I've read that according to the band there were 300 pressed & no picure sleeve issued although as you've pointed out there are images on discogs

Also this was their only release. The other mentioned recordings were "radio tapes".
Their only other released track was "It's Only Love" on the Rhode Island VA 45 "WBRU 95.5 The Rock Hunt Record"

Thanks Bruce, I was confused. I found an article that seems to be interviewing the band, where they mention the other two releases as singles. I couldn't find any evidence of either one ever selling but that doesn't prove anything, so I went with it. Same with the pic sleeve. I read a small amount had the sleeve but once again, no evidence?
Hello Bruce, This record has a sleeve Actually my copy has a sleeve, You can see that on my page of Facebook.
Thanks anon, Good to know (proves you can't always beleive what you read)
Believing what I read is what started this conversation to begin with.... I reached out to my friend Jason Litchfield. He's an authority on bands from this area. He confirmed that there's indeed a rare picture sleeve and the three singles mentioned in the article I read were most likely demo tapes. Thank you all for the info and your comments!
