Vielen Dank, Percy. Ehrlich gesagt, verlor sich für mich nach 1991 auch jede Spur. Vorher ist die Band noch regelmäßig in Hamburg aufgetreten…die Biker-Band war live eine ziemliche Wucht. Und nach „Nun Permanent“ kam nix mehr.

Aus Interesse habe ich mal bei Wikipedia recherchiert. Dort ist zu lesen:

„While releasing their third album Nun Permanent (produced by Mick Ronson) in winter 1991 their record company went bankrupt and could no longer deliver copies of the album. Being without a record company The Leather Nun continued to play gigs for a few years, but never got so successful again. The group finally broke up in 1995, but has reunited on some occasions since then. In 2005 they had a short comeback, but did not release any new albums.

Commemorating the 30th Anniversary of Leather Nun, Jonas Almquist formed a tribute band in 2009 with celeb Swedish rock musicians (amongst them guitarist Thomas Silver of Hardcore Superstar), under the name Leather Nun: Reloaded. In native Gothenburg on 12 September 2009 they played their last gig, with guestappearences by original Leather Nun-members. Jonas Almquist has now focused on his new band project Godtherapy…“
