PAGAN ALTAR - Volume I (1982) UK


ORACLE RECORDS
Recorded at Pagan Studios, London 1982, but first released in 1998. A thematic album centered around magic/witchcraft and the occult. The original title for the instrumental song "Acoustics" is "Cry of the Banshee" and has been changed by the pressing plant of the CD for unknown reasons. Also re-released on vinyl 2005, by Black Widow Records, with a different artwork and under the name of Judgement of the Dead, which was to be the original title for Volume 1. This version also comes with a bonus track, "March of the Dead (first version)" (3:55) Black Widow LP-Version is released as a normal black vinyl version with a biography book and printed innersleeve and as a collector's edition of 300 red LPs (also with the book and printed innersleeve), handnumbered on a small cardboard. There exist many Bootleg LP Versions of this album, made in the USA in the mid-1990's. They are of inferior sound quality and overall cheaply done.
