PLEASE NOTE - THIS IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE unless I find (and can afford) any more.
Below is the original description telling the story behind this 'Special Edition'


The very first repress of Dark Round The Edges from 1990.

For a limited time 30 of these were auctioned on Ebay until sold out.

There will never be any more - unless, as I say, one turns up on Ebay at an affordable price!

This vinyl is from the same repress as that of the Swank Records release by Gregg Breth & Paul Majors back in 1990.
It was subsequently made available by Steve Smith/Kissing Spell in 1991: darkside 001 on his then Darkside label.

Gregg Breth had originally commissioned me to get 250 copies made and shipped over to him for Swank to release.
The pressing plant I used would not press less that 500, so I kept the rest.

After that initial release, Steve Smith contacted me to produce the first CD of Dark Round The Edges and, on finding out I had the extra vinyls, bought about 220 of them to release himself.

That left me with the remainder of 30 or so which, apart from giving a few away back then, I have done nothing with until now.

I have produced the photos and stuck them to the sleeves, much as I did back in 1972 - but the quality of the sleeve (now a true gatefold), photos and booklets, is much improved.

The booklets are produced on high quality satin finish paper and are professionally bound photobooks. The vinyls are supplied in plastic lined anti-static sleeves and the whole
package is inside a plastic outer sleeve.

Also included is 'The Dark Round The Edges Story’ as remembered by myself.
The story tells of the day and subsequent evenings spent at SIS Studios laying down the backing tracks and the overdubbing.
This is an A4 photobook of the same quality as the new lyric booklet.

In addition, there is a limited edition CD of the backing tracks, without any vocal or guitar overdubs, and includes the out-takes that were not recorded over during the studio
session on 9th July 1972.
These are produced by myself and are presented in a plastic wallet which also contains the artwork insert.

Also included was a Certificate of Authenticity which will be numbered out of 30. This was because I held on to some for ourselves.
The Certificate included a few notes on how this recreation came to be.
