Enter the Sisters is a pre- "some girls....." bootleg compilation of merciful release stuff.i'm pretty sure the verrsions thereon are standard .


saints and martyrs is a bit like an lp version of "the last magician of rational thought" with a couple of other odds and sods thrown in.

The demos and stuff are all available through the weeding section.

On another note but a bit the same:

I have a tape here from 1984, Pallieterhal, Lier, Belgium.

Sound is really s**t, but maybe for the completists this is not an issue ;)

I bought it a couple of years ago, because Lier is the place I live now. And I was too young then to go see them live.

If enough people are interested, I will suck the tape into my Big Machine and see what I can do with the sound.

I'm not into weeding at all, but for a good cause one can do something out of the ordinary eh Bobbie? ;D

IZ.

As a sidenote, Enter the Sisters was being sold in ordinary record stores - who'd never deal with bootlegs otherwise - where I lived in the late eighties, pretty much as an official release. I have no idea why. It didn't even look remotely official, did it?

i remember that too.it was late '87ish IIRC.and no,it didn't look at all official-front cover being a blue "walk away" cover and no MR head/star anywhere.it was being sold as an import,but wasn't brain eaters or a major,so it was fairly obviously illegit.at £4 i wish i'ld have gotten a few now!

AFAIK, it was a semi-official release.

Black Swan released the whole load normally, and since they were a real record label (as opposed to, say, Pallazograssi), it was treated as a real release, because to them, it was.

Just, they never got permission from the Sisters for the release.

Does it matter? We all know that Von controls the production and distribution of the bootlegs anyway :innocent:

having just read Dark's post elsewhere re. his "last magician ....,i realised that the above statement is incorrect.what i meant to say was:

"saints and martyrs" is a bit like an lp version of "victims of circumstance" (eldritch singing "garden of delight" etc.) with a few other odd and sods thrown in

my apologies. :oops: :innocent:
