Brocas Helm-Black Death LP (Gargoyle)
Bulldozer-Fallen Angel 7" (no label)
Coven-Worship New Gods LP (Crom)
Danger Zone-Victim of Time MLP (Subrecord)
Dark Quarterer-s/t LP
Graf Spee-Reincarnation LP (Orfeo)
Merciless-Treasures Within LP (Active)
Mistreater-Hells Fire LP (no label, 1981)
Paralex-White Lightning 12" (Reddingtons Rare Records)

Actually the one you have is the first pressing. Second pressing is the one with the same front & back (including an insert). Not that it makes a big difference because they were both printed in 500 copies.

No kidding? Thought I had read the opposite in the HRR LP insert. Hmm..maybe I should keep both!

The HRR write-up accompanying the reissue does say that the first press is the one with the same image front and back plus the insert. However, this is the opposite of what everyone else has said in the past; collectors/dealers have always thought that the first press is the version with different front and back images and no insert. Hence the current confusion.

In my experience the version with the different front and back covers is the harder one to find.

So, so be 100% on the safe side, you have to find both versions. :lol:

I have the one with different front/back side and with no insert.

I only have the vinyl, no cover or insert. If anyone has a spare to trade/sell - get in touch!

Well, as tempting as it is to keep both versions, I would still rather have another item from my wants instead. So this is still available for trade.
