Some may know more than me, but ... It was pressed apparently by Mike Dutton, KLF bootlegger extraordinaire (and latterly, elusive money-grabber), who also came up with things like the "Komplete" vid, the original "White Room" demos cassette with the "What Goes On" mixes, and the "Arkive 1" and "Arkive 2" CDs. All these things coul be bought direct from him - but they also filtered through record fairs. I think it dates from around mid-1991, which probably makes it one of the earliest KLF boots (along with the "White Room" demo cassette, and possibly the original red cover 1987 CD). I seem to remember reading somewhere that there were far more copies pressed that the 500 announced on the sleeve. And, of course, ETERNA 23 has nothing to do with Italy. Of course, the track originally comes from the 12" promo ETERNA 1, limited to 20 (?) copies - the only person I've heard of who owns that baby is Erik Gander. ETERNA 1 also includes a 3-minute edit of the same track, and the original version (the mix from KLF010CD rather than JAMSLP5, I think). Oh, and as an aside, lovers of Graham Lee's slide guitar might like to know that the Triffids, minus Dave McComb of course, played a reunion gig in Denmark this June. Free downloads of their stuff (some including Lee's style we will all recognise) can be found here: http://thetriffids.com/sitefiles/audio.shtml Graham Lee (no longer "Evil", apparently) is also the site Webmaster.

I have come across a white label professing to be the above-named Italian bootleg - according to Lazlo's fine, if outdated, discography.
Can anyone shed any further light on the validity, release numbers/date, etc...? I plan to check that it is one-sided and has an edition number on the label, etc.
An RRP would be useful too!!
Cheers,
Kjartan
