Found this old Indonesian cassette bootleg of Cut The Crap in my house's warehouse. As far as I know, my dad bought this in Bandung back in 1996.
Instead of opening with “Dictator” like the real album, they swapped “This Is England” into track 1.
They also added “Sex Mad Roar” and “Do It Now” (non-LP material), then completely lost it and shoved a chunk of Combat Rock onto Side B.
Honestly, I kind of admire the logic: start with arguably the strongest song on the album, push the weaker material back, then throw in bonus tracks and a half of Combat Rock tracks.
I’ve been researching this claim (which I’ve heard in a couple of posts and articles) but I can’t find any reputable sources for this. Is it true and what might it come from? Thanks!!!
