The Sisters EP

The Sisters EP was released by Pulp in 1994 and was their third single released after the band signed to Island Records and reached number 19 in the UK charts, their highest chart position at the time.

Overview

"Babies" was originally released as a single on the Gift record label in 1992 - the version on this EP is an edited and remixed version. The other three tracks were recorded during the His 'n' Hers sessions, but were not included on that album. The entire single was re-released for the first time on His 'n' Hers' 2006 2-disc deluxe edition re-issue.

Ed Buller is the producer of "His 'n' Hers", "Your Sister's Clothes" and "Seconds"; however the producer of "Babies" is less certain. But the credits for 2006 re-issue of His 'n' Hers which includes "Babies" does not mention another producer for the track (CD1 track 5) despite including a number of tracks as exceptions for other reasons.

The songs

"Babies" is a song about the narrator and his relationship with two sisters. The two sisters are revisited in the EP's second track "Your Sister's Clothes" with the younger sister getting revenge, both with the man, and by wearing her elder sister's clothes and making fun of them.

The Sisters (play)

The Sisters is a Caroline stage play, a comedy written by James Shirley. It was the last of Shirley's plays performed in London prior to the closing of the theatres in September 1642, at the start of the English Civil War. "Slight in substance, The Sisters is excellent in matter of technique, and especially in...structural unity...."

Date, performance, publication

The play was licensed for performance by Sir Henry Herbert, the Master of the Revels, on 26 April 1642 and acted by the King's Men at the Blackfriars Theatre later in the year. The play was first printed in an octavo volume with five other Shirley dramas, published by Humphrey Moseley and Humphrey Robinson in 1653 and titled Six New Plays. In that volume, the play is dedicated to William Paulet, esq., and is preceded by verses written by Shirley in praise of Shakespeare, Fletcher, and Jonson.

The prompt book

The play was revived in the Restoration era by Sir Thomas Killigrew and his King's Company, c. 1668–70. The copy of the play that served as the production's prompt book has survived, in the collection of Sion College. It is a copy of the 1653 Six New Plays, though only the text of The Sisters was annotated by Charles Booth, the King's Company prompter. The annotations reveal specific details of the revival production's staging (including music cues and the prompter's whistle signals for scenery changes), and mention fifteen members of the company by name, including Nell Gwyn and Margaret Hughes.
