I just won the Japanese CD on Ebay for $230.
It was a crazy bidding war!

That's a lot of money. Congratulations!

I have it on cd. I think my copy was a dj/promo cd.

I'll have to dig it up now.

I had it on cassette but my housemate's cat pissed on it

I have Jill Jones with Obi strip though

I was actually bracing for a fishslap.

no I rather smash people with a lollypop

ZombieKitten said:

It does look like a lollipop!

johnart said:

I didn't think promo CDs existed for this album.

ZombieKitten said:

I won't buy Japanese imports if domestic copies exist. Support our boys and all that.

But being in Oz, it's probably easier to get a Japanese copy than a U.S. edition.

It's makin me nuts. I'm trying to find it.

johnart said:

Pics please if you find it.

squirrelgrease said:

Will do. I'm 99% positive there was something like "DJ something or other" on the label of mine.

johnart said:

Uh-huh. I'll believe it when I see the pics.

sextonseven said:

I'm lookin. I swear I'm lookin.

I don't know what the story was there certainly was no local version it took 6 months from the day I ordered it before it arrived - we are talking looooong ago before the internet and when compact discs said COMPACT DISC on them prominently (in case you weren't sure)

They tried to get it from anywhere - I didn't care where it was from.

ynot69 said:

awesome! anybody what does the jill jones cd goes for these days?

ynot69 said:

Congrats!

johnart said:

Still haven't found it, eh? I wonder why?

ZombieKitten said:

I remember ordering hard to find goth CDs from overseas through the mail in the early 90s. It was such a complicated process of buying an international money order and mailing it to some address in the midwest which would then send the money to the recipient overseas. A few times I don't think I got anything for my money.

$50?

sextonseven said:

I will have you know that you have me turnin my house upside down.
With a raging toothache and all.

I will find it eventually.

johnart said:

I should start taking bets.

Sorry about the toothache though.

sextonseven said:

FOUND IT!

Don't take bets.
So I guess it's far from being anything "official" but at least I didn't lose my mind completely remembering it said "DJ PROMO" on it.

Sex Shooter is 7:01 version.
I got it on ebay about 3-4 years ago. And I certainly did not pay a lot. (I'm not usually concerned with collectors items, just having the music).

^ John, you crazy bastard.

sextonseven said:

thats all i could get for it? i might as well keep it lol

johnart said:

Very sketchy.

How was the long version of "Sex Shooter" sandwiched in between "Happy Birthday Mr. Christian" and "Blue Limousine"? On the original album, the short version is beat matched so the entire first side plays without any breaks.

^ I think johnart knows it's a fake.

that long extended 12" version of "Sex Shooter" is HOT! I love this part...

A-P-O-L-L-O-N-I-A (you must all live for the dawn)
no girls' body can compete with mine
no girls' rap can top my lines
no girls' kiss can ring your chimes
come on boy let's make some ti...ime

sex shooter....whoa oh oh
sex shooter...whoa oh oh
sex shooter....whoa oh oh
sex shooter!

Come on kiss the gun,ooh!
