Rocknee question

Can anyone confirm that there are indeed only 120 copies being made of the Rocknee 12" as claimed in the ebay auction below?

It's pretty nice Melodic US Metal with a little Glam influence, I can only recommend it, but if there are just 120 copies pressed it would rise in the Militia league.

And what about the info?
This thread wasn't made for selling the record. lol
Btw. your copy has even an insert that my copy did't have and I bought it sealed a couple of years ago!

A lot of these "sealed" records are actually resealed...
Either way, I'm not impressed with this band. Those vocals are awful.

I've never heard it, so I can't comment on the music. And I have no idea if the "120 copies pressed" statement is valid or not. This is however the first copy I've seen for sale. Maybe John / glockose knows more?

Avenger also found Garcia & Garcia is crap ... so ...
I could post a track of Rocknee but I guess it's more exciting for you to discover their sound when you play the record.
That's at least for myself the best on buying unknown local records ...

I didn't buy it if that's what you're implying. I just noticed it sold shortly after this thread was started.

I don't know about the pressing number, but to be honest those 120 seem a bit unrealistic too me....I have seen it way too often for this small number....but who knows?

Unfortunately it really looks like that the Rocknee 12" was indeed pressed in that limited number of copies. This is what the seller answered me when I asked him where he does the info from:
"NO I READ AN ARTICLE ABOUT 5 YEARS AGO ABOUT THEM AND THAT WAS MENTIONED"
