fake vinyl out there

Somebody had the idea of making two 12" bootlegs with PJ's b-sides. It seems they're having a great diffusion, because I even found them in a record store here in Rome.
anyway.. you can see them @ eBay.

the first is called Maniac

the second is called Harder

The artwork ain't that credible.
I guess somebody noticed how much Polly vinyl releases are becoming expensive and they're trying to speculate.

Such a shame shame shame! :grin:

Been awhile since I've seen bootleg vinyl.
Doesn't eBay have rules against this shit? I know people get away with dvd's of footage that was televised or audience recordings put to cd but studio tracks? :evil:

I actually bought the second 12" just to check it out. Whoever pressed them is funny. They didn't even attempt to find good quality singles to use as masters. Some of them sound like they were used for frisbee's in an asphalt parking lot, by guy's that can't catch :laugh:

Hey skinned, was it you that turned me on to the VHS Island Press Kit for ROM from eBay in Italy (a long time ago :blush: )

:laugh: sorry, "turned me on to" also known as "pointed me in the direction of" :wink:

Someone had linked to a tape on eBay that I ended up buying but I've forgotten who it was. Just being lazy, if I do some digging I'll figure it out. Just thought it was you for some reason.
