Comments: Actually, there is a catalog number on the CD, but it is the same as the original Pure Metal issue.  The insert on the 2000 reissue of Rock The Flock indicates that this was released on the same independent label as the latest Messiah Prophet album.  The first four and the last four songs on the original have been switched.  So the main way to tell the difference between the original and this reissue is that the first song on the original is "Heavy Metal Thunder."
