@Live in Holland: I know someone who has a copy (black vinyl) but he refused to sell it to me so far :(
Maybe he/she does not want to sell, but have you asked for a photo of the lp ? This way we could have a better view on how the lp looks like.

Do you think that is possible ?

It was a one side 7 inch acetate (tape one studio label) with CNT label sheet plug letter, similar to the sheet that i have for be 7 inch. It was sold in Uk aprox 2 weeks I received the mentioned list. Greg never told me who bought it :(

@ Live in Holland 83 : I had bought this lp from GV several years ago in 1988 if i rememer right or so. I was very disappointed at time because it was just the record one of Possession 2lp (both in mcv & black) repackaged in a ltd 100 sleeve with a green insert glued on. For the artwork were used the front cover of ghostraider 7 inch

So disappointed that months afters I trade it :( for to get a copy of the Armaggedon lp that at time was impossible to find (At time i have already several sisters rare items inc several acetates but missed armageddon one and become literally crazy to get a copy). I trade it with other rare bootlegs for to get the rare white vinyl with a german collector. After this always find other copies of Armaggedon but never refind the holland 83 :urff:

Greg had it in stock at time both black and mcv vinyl so sure there are other copies around :D

this the true story

Thanks for the info! I've always wondered what that acetate was...:) So the Holland boot in the list might actually been the real one then!

I have a copy, but just in a plain white sleeve. So not all of them have the scanned green copy ... :eek:

Low price for that one, no?
It wasn't then! But looks mighty cheap now!!! He was always rather wide of the mark with his descriptions and legitimacy of quite a few of the records he sold.

Did you give a photo scan of the sleeve of the Live in Holland to the author of the Unofficial History book ?

Who is the author bye the way of this Unofficial History ?

No. The author is a German and the discography is in German, too
Translation. No? :innocent:

As the discussion and its outcome seem suffcient to create a page in the Wiki for "Live In Holland",

I started with substantiating the basis for the information available ... :lol: ... see Ghost Rider


Yes, please! Have a look and check the information there ...

I'm not sure in all parts. So any rectifications and additions are entirely welcome ... :D ...

my theory - for what its worth is that this LP was simply excess/spare discs, and the green cover was created to sell them. Probably via record fairs and mail order.

That's exactly what happened ref the Japanese cover for Blood Money. There were approx 30 discs extra, (or 30 sleeves short) hence the creation of the Japanese style insert, shrink wrapped and for sale!

So I really doubt there were 100 copies - but as for just how many we may never know.

@Flagg: That is not unlikely, especially as the part one of the concert (Amsterdam, Paradiso, 28.08.83) was also released by TAKRL as 3rd lp (side E and F) of the 3 lp box "The Dark". Needless to say, that the tracklisting of the 3rd lp of The Dark is identical to Live in Holland...
