IF YOU'VE NEVER HEARD THESE GUYS THEY'RE GREAT!!! IT'S LIKE HAVING TWO YNGWIE MALMSTEENS TRYING TO BATTLE IT OUT. I READ SOMEWHERE THAT IT WAS CONSIDERED IN THE TOP TEN OF SPEED / SHRED GUITAR METAL ALBUMS OF ALL TIME AND SHRAPNEL RECORDS WERE SPECIALISTS AT FINDING AND SIGNING THOSE TYPES OF BANDS IN THE LATE 80'S EARLY 90'S. GREAT GUITAR SOLO EXCHANGES. IF YOU LIKE GUITARISTS AND BANDS THAT SIMPLY SHRED, YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED.
SIDE ONE CONTAINS: SAVAGE - WHERE MY FORTUNE LIES - THE NINJA - CONCERTO.
SIDE TWO CONTAINS: BURN THE GROUND - DESERT ISLAND - SPEED METAL SYMPHONY.
TEST PRESSINGS ARE THE FIRST RECORDS PRESSED FROM THE PLATES TO CHECK THE QUALITY AND CONTENT OF THE ALBUM. SO TEST PRESSINGS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST SOUND QUALITY RECORDINGS THAT YOU CAN EVER FIND OF THAT ALBUM. THEY'RE MADE IN LIMITED QUANTITY, SOMETIMES NO MORE THAN 3 OR 5. IN SOME CASES THE MUSICAL CONTENT AND / OR MIXES ARE DIFFERENT ON TEST PRESSINGS THAN ON THE VERSION THAT'S FINALLY RELEASED. I DON'T HAVE THE REGULAR VINYL RELEASE OF THIS ALBUM TO COMPARE THE TEST PRESSING WITH SO I DON'T KNOW IF THEY'RE ANY DIFFERENCES. HOWEVER I CAN TELL YOU THAT THIS TEST PRESSING SOUNDS INCREDIBLE.
BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD LOOK AND SOUND GREAT, THESE GUYS REALLY SHERD!!! I PLAYED BOTH SIDES ON MY DENON DP-1200 TURNTABLE WITH A DENON MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE HOOKED UP TO A HEAD AMP BEFORE THE PRE-AMP SO I KNOW EXACTLY WHAT THIS RECORD REALLY SOUNDS LIKE AND THERE'S NO SURFACE NOISE THAT I HEARD, AND I BET IF THERE WAS YOU WOULDN'T HEAR IT ANYWAY BECAUSE THESE GUYS ARE NOT ONLY SUPER FAST BUT LOUD!! WHEN I MOVED BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD AROUND UNDER A 100 WATT LIGHT BULB THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NO SCRATCHES NOT EVEN ONE PAPER SCUFF THAT I COULD FIND ON EITHER SIDE OF THE RECORD. MAYBE THAT'S ONE OF THE REASONS IT SOUND INCREDIBLE. HARD TO BELIEVE THE RECORD IS 28 YEARS OLD. THERE'S ONE SMALL YELLOWING SPOT ON ONE OF THE LABELS. THE RECORD COMES WITH A GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD ALBUM JACKET N NO SEAM SPLITS. THERE'S A HAND WRITTEN INFORMATION PIECE OF PAPER WRITTEN IN INK. THE RECORD ALSO COMES WITH A HIGH QUALITY INNER SLEEVE AND A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE.
