I bought this back in the eighties & it is one of the reasons I stopped buying bootlegs for a long time. Terrible terrible quality.

That is fucked up! I got 'Testament' for £27 which included continent-hopping postage & packing! Now if the poor gimp who won the auction lives as far away from the seller as I did, he'd have to pay £24.50 for this 'rare white label promo album'. Let's hope it's another record dealer that paid that price and not a fan (because only a very confused fan would pay that, wouldn't they?).

This is one of the earliest Prince boots, so I suppose that it's a rarity. I bought mine in about 1987. By today's standards, the sound quality is extremely poor.

I think I paid 20 bones for it brand-new.
