[edit] Misfits

I changed Misfits to Misfits So it directly goes to the band's wiki. ~Moersleuteltje

[edit] Fact Checking

I tried to make a few revisions (rewrote a number of sentences to clarify some things), but I encountered some potential factual inaccuracies. I have deleted a few things, but refrained from adding other things, pending discussion here. Here are the issues I found:

  • It was always my understanding that the album was recorded in Lars' garage, yet the infobox says it was recorded at A & M and Conway Studios, LA July, 1987. Which is correct?
  • I am reasonably certain that the cover of any CD copy of the recording that bears the inscription $5.98 EP rather than $9.98 CD is an unathorized bootleg (and always rather obviously so, at least in my own experience) rather than an official release. Anyone convinced otherwise?

Everyone's input is greatly appreciated... -Grammaticus Repairo 07:45, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

I have the album on CD. I forget where the case is, and the CD's somewhere in a case of other ones. 71.60.159.181 03:48, 18 August 2007 (UTC)

I have the Aussie CD release, it has $5.98 on the cover, and from what i remember from the time, all shops selling it on CD had $5.98 on it. I have seen different back covers though. Mine is the same as the vinyl, but with Side A/B (noticeably, different shade) blacked out. BatGnat (talk) 02:33, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
