The fabled Sisterhood demo version of 'This Corrosion'

Eric was touting copies of these recordings about 2/3 years ago! I have the proof so that means that there are more than 2 copies that exist!

To add to this Eldritch states he was working on This Corrosion with the Sisterhood and demos must exist,i was sent a tape still got somewhere that was supposedly Sisterhood demos,it did not include Corrosion but did have instrumentals of a couple of tracks Finland Red i think was one? sounds like track before vocals added etc? Andrew Pinnell is the only guy i was aware of who had got/heard etc the Corrosion Sisterhood versions and vocal was Ray?????

I asked him about this (yesterday). He received it from James Ray.

Strange thing is: PIB says that there are two versions. Robin spoke of six versions!

Thread necromancy...

Have the famous "6 versions from one session" ever surfaced?

Any news or info?

Maybe PiB.

You know what you know and what you have.

I know what I know and what I have.

In retrospect we all should have taken our 7" (and stubs and passes and 'secrets') as chips to Vegas.

Winner takes all.

That would have been fun.

When the mists clear and all are covered in Hot Dog, then we shall rise and reverberate (but not all at once)

Demo Schmemo :eek:

I'm waiting for the Rolf Harris version :urff:

Aye :evil:
Ur, no, well I don't anyway. Please spill the beans.

Here is the info that I posted in another topic last week:

from a collectors list received back in 1999:

-'Hull Fairview Studio July 1986'
The very first This Corrosion demos, made during the writing of the song and meant to be the second Sisterhood single. Engineered by Roy Neave who also did the James Ray first records. Only 1 (!!!) tape is in existing and it comes from a former roommate of James Ray and also includes a by James Ray typed insert paper. Both James Ray and Andrew Pinnell guaranteed me that the tape is genuine and the only existing copy!
-this corrosion:
1 sung by James Ray
2 sung by James Ray and Andrew Eldritch
3 sung by James Ray
4 duet with Lucas Fox, Andrew Eldritch and James Ray
5 duet with Andrew Eldritch and James Ray
6 sung by Andrew Eldritch
-the B-side contains some very rare remixes of 'Mexico Sundown Blues' that are never released and were made on the same date at the same studio!
- All 'This Corrosion'-versions are unknown to anybody and in a much heavier style, without female voice. The lyrics are not like the final 'Floodland'-song and most of the 6 demos are unfinished!!
Must be the rarest Sisters-tape ever!'


I'd simply like to get hold of a complete & clean copy of the US College Radio version - the one on that TC versions weed I did last year is crap!
Is this the place I used to know as Fatherland?

Does anyone know anyone who actually has it?

What would one have to part with in order to obtain a copy? :evil:

Why won't some fucker just weed it? :lol:
Seen the references on Dominion in 1998 and all.....I for one am not too bothered.... However...how can one obtain a copy of the WEA promobox? ;-)

Because this thread isn't recondite enough.
