      Here are some scans of the Grecian text on the vinyl sleeve. It doesn’t look like it says anything promotional, just via context, but can you make anything of it? Thanks!

      my Greek = virutally non-existant—

      still:

      1 > the first scanned ‘banner’ seems to indicate:
      PROMOTIONAL / MANAGEMENT: — followed by a name —

      2 > the second scanned ‘banner’ seems to indicate:
      EXECUTIONER / PRODUCER / ‘COMPILER’ (or something to this extent): — followed by a name —

      3 > on the sleeve it’s just address info as per: phone, telex and fax numbers…

      of course:
      i stand corrected if there’s anyone proficient in modern Greek!!!—
      i’m not too far off, though: i guess… :)

      hope this helps!-

      i think you’re quite right, sven. there is no mention of this being a promotional release.

      the address is somewhere in agia paraskevi: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agia_Paraskevi

      first banner: \"cover design\" + name (antonis papanikolaou)
      http://el.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CF%83%CF … F%83%CE%B7
      http://el.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B5%CE … E%BB%CE%BF

      second banner: \"printing\" + name (michalis orphanos)
      http://el.wiktionary.org/wiki/%CE%B5%CE … F%83%CE%B7

      So should I change it to a commercial release then? If so, where’s the barcode? Do they sell items w/o barcodes in 1994?

      it doesn’t prove anything. it would have been easier if it had said \"promotional release\". now we don’t really know. it doesn’t mention that it’s a promo, but there’s no barcode either… :(

      this was updated using sven and bram’s input/advice. thanks!

      for now, we list it as unknown (promo vs. commercial).
