This first vinyl pressing has three pressing ring indentations; one small 32mm ring near the spindle hole, and two larger sloped rings which are 59mm and 93mm in diameter, respectively.
There was an almost identical second run some years later, but this does not have the outer 93mm pressing ring indentation. (The pressing plant changed their stamper profile in 2000 to a flatter profile.)
The sleeves are almost identical, but have some slight variations in colour tone, and the printed text and barcode on the second pressing is a bit blurry. The label colour is much darker and warmer on the 2nd pressing.
Please refer to the submitted images to easily see the label difference.

Track A1 is a slightly extended version of the album track.
Track A2 is a cover of a Humble Pie song. Basic track recorded live at Studentersamfunnet in Halden.
Track A3 was written with lyrical help from future crime writer Samuel Bjørk, Frode Øien.
Track B1 is a re-recording of a cast-off from the When The World Sleeps sessions, available on the Blissard 4CD box set.
Track B2 is Geb alone on a four-track.

Tracks sequentially listed 1 to 5 on the release.

300 copies were imported to Norway from Stickman Records.

Starmelt / Lovelight can also be found on our [m=31541] album, but all else has not been previously released ever.
