Revision as of 00:50, 10 June 2018

This is a quite well made replica of the original Damage Done 7" single and the first one that surfaced at the time.

This page is Work in Progress and going to be extended as soon as ever possible


Release Notes

  • Label: unknown
  • Catalogue#: MR7
  • Format: 7" vinyl single
  • Released: in the early 1980s (Japan)


Remarks

  • The bootleg shows basically all the features of the original including the initial Merciful Release logo and the original catalogue#
  • However, the thin matt paper sleeves have a thumb cut of only 2 1/4" length compared to the 4" thumb cuts of the original
  • In addition and more importantly, the cover print is slightly darker than the original and the photo on the cover front
is cut off, so that the cross on top of the church is out of view.
  • The labels, too, look slightly more black than the original brownish-black ones and are all placed on the wrong side.
  • Run-outs do also differ and have surfaced in two versions:
Side A, hand-etched: PAE-03A / Side B, hand-etched: PAE-03B (9B erased)
Side A, hand-etched: PAE-03A FOR SPIGGY / Side B, hand-etched: PAE-03B
  • We recommend you read everything about the differences between the original and the present Japanese fake in the Heartland Photo Gallery
under F Is For Fake. Scans of the original and fake Damage Done single, provided by Heartland Forum user Y, along with comments on
how to tell the difference are also available in the Photo Gallery under Damage Done.
