Title: Lets get the LIES deal straight
Post by: Nytunz on March 23, 2007, 11:34:54 AM
Today i found LIES on a bookstore which sells used CDs... The version i found had the UNCENSORED booklet.
When did they censor the booklet? And why?
Now i have bouth.. :D
And why are there stars behind the track listing on the actual CD?
Is it hard to get this version today?


Thanks!

Ok, i found out the stars on the CD.. Two stars produced by Mike Clink, One Star, produced by Guns N Roses

I saw a version at a used CD store with the original "Wife beating..." cover years ago. I'm still kicking myself for not buying it!

my understanding is that they all have the same cover art, its just the naked insert is now censored. the pic above is just the bog standard cover art to my knowledge

Apart from the "Wife beating has been around for 10,000 years" bit at the bottom.

yeah, the "wife beating" was a first press, then replaced with "lies*lies*lies" on later pressings.
actually i found a copy of the original cover in Paris, pretty cheap, for 5 euros or something. brasilian (or all south america?) pressings still have the original cover, but the colour of the album is more yellow, like it spent too much time on the sun. they also still have the original appetite cover on their current pressings.

Also, 'Elephant gives birth to midget' is 'Ladies, welcome to the dark ages' on the original.

ive got all three originals with uncensored sleeve, but the tape has a different cover...without the wife beating.
does a copy exist with the wife beating slogan or is it just vinyl and cd...ive got 2 tapes and their both the same?
as you can see the tape insert has? "elephant gives birth" but has the uncensored pic with no "wife beating"

A cassette with the banned cover does exist, Almost Famous has one. However there are two versions.

if the re-issue is elephant gives birth, then why are some uncensored when the wife beating got censored?  ???

That's exactly what I was thinkin' :P

"JESSICA HAHN
The woman who caused the fall from grace of televangelist Jim Bakker.
Photograph signed: "With Love/Jessica/Hahn". B/w, 8x10 overall, image 6?x7? (one surface). On March 19, 1987, TV evangelist Reverend Jim Bakker resigned from his ministry after admitting to a 1980 extramarital affair with church secretary Jessica Hahn. The millionaire founder of PTL said that Hahn was paid $265,000 to keep her quiet."
