5000 made of the first press on black vinyl. About 10 copies have yellow hair color on front sleeve, 2-4 copies have purple colored eye shadow on labels (as opposed to b/w regular labels). Second press: 3 test pressings on black with “PRI Record Pressing” labels. 500 on purple vinyl, 25 on swirled black & purple, but these are more a by-product from changing the vinyl color. Purple vinyl copies without labels have been reported. Bootlegs: #1 - German boot with thin b/w sleeve without the violet color (reportedly some DO have the purple color!), 500 made. #2 - Japanese boot, really well-madereal good, but the black edge on top of the front cover is missing; also the matrix number reads “PL 1015 B 1” instead of the original “PL 1015 B FWG DM”. #3 - Black and blue vinyl copies. #4 - Blue vinyl.

First solo project by the Misfits’ vocalist; Glenn plays all instruments himself, but this sounds like any of the great early Misfits 7”s; great melodies, rough music, and well, it’s Glenn Danzig singing. Glenn Danzig badly wanted to be the new Elvis Presley, and you can tell on the B side. Another classic. [9]

Soloprojekt vom Misfits-Chef, das aber auch nicht sehr viel anders klingt als deren damalige Werke - roh, mit unglaublichen Melodien, und eben Danzigs Stimme. Spook City klingt so, als habe der Meister mal wieder seine Elvis-Allüren.
