The vinyl version is missing the "Appendage" which appears at the end of the "Please" cassette version and "With Decay" which appears at the end of "Ripe" on the CD and cassette versions. The vinyl version also contains extended versions of some songs.

 Ooooooooooooh - just noticed that the bootleggers have done it again! So please note: THIS is a genuine copy of this album and NOT a cheap counterfeit on red vinyl with blurred cover image. This comes on black quality vinyl with deluxe booklet!

 Just getting a bit angry because some people go on and on trying to convince me that this was a bootleg and I shouldn't so arrogantly blow my horn. Listen up, this thing was bought by myself in autumn 1999 in Berlin. If anyone of you is going to tell me that this record was bootlegged immediately when it came out and a very well known Berlin vinyl dealer would offer a counterfeit instead of a - then! - easily obtainable original then I'll just have to laugh.

This copy doesn't have stuff like "a printed sticker on the green side", if I remember it right it was shrinkwrapped when I bought it nine years ago. I comes with black die-cut NOTHING innersleves from heavy cardboard that I replaced with poly linered innersleeves. All six sides carry the groove signature "ORLAKE" which I guess is the name of the guy who cut it.

I hope this is enough to convince you that this IS the real deal.

 OK - for those of you unwilling to believe, check the following infos from
http://www.crimson-ceremony.net/pr3/pressingplants/v_orlake.html

"Orlake was founded in 1963. It is the only pressing plant in UK which offers full range of vinyl products; picture discs, shaped discs, and colored vinyl, in addition the the regular black vinyl. They also do processing, both from lacquers or DMM masters. They pressed most of, if not all, UK Nirvana picture discs and colored vinyl, from Tupelo to Geffen releases. They can be identified by "ORLAKE" written in the matrix codes, usually deep but not always very smooth, which suggest that it was added to the lacquers when they received them. It seems they had Abbey Road Studios cut most of their lacquers."

Anymore questions or clever remarks???
