A 7" vinyl bootleg of alledgedly Japanese origin ...
Release Notes
- Label: Wasted Buchs 08/15
- Catalogue#: P-13612
- Matrix #s:
- Side A: WASTED BUCHS 08/15 /A et
- Side B: WASTED BUCHS 08/15 /B et
- Format: 7" vinyl single
- Released: 1987 (Germany)
Sources
- Both tracks are Floodland Demos.
Tracks
| A Lucretia, My Reflection | 2:10 |
| B Flood I | 3:25 |
Remarks
- Great sound quality
- A limited edtion of 200 copies in total
- The single comes in a hand-numbered cover with a folded white cardboard inner sleeve
- The back cover gives the lyrics to Lucretia, My Reflection in English and Japanese language
- In fact, this is a German release. The title on the cover front and the Lucretia lyrics
on the back cover in Japanese characters are rather meant to impress potential customers of various sorts...
- The same accounts for all the Merciful Release and WEA logos. Although the artwork of present release
reminds strongly of the Dominion single, this is a rare, but not an official release!
- Available on medium blue and light blue vinyl, while colours of both versions vary slightly as well.
- The label on side A shows a picture detail from an unknown painting in levels of grey
- The label on side B states track A (Lucretia) as Empire Down and track B (Flood I) as Water
- Some testpressings and acetats do exist, see down below ...
Regular Vinyl Colours
The actual colour of the medium blue vinyl is hard to get in a photo.
Insofar you find here - as an indicator - a comparison with the Remasters Sampler.
For recent price developments see sistersbootlegs/Floodland Demos ...

1. Testpressings

though in reverse order and with partly different song titles:
- Side A - Flood I is noted as Empire Down
