Hlia, do you know the differences of these pressings my friend?

edit:I mean in numbers!
Only thing i know is that the one on the right is the original and much rarer edition.

I have it too and I try to find how many copies were pressed, because I rarely see it!

Same album, left one is the french edition, right one the australian private pressing with the original band name.

I'd also like to contribute on this thread with DESTRUCTION "Sentence of death" EP, but for some reason I don't have the cheap EU pressing, but only the US one.

Can someone else fix this problem for me?

Here's one of my favorite Metal EPs of all time:

Plus the two different WASTED versions.

Where's the difference except the promo sticker (WASTED)?

Different labels and the right one was on purple vinyl.

I was sure you were saying something like that but the thread-title says "Cover variations / Different Covers" so that is why I was asking.

regular cover and gatefold cover for the Metal Battle Sampler only released in Holland, this one I love one of my most precious records with the gatefold sleeve...

A boring sampler with no exlusive songs as your most precious record? Are you drunk?

collecting has nothing to with monetary value Mr. Kuntz....for me this is TOP 5 TOP item....try to find it!

The french and the english version of Sortilege.
The 2 Shakin Street LP's are different recordings from the same year (1978).
The left is a "heavy" production and the right more a "rock" production.

Rare or not, it is one of the worst covers I have ever seen

The Denver version is pretty awesome.
