Presumably it's on the Rhino label?

It's a relatively recent one - release date was announced for January 23rd, 2018, although this was put back when the printing mistake was discovered!

Rhino re-released three albums on coloured vinyl - 'Easy Action' was on gold, 'Killer' on "translucent red vinyl with swirls" and 'Welcome To My Nightmare' on purple. However, it was discovered that there was a worldwide pressing error on both the 'Killer' and 'Easy Action' discs, where the releases had the correct labels and the records were the correct colour...but the wrong music!

It was then recalled, but some copies were missed. I don't know how many got out

I have heard of a copy of 'Easy Action' containing 'Killer' on a record auction site (not e-bay) going for just under £130
