Russian bootlegs?

Hi Trolls,

wanted to share with you these images. Here is the link

I think it is the bootleg record after Soviet Union collapse. Some releases like these at that time were made. Somewhere I found that it was very funny accidents in Russian pressing plants that they getting stampers from a central distribution system and forgets to add a cover design, so instead of waiting for them to come they just taking some image writing in russian laguage the band and song names....

As from pictures can be seen something familiar to Led Zeppelin.
Quite bad sounding records awful background sound, not noise but something humming.

Hope it is interesting to someone... I have a very interesting article in russian, the author describes the situation that was in Soviet Union with vinyl records. I could translate it in short if interested.

p.s. By the way the company that released these records are:

(C) The producers center of rock-n-roll income
United Gospel-Lutheran Church Russia 1991
