Lots Of Metallica.

Like I mentioned earlier, natalia112345 has made the jump from hardcore to metal, and if you’re a Metallica or an Anthrax fan there’s quite a bit of it to be had. For today, let’s look at the Metallica selections… let’s start things off simple, with the Megaforce versions of three of the best records:

Next, as mentioned, is a rare collectors item, but like Josh says, thanks to eBay you can get your own with relative ease. If the price is right, anyways…

And of course we have a bootleg or two…

I love the V artwork on the Death Mission boot. That mini series was great back in the day. Haven’t been too able to get into the new one though. Metallica and V have that in common.

I remember back in the mid 80′s when I started collecting records I was really into Metallica at the time. I was lucky enough to get copies of all the LPs up to that point, plus some picture disc versions, some interview picture discs, some live bootleg vinyl and singles of Creeping Death & Jump in the Fire. I also heard about a single for ‘Whiplash’ but was told it was imposible to find and was really expensive so I assumed I would never have one.

Well during one of our regular family trips to Lukes Record Exchange in Pawtucket, RI (which recently closed after almost 30 years in business!) was was flipping through the Metallica section and I found the mythical Whiplash 12″ single! I was shocked and grabbed it immediatly! I was even more shocked that the price in it was $4! I inspected the vinyl and it was far from mint condition. It has visable scratches on it, but I didnt care because now I had Whiplash!

Well years later eBay has made it so everyone can have Whiplash in much better condition than mine for only a few dollars more….
