Aych Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 So, a few months ago I found this LP at my local record store: I bought it for $14, thinking it was pretty sparse for an Arctic Monkeys release. I did a bit of digging online, and the only things I could figure out were: 1) it's a bootleg, and 2) almost every other copy of this exact bootleg are on white vinyl and came in a PVC sleeve. Does anyone know anything else about it? I'm really curious. There isn't even a Discogs entry on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Tea Papi Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Interesting. what tracks does it have? Perhaps promo and not a bootleg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shitty Rambo Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I'd imagine if information is that sparse it is in fact a bootleg. That doesn't mean it isn't cool, just buy a shirt from the band's website or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
darkeyelids Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 Its a bootleg, i remember banquet records in the UK were selling it and they posted a note saying they have cancelled all orders as they dont sell bootlegs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Green Tea Papi Posted March 12, 2013 Share Posted March 12, 2013 I still want to know what tracks it has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aych Posted March 13, 2013 Author Share Posted March 13, 2013 I don't know the exact track listing (I'm not near my records right now), but I do remember that it's five tracks that didn't make it onto Whatever People Say I Am on the A-side, then five demo versions/live cuts on the B-side. Also, this might sound stupid, but I'm thinking it might be a promo of said bootleg, seeing as how it's completely different from most other copies, which look like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jake7722 Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 I have it on purple-marble vinyl. It comes in the same in the same packaging as yours. Here it is: 6iekc8.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
catalinacaper Posted April 6, 2013 Share Posted April 6, 2013 Just a frequently bootlegged bunch of MP3 "demos" from right after AM became huge and everyone was buying whatever they could. I'm not surprised that there are that many versions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
