I never heard of it before but my local record store just got a used copy. Its from 1995. Just wondering if it was anything to get too excited about. I bought it still for three dollars

Its nice to see a bootleg like this fetch for only a couple of dollars these days. I'm happy those people who used to charge $25 a disc back in the early 90s have been put out of business.

This is true but at the same time you were buying somehting that nobody else had so it was pretty unique. Nowadays everybody has everything they want.
I miss those days. and while it seems crazy to pay $50 for a boot now it was special back then.
Chapters, No Fucking Messian and Shell in the Desert were my first three

Man i was paying anywhere from $35 for a single disc and up to $55 for a double set. Its funny how the times have changed. Nothing beat the excitement of seeing of one of these in the cd rack and thinking what gems are on this one only to have the same amount of disappointment when looking at the price tag. I still bought the fuckers anyway!
It always brings a smile seeing these at 2nd hand shops and being sold for peanuts. Good find mate

Yeah good times, that made me want to open a record shop many years ago.
There used to be a website which listed all of these bootlegs that had the tracklisting and label etc etc Anyone know if its still out there? would be cool to read thru that again.
