Still a massive success in Japan, Epic Records released Nukleopatra there in 1995.
Left without a record contract in the UK and the US, this album did not get released in other territories until years later. Nukleopatra was eventually issued on several different labels, with varying track listings, timings and album artwork.
Following Japan, "Nukleopatra" was released as a limited edition (only 550 CD's released) in South Africa by RPM Records in 1996. The South African album had completely NEW artwork, featuring risqué cover and disc pictures with Pete Burns grabbing his crotch..
aka (his "mangina") :)
The South African "Nukleopatra" CD album is a highly sort after collectable item - selling for US$300-US$500 plus+ when available
S.A. NUKLEOPATRA catalogue (CDRPM 1544) is the most rare and expensive official Dead Or Alive release ever.
