In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall - 7" Cover (front)


This 7" bootleg single is the second issue and follow-up pressing of A Merciless Release

and was produced and released at the same time, by the same label and features the same tracks.

Due to the print on the back cover, In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall is widely known

as Knocking On Heaven's Door - Emma.

Because of the track list, this is at times, however, also the case for A Merciless Release.

In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall - 7" Cover (back)


Release Notes

  • Label: Scatterbrainchild Records ‎
  • Catalogue#: SR-002
  • Format: 7" vinyl single
  • Released: Jan 1987 (US)



Remarks

  • Hand-numbered limited edition of 200 copies.
  • B/w wrap-around paper cover in poor printing quality showing a picture of the band (1983 line-up)
looking at a leather jacket that is hanging from a wardrobe and has their bandname and logo on the back
  • The cover enfolds the single on the back side only halfway up, so the bootleg is delivered in a plastic jacket.
The bootleg is delivered in a plastic jacket.
  • Back Cover Notes:
    WESTMINSTER
Archibald Constable & Co Ltd         6d.
 2 WHITEHALL GARDENS
  • Track A is wrongly noted as KNOCKING ON HEAVEN'S DOOR on the cover back and
even as KNOCKING ON HEAVENS DOOR on the a-side label of the vinyl missing the apostrophes.
  • The records are pressed either on clear yellow vinyl coming with golden-coloured labels or on translucent blue vinyl
with yellow labels. Black vinyls with golden-coloured labels are also said to exist, but might well be Merciless Release pressings, initially.
No picture has been seen of a Live-At-The-Royal-Albert-Hall black vinyl so far.
  • The labels of both issues (yellow and blue) and on both sides give the label name "Scatterbrainchild Records",
the bandname SISTERS OF MERCY (without the definite article), track title, track duration (partly wrong), and
the running speed as 33 ⅓ RPM, which is unusual for a 7" single.

  • This recording was issued before as a limited edition of 500 copies on the 7" vinyl bootleg A Merciless Release by the same label and with the same catalogue#, but in a different, somewhat more elaborated sleeve. That bootleg was mainly pressed on clear yellow and clear orange vinyl with golden-coloured labels that have the same print as given here. Very dark purple or black pressing have also been seen. Over time, through swaps between traders and collectors, some of the vinyls made it into the cover of the respective other edition, which explains the why black vinyls have occasionally been seen with In Concert At The Royal Albert Hall covers and blue ones with A ´Merciful Release covers.
