Moving Shadows In A Land Of Darkness - Wooden Box

Release Notes

• Label: K.R.Ü.M.E.L. Records

• Catalogue#: ON PD 2323

• Format: 12" vinyl LP, Picture Disc

• Released: 1994 (Italy)

Remarks

• Limited edition of 200 copies, the first 20 of which came in a handmade wooden box.

• The other 180 copies come in a transparent plastic sleeve.

• A flyer showing the Under The Gun theme and detailing the track list is included in all issues.

• On the flyer, there are several (spelling) mistakes. Most importantly, the recording date of Track A5 - Knockin' On Heaven's Door - was actually 15.05.1985, Gothenburg not "Goethebourg", instead of 16.05.1985. The song was neither played on the 16th at Vikateatret, Oslo nor on the 17th at Kolingsborg Club, Stockholm, the two other Swedish dates of that tour.
  

• The credits for the songs given on Discogs are partly wrong (Silver Machine) or incomplete (Comfortably Numb), (Stop Draggin' My Heart Around). Crediting Come Together to Chris Cornell is simply false. Chris Cornell did only cover The Beatles' Come Together.

• The vinyl on side A as well as the flyer note:
  "a carter/.rizla. production for K.R.Ü.M.E.L. records 1994"

• Vinyl side B notes:
  - side a (that side): the original mercy     side b (this side) the years after the highlights

Sources

• Side A is subtitled The Original Mercy and was recorded live at various concerts during 1983 - 1985

• Side B is subtitled The Years After The Highlights and was recorded live at various concerts during 1991 - 1993
