Question about EVOL pressings...

Hey.

As of last wednesday or so, I happen to be the proud owner of an '86 pressing of EVOL, and I've been searching everywhere for info on the different pressings to try and find out if it's the first, and I figured this could be a good place to ask around :)

Anyway, mine's an SST pressing, '86 with the correct etchings (Destroy all record labels + Everything turns black to blue) and some numbers. Also it's on black vinyl (I heard rumours that the original SST's were on pink vinyl). Any info would be greatly appreciated.

cheers!

I believe the colored vinyl came later...sst put out a bunch of their albums on colored vinyl in the early 90s I think.

Sounds like an original to me...does it have the insert?

The later reissue pressings' covers have a darker print, and don't look as good, IMO.

Insert looks fine. Mostly I was hoping that somebody would know if the second pressing didn't come out until '87, or if maybe the first pressings arenumbered or something... Mine has "L-24031" and "15902" Scratched into the A-side and "L-24031x" and "15903" in the B-side. but I don't really know what to read of that. Anyway, I checked that link allready, but thanks for replying to both of you!
