I have a hand numbered (784/1000) copy of this album that I got from the International Pop Underground Festival in Olympia, Washington.

Dugor
I purchased my copy there as well in the line-up waiting to pick up our convention passes.

It seems like there were extra copies made when KRS decided to re-issue this classic in 2011. These were subsequently either given away or sold from KRS direct. These 'extra' copies are identical to the re-press just not hand numbered, or numbered at all for that matter.... They pop up on e-bay from time to time.

1st press is easily identified by the Gold on black silkscreened front of the cover, no gold lettering on the insert, back cover pictures are different as are the labels. BEWARE as I hav seen this sold on E-bay as a 1st press when in fact is only the shitty RSD 2011 version. The front cover is a dead give-away.

Xava
This is where I give out a mournful sigh and start thinking about how great it used to be.

abzu What is objectively bad about the re-press? Nothing I guess.. truth is I have not heard the re-press. I just have issues with RSD in general.... Used to be every day was record store day.
