Remarks - NOTE: This part needs revision which will follow soon ...

• This bootleg exists in two editions.

• The first edition comes in a folded paper cover with b/w artwork and with yellow, i.e. orange labels

• The second edition is limited to 100 copies and is accompanied by a booklet in German language.
  The covers are the common hardpaper ones and show the same b/w artwork as the first edition.
  They have a sticker on the front saying: Limited edition of 100 copies free with special booklet.
  Labels are mostly black with a Merciful Release logo, although this is not an official release, or yellow.

• Vinyls with 'A' and 'B' labels seem to exist as well.

• Further more there is a radio broadcast promo edition by DIR Broadcasting on their very own
  King Biscuit Label. These copies look very similar to the first edition. Labels say, however:
  "This program is soley for the one-time broadcast use of stations cleared
   by DIR Broadcasting on the designated date and time
   scheduled by the network. It must be returned
   to DIR network immediately after airing."
   And: "for radio play only (Not for sale)"

• There is no mention, whatsoever, of the band or the tracks on the labels.

Sources

• Tracks A1 - A3 are demos.

• Tracks A4 + A5 were recorded live at the Gala, Norwich in 1983.

• Tracks B1 - B6 were recorded live at Manchester University in 1984

• Jolene and Adrenochrome are the same versions as those found on the 7"-bootleg Nightmares.

• Everything from Knockin' On Heaven's Door until Louie Louie is the often-bootlegged medley from 1984.
  The medley is essentially Knockin' to Purple Haze though, followed by a second or two's pause, then
  starting an instrumental version of Stairway To Heaven and culminating in the Ghostrider medley with
  a version of Louie Louie at the end.
