Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

[jgcable]

What do you own???
Vinyl only!!
I will start it off with 2:

The Scorpions-- Virgin Killers (the one with the teenage girl with the crack in the glass right in front of her hey nanni-nanni). They changed the album cover very soon after its release.

Judas Priest--Sad Wings of Destiny (1976 Gull Records) the label changed to either CBS or Columbia soon after its 1st pressing.

Re: Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

Ive got a Judas Priest british import 45 from I think 1982 (I'm not at home to check) with 5 songs such as Green Manalishi, Exciter, Tyrant. I also have a rare Screaming for Vengeance color "Picture Disc" front and back that I was given in 1985 by an Uncle who at that time was a record promoter. Those picture discs were only given to radio stations for promotional purposes and were NOT sold! I also had a rare Motley Crue, Helter Skelter picture disc that I sold to a friend for $75.00 who still has it. [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Re: Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

Not really rare or metal, I guess, but I have the Quiet Riot album with Randy and the guys in the locker room with the Japanese writing on the paper band around the jacket.

Re: Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

I have the first Body Count with Cop Killer on it which was removed I think

I also have a 12" version of Jump in the Fire (this is rare?)

and a 12" Creeping Death (? what about this one then?)

Someone once insisted my Ride the Lightning and Kill Em' All were "collector's items" since they are both Megaforce pressings. I guess I thought they were full of crap. I have no idea.

I have a Pink Floyd 45 of "When the Tigers Broke Free/ Bring the Boys Back Home" a promo only single of film music from the Wall

that would be about it. Nothing really too exciting I suppose.

Re: Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

Just about every Maiden EP up to 7th Son on vinyl along with picture discs.

I have the following Venom picture disks: At War With Satan and Possessed.

I also have all my Maiden on vinyl up to No Prayer.

Lets see...Rough Cutt's first one, Accept: Balls to the Wall, Restless and Wild, Metal Heart.

Armored Saint's first EP.

Warlord's Deliver Us. Still has the t shirt order form.

Re: Rare metal albums vinyl only!!

I was always under the belief for some reason that the Lynyrd Skynyrd Street Survivors LP with the original flame cover was this really rare and valuable thing. Now I see that its worth like $15. Yee haw. I did discover though that all my old Zappa records on the original labels are worth pretty good coin. I have about 250 records, probably 70% metal. I guess I'll hang on to them all.

Which love at first sting cover do you have? There were 2 actually. The first was the one with the girl getting the tattoo and apparently that was too racy (why, I have no idea...) and the second one was the band just walking towards the camera which was actually the album insert liner picture from the first version of that album. I bought both just for the hell of it.... [img]graemlins/laugh.gif[/img]

I have an old Overkill LP... It's called Fuck You and it has the hand shooting the middle finger on the cover. Probably the rarest Album I have.

I've got the 12" picture disc of Creeping Death.

I *had* the 12" pictured disc of Jump In The Fire, not the regular version but the one shaped like the demon. I believe one of my brother's friends stole it from my house when we went on vacation one year. [img]graemlins/images/icons/mad.gif[/img]

Pig-shaped 7" WASP picture disc of Animal (Fuck Like A Beast).

Original banned artwork 12" picture disc of Exodus' Pleasures Of The Flesh (jungle/cannibal scene of band members). [img]graemlins/headbang.gif[/img]

Original Kiss Creatures Of The Night LP.

Original Kiss Creatures Of The Night blue vinyl.

A bunch of other Iron Maiden, WASP, Mercyful Fate, Anthrax LPs and picture discs I can't recall offhand.
