Remarks

Very good sound quality
Released in two limited editions, all of which have Merciful Release labels.
All come in a glossy cover and with black card inner sleeves.
It is not known, how many copies of each were exactly issued, around 300 seems likely.
Nonetheless, the original version is far more rare than the second issue.
The original edition has record 1 in black vinyl and record 2 in transparent multicoloured vinyl.
The second edition consists of two multicoloured vinyls in different colours.
At least two different versions are known to exist:
- 1 x mulitcoloured relatively clear vinyl + 1 x multicoloured yellow vinyl
- 1 x multicoloured blue/green vinyl + 1 x multicoloured yellow vinyl
Versions with two black vinyls are said to exist as well.
Evidence for these could not be found as yet.
