Release Notes

  • Label: - none -
  • Catalogue#: MR 7 (imitating the original)
  • Format: 7" vinyl single
  • Released: 2009 (Australia)


Remarks

  • This record was partly distributed as record one within a set of three records, issued in Australia and limited to 1,000 copies, that presented the first three singles on coloured vinyl.
However, some months before the release of that three-singles-set the present Damage Done record was sold already as an individual "re-release" from the UK.
The covers of the UK issue and the Australia set-release differ slightly in tone (and print quality), so maybe the UK-release was a test charge to see how a re-issue as such would sell.
Meanwhile, ever more individual copies surface at a price often higher than the initial price for the whole set.
  • The records run at 45 rpm and come in a glossy sleeve that opens to the side.
  • The covers imitate the original Merciful Release but in a way lower print quality and give the acutal bootleg-release year "2009" beneath the logo.
  • The cover back and the label on the A-side show a painfully poor imitation of the head and star logo
The label on side B of the vinyl is a mere copy from the original issue.
  • Run-outs:
Side A: MR 7 A
Side B: MR 7 B 2
