There are lots of "Inside" series releases by Classic Rock Productions. All of them are "independent critical reviews" and not authorized by artists, but they are offered by respected stores and nobody called Bob Carruthers (CLR chief) to the court yet. I don't think we need to delete these "Inside" DVDs and CDs.

Heres one from Rush.
 
This live release
 
 
by Leftfield Media is unauthorized by the band. Nearly all releases from this label are also unofficial.

Yeah, Theres quite a few Genesis dvds that weren't authorized/official. These are also quite popular around here it seems.
 
These two dvds
 
 
by Classic Rock Productions are unofficial. A good many of their dvd releases are not authorized by the band.
 
This one
 
 
By Masterplan is also unofficial.
 
Now, also Genesis In Concert 1976 is also unofficial
 
 
The 1976 - 1982 Box Set release from Rhino Records was it's official, band authorized release. not this single dvd from BBC Films + Dvd. Also the only other release by BBC Films + Dvd was an unofficial dvd of a The Cure concert.
 
EDIT: Actually, fail, that is an official release ^. It just needs this cover. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Genesis_Movie_Poster.jpg
 
 
All these record labels have many unofficial releases.

Only references to this I find on the web are those of a (supposedly very good, but I digress) bootleg.  Removal is suggested.  Discogs lists it as an unofficial release.
 
It's also apparently the only release by the label 'disc drug'. And googling for this label brings up nothing.

Yep that's fine. Most people who have robbed banks have a bank account somewhere..

I'm just saying maybe he doesn't have an ulterior motive.

^ the Genesis boxset is gone. Even a casual trawl around the internet reveals very little info on the label/imprint purporting to own the license for these venerable recordings. Given the foregoing, why would one from our number see fit to create a new database entry unless it was for the purposes of vested interest/personal gain?
I've sent a PM to mbzr48 asking where he obtained the album/info (don't expect a  reply real soon y'all)

This new GENESIS compilation: http://www.progarchives.com/album.asp?id=39165 looks like something unofficial.
I have not found the proper information, but some Russian resources tell it's someone's self-made compilation.

Back cover is suspicious as well (no record label, no cat. number): http://fastpic.ru/view/25/2012/1004/b2e19ff9b19103f9015a46968b093abe.jpg.html

^ I still doubt "In Concert" is a bootleg.
Unlike this one http://www.discogs.com/viewimages?release=1618111, my copy has typical King Biscuit logo and is not by Rock Head Records. Confused

ROCKSTARS IN CONCERT
--------------------
(Stemra 6117062)
Source: Olympia, Paris, France, 20/12/1970
CD: Iron Man/Paranoid/War Pigs/Fairies Wear Boots/Hand Of Doom/Black Sabbath/
    Behind The Wall Of Sleep (42:52 min)
Comments: Another version from the French T.V. broadcast in good sound. Same
          concert as "COPPER", "Paris 20/12/70" etc. Made in Holland. This
          bootleg is also available as tape "Black Sabbath - Rockstars In
          Concert" (MC 6117064).

 
IN CONCERT live in worcester

(Rock Head records RHRCD-9906-8, KBFH presents 8015.2)
Source: The Centrum, Worcester, Massachusetts, USA, 4/11/1983
CD: Children Of The Grave/Hot Line/War Pigs/Iron Man/Zero The Hero/Heaven And
    Hell/Solo Tony Iommi/Digital Bitch/Black Sabbath/Smoke On The Water/
    Paranoid (72:08 min)
Comments: Another clone of "Born In Hell". Excellent soundquality as usual
          and deluxe booklet. Said to be made in Canada, sold only in Russia
          and Ukraine, 1999. The CD claims itself to be a King Biscuit Flower
          Hour release which of course it is not.


The Rockstars In Concert entry is a dead cert bootleg and has been deleted. I'm almost certain the Live in Worcester is also a bootleg and is not affiliated in any way with the familiar King Biscuit series of live albums but will have do do a bit more digging around to make sure (Shame really, as it's one of the few live recordings we have with Gillan in the band)  Thanks for the prompt on these twoThumbs Up

Hint: click on the picture.

It's the wrong album cover that's for sure.


Yes, and I could not find a proper one. Besides, it appears to be unauthorised by the band.
Moreover, the number of the entry is 818 so it must've been added a long time ago. How come nobody noticed it until now?


Apologies that no-one acted on this before now. I've searched on the band's official website and elsewhere and it's clearly not a release endorsed or contracted by the band so yes, deleted accordingly as an unauthorised bootleg.
