Judging by the cover, it looks like "Please do not re release me".

For collectability's sake I actually wouldn't mind trying to locate one of these.. but only if there were bonus tracks in keeping with the original concept. Songs like "Portrait Of My Love", "Just A Closer Walk With Thee", "Teardrops" and "Your Life Has Just Begun" haven't been released yet as far as I know.

Bizarre!!! What is the point?? Yes I will buy it 'cos I am a completist, but really what a strange choice. It is definitely factory pressed I hear.

I'm not so sure of the content of the original LP but there's no denying it was a historic bootleg. It's before my time but I recall seeing it at least since the late '70s when I became a fan. If you recall that time, then it is a classic cover, if a bit primitive. So what's on it, gents?
