A 12" vinyl bootleg that features selected live cuts, quotes and snippets of interviews with Andrew Eldritch recorded during the early 1980s.

The distibution of this item was organized totally diffrent to conventional bootlegs so far. There was a quiz about the Sisters of Mercy added as the inlay to the record. By using the services of modern internet sites, which was in first place the crowdsourced database Discogs, web site users could gain one copy for free by resolving the quiz.
Now, with the end of 2018, there are all copies gone, and the quiz has ended.

The worldwide distribution has finalized this way:

Release Notes

  • Label: rhay creations
  • Catalogue#: rhay 13
  • Format: 12" vinyl LP
  • Released: 2018
  • Production Note: Lathe Cut



Remarks

  • Strictly limited to 20 copies, not numbered.
  • The vinyl is translucent.
  • The label shows a dark cloudy landscape with the word "MASTERPLAN" in big, white letters in the middle.
and the catalogue number is written below in smaller, but also white letters.
The label is identical on both sides.
  • Comes with a black ribbon that adsorbs a black envelope to the cover.
There is also a printed inner cover and the before mentioned inlay.
The envelope contains a dedication postcard, a letter and the rhay creation mail order sheet.
  • The catalogue numbers are messed up. On the label it says correctly "rhay 13", just as it appears on the mail order sheet,
while on the postcard, the inner cover and the inlay they are wrongly stated as rhay 15.



The Quiz
These are the questions and their solutions that compose the four letter code:

  • The first letter of the second word that Andrew says just at the beginning of the gig in Nijmegen, Spring Tour 1984?
Andrew says "Hello there", so the letter is "T". You can proof it on this site.
  • The tenth letter of the name of the first 12" bootleg of the Sisters Of Mercy ever, released way back in 1984?
It is the Psychedelic Session LP, so the letter is "I". Look it up on this site.
  • The fourth letter of the run-out groove on side A of the Anaconda 7" (the additional word to "A PORKY PRIME CUT")?
The Word is "NOTHING", so the word is "H". Check it on Discogs.
  • The letter after the hyphen in the number of years of "Ever after ever more more more" at the 2nd gig ever in Stockholm?
Andrew sings at this concert twenty-six years, so the letter is "S". You can read it on this site.
  • This makes T-H-I-S or S-H-I-T the other way round.
