sortof). Some shop in Leeds was selling them in the late 80's. Reprints most likely cos they were really cheap.

I did have the original York flyer but I swapped it with Robin. I'd already given him a photocopy (which looks better than the original), but it seemed the only way to make him give up "rare" stuff.
