Arguably one of the best and definitely the most rare and mysterious of the D&S compilations, though the interview w/ label boss Michael Jesch did shed some light on certain matters: - Most copies came on red vinyl - both translucent and opaque versions exist - though some have streaks of black and some are even full black vinyl. - No sleeves were made, but a promo-sheet/insert was instead produced for each disc, very seldom seen among the precious few occuring copies nowdays*. - 1000x2 copies were pressed and distributed evenly between the bands, to be used for promotion. Note that this means these records were hardly ever distributed as a Double-LP set, in turn explaining why the existance of the C+D-sides disc was practically unknown among collectors until the mid 00's. In light of this, one could argue weather this release should be considered a DLP at all..? * = PLEASE GET IN CONTACT W/ US IF YOU CAN SUPPLY HI-RES SCANS! |
