Comments

An early CD Bootleg From A now well respected label but what a bad start , the first three titles being incorrectly mastered. These Titles were a joint release with Sphinx records and it has been suggested that the American East coast was covered by Yellow Dog and the West by Sphinx.

Several people refer to these mis-presses as Mono, which isn't strictly true with them being 1 channel in both tracks. The first three titles were reissued on Yellow Dog and I am unaware of any further involvement with Sphinx Records.

Whilst the reissue as been repeatedly copied and cloned, not surprisingly I'm not aware of any copies of these three titles.
