Nothing in the description indicates that it's a repress/reissue. I think it's just extra copies they found somewhere, that never got handed out back in 2000.

Awesome, is the locked groove only 1.8 seconds of Beware the Friendly Stranger, or more?

I can't quite tell actually... given the actual few seconds at the end of the song, it's difficult to discern. Either way the locked groove track is an extension / loop of the same sounds being used at the end of Beware The Friendly Stranger, yeah. As for 1.8 seconds, it runs at 45rpm and not 33 1/3rpm so i'm not sure how much shorter that makes it :o

I wonder if the ones being sold in 2002 (when I got mine) are from the same batch being sold on Bleep atm? IIRC WarpMart were selling these for £4.99 either shortly before or after Geogaddi was released.

Well for the people who bought the ones off bleep, I got mine off ebay back in 2005. Does this match the one you have? Also, did it come with the blue cover/sleeve?

That's the one. Same. I think the catalogue number is same for all of the different-date releases of this - according to discogs.com anyways.

Well, there are the classic album double packs. Not really re-issues though.

Best thing about this record: one side is entirely blank and so it works as a great test record for setting your anti-skate!

A locked groove on a 45 rpm LP is 1 1/3 seconds long. (:
