Description

  • Meat Loaf released his debut album "Bat Out Of Hell" in October 1977 on Cleveland International / Epic Records. It is one of the best selling albums of all time with over 50 million copies sold. It was produced by Todd Rundgren and all the songs were written by Jim Steinman. Roy Bittan, Max Weinberg, Ellen Foley, and Edgar Winter were among the backing musicians.

  • This Promo copy of (PE 34974) is from the First Pressing and is in excellent condition. The cover still has its gloss and along with the two-sided Inner Lyrics sleeve are easily VG+. Please see the pictures. The disc test plays cleanly and is also VG+ which is as high as I go on vintage vinyl. It was mastered by Joe Brescio at the Master Cutting Room in NYC and I believe this copy was pressed at the Columbia Records plant in Pitman, N.J.  The Side One dead wax is etched AL-34974 4A MCR CE.

  • In addition to its original packaging, this album will come with a high quality Anti-Static Round Bottom Inner Sleeve to hold the vinyl disc and a sturdy 3 mil. polyethylene Archival Quality Outer Sleeve.

  • Free shipping is included in the special corrugated album mailer seen in the last picture.

  • This vintage 12" vinyl album has been sitting upright on a shelf in climate controlled storage for the past 44 years. It has not been played in decades other than a quick test spin for this sale which found no skips or obvious flaws. Like all used records it should be cleaned and wiped with an anti-static brush to minimize the occasional pops that are part of playing vinyl albums. Buyers should note that this is a well-cared for but used record and it will have some minor imperfections.
