Plain "preliminary" cover


NOTE:
A sort of pre-issue item has also surfaced in an online auction.

It came in a plain white "preliminary" sleeve and stated only the bootleg title,

see the picture here on the left (please click into the file for a larger view).

Since we do not have a picture of the actual vinyl, doubts remain whether

this was not just a cover got lost under circumstances uncleared ...



Recording Source

  • During the actual concert the intro to Alice was started twice. Craig Adams' bass quits on first attempt, so the band started again. This incident is excluded from the record.
