gauze wrote:Can anyone pull out their copy of Medieval-Medieval Kills! LP and check the matrix etching? I have a test press and it doesn't match the official release's catalog number (which I don't have to check against) of NRR-34 but has NRR-37 instead which is a Deadly Blessing LP apparently. The music is correct however, just wondering if I have a rejected test or something basically.

thanks
my regular vinyl has NRR 37 on the matrix too.

been trying to find info on this press of Metallica-Ride The Lightning Picture Disk LP on Vertigo/Phonogram copyright date 1989 with a radiation symbol die cut into the outer cover, catalog number 838 140-1 no mention of country of release, no readable matrix numbers, label code: "LC1638" (which is unlisted in rateyourmusic.com list) not sure what this is: "PG901" (Phonogram catalog number maybe)

Any help with this one? Thinking it might be a bootleg.

Not sure if this helps or not, but I have had experience with another Metallica bootleg which was supplied with the same radiation die cut sleeve. It was supposed to be the 'Black' album as a picture disc, but obviously it was a boot (I don't believe the black album was ever released as a single disc? in any event this one was pressed with Pink Floyd or something similar on the disc itself). So I'd be aware on that one.

This has the correct music but the pressing/mastering of the disk sounds prettu bad. it was only $10 at any rate just curious about it when I couldn't find it on discogs.com or 2 other online discographies including one with like 40 different Metallica picture discs

Could have been a fluke, but it's certainly not easy to find.

Of course not. Got mine for 40 DM and neither it's worth 150 $ musically nor seen by the quantity of copies. It for sure rarely pops up nowadays but then you need to pay 150 $ for any average album pressed in a 500-1000 copies edition. More than 50-60 $ I surely wouldn't invest anymore. That album is not bad (not that you understand something wrong) but never worth 150 $.
