(I HOPE YOU’RE SITTING FOR THIS ONE). YOU ARE LOOKING AT. (STORY HOW I GOT IT IS BELOW). ORIGINAL, US, ABSOLUTE FIRST PRESS. NY COMPANY THAT PRESSED TEST PRESSINGS FOR MEGAFORCE-(IVE HAD OTHERS). THE WAX IS A THING OF BEAUTY!!!!! THE WAX AND LABEL ARE NEAR MINT. SIDE A MATRIX has stamped MASTERING BY FRANKFORD/WAYNE NEW YORK. And then written L. (written star symbol) A-1 MRI 769 A and then a symbol which looks like a old cheerleaders bull horn. SIDE B MATRIX has written A-1 MRI 769 B and then a symbol which looks like a old cheerleaders bull horn. THIS HAS BEEN STORED IN A MOBILE FIDELITY SOUND SLEEVE RICE PAPER SLEEVE FOR THE PAST 25 YEARS. THE STICKER AND WRITING ON THE PLAIN WHITE SLEEVE WERE PUT ON BY JONNY Z –AT LEAST THATS HOW IT WAS WHEN I GOT IT. I RECEIVED THIS DIRECTLY FROM JONNY Z AT MEGAFORCE RECORDS. I HAD BECOME “FRIENDLY” WITH JOHNNY AND MARSHA WHEN I BECAME INTERESTED IN METALLICA AFTER SEEING THEM OPEN FOR RAVEN—-THEY WERE ALSO INTERESTED IN A BAND I KNEW/WORKED WITH IN THE CINCINNATI AREA. I ALSO WORKED WITH SEVERAL RECORD STORES IN CINCY AND WORKED WITH A “TRAVELING RECORD STORE” EVERY WEEKEND AROUND THE COUNTRY DOING RECORD SHOWS WITH BOBBY T (BOB NIXIOUS, KINGPIN ETC). HE WAS THE KING OF THE RECORD SHOW CIRCUIT–METAL WAS HIS THING AND HE HAD LOTS OF PEOPLE THAT WOULD COME FROM FAR AWAY TO SEE US AND ASK BOB “WHATS NEW”. JONNY Z WAS MORE THAN WILLING TO SEND ME NEW MEGAFORCE STUFF. HE WOULD SEND DEMOS, TEST PRESSES, ALBUMS, PROMOS, POSTERS EVERYTHING THEY HAD. WELL ALONG WITH OTHER BANDS OF THEIRS, METALLICA FIRST APPEARED ON MY RADAR RIGHT AFTER KILL EM ALL WAS RELEASED AND I SAW THEM OPEN FOR RAVEN. I NEVER GOT A TEST PRESS FOR THAT, BUT I DID GET AN ORIGINAL MIX WHIPLASH, A ONE SIDED REMIXED WHIPLASH AND A FINAL TEST PRESS. A WHILE BEFORE “RIDE” WAS RELEASED, HE SENT ME 2 TEST PRESSES. I GAVE IT A FEW LISTENS, BUT I MADE A CASSETTE COPY FOR THE CAR AND AFTER??? PLAYS, WELL, I DIDN’T STOP PLAYING IT FOR????? (STILL HAVEN’T STOPPED). SO, IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS PLEASE DON’T HESITATE TO ASK. I DON’T HAVE ANY OF THE WHIPLASH ONES EITHER–(THEY ALL WENT TO A GUY IN CLEVELAND). I’M SORRY IF THIS IS OUT OF YOUR BUDGET. THIS WILL BE SECURELY PACKED AND THEN PACKED AGAIN AND THEN PROBABLY PACKED A THIRD TIME TO ENSURE IT ARRIVES TO YOU IN THE SAME NEW CONDITION IT LEFT HERE. I HAVE LOTS MORE Records, 45’s, CD’s, Promo’s, AUTOGRAPHS etc. I try to list them but its difficult (time) if you’re looking for anything, let me know. IF YOU HAVE A “WANT LIST” OR JUST LOOKING FOR A CERTAIN RECORD/CD/45/PROMOS, AUTOGRAPHS, POSTERS ETC. I HAVE A LARGE MUSIC COLLECTION THAT STARTS WITH THE EARLY 50’s TO THE LATEST RANCID, Blink 182 & MING CITY ROCKERS LP’s. NORMAL WEAR/TEAR DUE TO STORAGE/SHELF. PLEASE DON’T HESITATE TO ASK ANY RELATED QUESTIONS-I DON’T BITE. Please ask any questions. CANADA/INTERNATIONAL BUYERS—-IF YOU NEED A QOUTE, PLEASE SEND ME YOUR ADDRESS AND I WILL GET AN ESTIMATE.
