About Me

One of the few unknown musical acts who were part of Brian Epstien's stable of stars, The Sisters of Mersey were signed by the "Nemporer" on the urgings of John Lennon, who had caught their act at various music venues in Hamburg, Germany in 1961.Cuter, and certainly a lot more rocking then that coatcheck girl from the Cavern, that he had had in mind, the "Nemporer" took his chances with the "Sisters".Though they never acquired a hit single, their live show in both the cities of Hamburg and Liverpool are legendary.By the time the Sisters had broken up, they had all been granted refugee status in Canada on compassionate grounds where they all continue to live unbeknownst to each other; Sister Jenn married a proctologist and Sister Louise moved in with a handsome yet unsuccessful haberdasher. Brother Dan's whereabouts remain a mystery.Please feel free to download these songs as they are unearthed. There are many two track and four track tapes, so the songs will be rotated on a regular basis. Just keep checking back from time to time. WRITE or POST A COMMENT.

Soldier of Love September 23, 1961

Well, as it turns out only one track of the two tracks was working, so this track is recorded in super mono. It will be the flipside of our new single. The gents at Kensington seem to dig it.
