Hi Ron,
that's not the problem, but you have typed "1987".
I have the us release of RCA from 1984, so I have
take a look in the booklet, but no information about
the author. And then I have seen the release year.
for the states and it's 1984, so the new artwork
can't be from 1987, 'Cause it's from 1981!!
That's what I mean with my posting.
Hi Michael...the 'source' I've obtained this information from does not differentiate between the UK release and the US release, just that the release was reissued with the new artwork in 1987...the 'Novel' was issued in 1981 and the 'game' in 1992...if the release of the new art work on 'Rocka Rolla' is in question, I will cede that point, but the question is still very much valid as it has to do with the 'book' and the 'game' and not the year of the Priest release...

Hmm...
The first release with the new artwork was in 1981 in the uk.
First release in the states in license by Gull was in 1984 by RCA.

Good day fellow Metalheads...today's first trivia is a multi-answer question...
...in 1987, Priest reissued 'Rocka Rolla' with new cover art as the band didn't think the original adequately represented a 'Metal' band...the new artwork was originally the cover of what 'Novel' (published in '81) as well as the cover of the US release of what 'Video Game' (released in '92)??
...special 'BONUS' points if you have the authors name...
