NME - Unholy Death CD on Moribund - was this one bootleged? Two supposedly mint copies for sale at the moment on Discogs, one from Russia and the other from Romania, both neatly priced ... Hard to believe for a CD that should've been pressed in 777 copies nearly 20 years ago :?: http://www.discogs.c...

I bought that one for $70 -- seller accepted my best offer of $40.

To my knowledge only one the very first european pressing plant existed before the CD mass production in 1986-87 it's Polygram in Hanover. This Rainbow CD made exactly by this factory. Too bad just a small number of Metal releases was pressed there back in early-middle 80's. I like very much origin...

Interesting ... Do you maybe know where the slim cases were produced, Germany or Japan? There were also other CD pressing plants in early/mid 80s in Germany too, right? --> http://www.ebay.com/itm/RAINBOW-Straight-Between-The-Eyes-very-early-WG-RED-FACE-1st-Rel-CD-Polydor-1982-/271335473121?pt=Music...

Crazy! But it's the first time on eBay anyway?

Really?? I vaguely remember seeing another copy not that long ago but I could be wrong ...

Anyhow, congratulations on winning this one, fellow forum member

Can anyone give me a tip of a good blogspot site w/ underground 80s metal uploads? Strappado seems to have many dead links, can't find that thrashmania80 site, etc. Thanks!

I just realized that my Malleus Malefiracum copy - http://www.musik-sammler.de/media/908701 - contains a bunch of ads for 1990 RR releases (Deicide s/t, Swallowed in Black, Cause of Death etc.), so it is obviously a 1990 release.
