    Limited Edition; limited to around 10.000 pressings !

    This was limited to 10.000 pressings because the Fusion label threatened to sew Megatone because they owned the rights of Menergy and I wanna take you home.
    So: Megatone came out with another album M1002 with Sea Hunt and Teen Planet but WITHOUT Menergy, I wanna take you home.

    The pressing is exactly the same as the M-1001 but with different runout grooves etchings.

    This pressing is kind a rare and there is highly underestimated.
