    Does anyone actually have the version with the Mr. Rogers samples? I bought it when it was brand new and didn't have 'em. Still there's supposed to be 200k copies available but that version's nowhere to be found online including here!? :)

      Fantastic pressing, sounds great all the way through! There's not a single thing wrong with this, highly recommended!

        Can anyone ID the original first pressing? The one with the full Mr Rogers sample that was pulled after 200,000 copies? Most versions start "Once upon a time, in the black part of the city..." without the full skit.
