Comments:

Despite reviews and reports on forums and other sites that this is the first vinyl bootleg for a decade, I don't know if this hype from the manufacturers or dealers , but this is just not true. There are and continue to be both pirate and bootleg vinyl release.

This latest version of the famous never to be 'Sessions' release is reportedly from a well known European Label, who has a reputation for releasing material that runs slow. Many people are unhappy at both the medium and content believing this to be little more than extensive padding of only two new tracks, both of which it is believed were merely tasters of a CD full of new unreleased rarities. I for one like the idea of a high quality vinyl bootleg in 2007,and despite the bad press this is a good quality release on high Quality Vinyl , unlike many of the recent reissues on black Vinyl and Picture Discs

I am slightly amused at the idea floated by some that this is the manufacturers way of stopping illegal downloads.

Whilst the track listing is nothing special what we do have is an upgrade of previously common material and some new material. One of which Revolution 1 runs exceptionally slow and you may wish to make your own copy and speed correct .

The sets were released with either two white or two Black discs stored in black poly' lined sleeves , some dealers appear to have shuffled sets so that there is one disc of each colour which they then describe as very rare. Rare yes there are probably only a few handfuls of split sets. Nobody wants this I am sure.

The marbled and discs appear to be one off's or test pressings at this stage possibly from the manufacturing process as is the clear vinyl disc .
