Description
This is Metallica's Ride the Lightning Double LP released by Megaforce/Music For Nations Records. I bought this record brand new in 1986 and it has never been played (I have never even taken the records out of their sleeves). On the back of the record cover is the following code: Music For Nations - MFN 27 DM. The records and the sleeves are in excellent condition, and the cover is in almost perfect condition except on the back cover there is some slight wear at the right of Cliff's picture, and there is some wear on the bottom edge of the cover where it folds. But to be honest it is in almost mint condition (if you would like more pictures just let me know). I did not want to sell my collection, but my wife and I had a second child recently and I have simply ran out of room in my house. The record has been stored in a smoke free environment and very well taken care of. Furthermore, I always package the items I sell on ebay with extreme care, so you can be confident that you will receive the record without any damage from shipping.
The album has typos also. Above the pictures on the inside cover, Kirk Hammett's named is misspelled as Kirk Hammet, and on the album itself the song For Whom the Bell Tolls is listed as For Whom the Bells Tolls. The typos can be seen in the pictures.
I also collected audio and video bootlegs of my favorite bands over the years, and since I need to make room in my house, I am also giving away one show of your choice to the winning bidder. Unfortunately, I don't have many Metallica shows anymore, but I do have an amazing Megadeth collection (some extremely rare and almost impossible to find). So, the winning bidder can choose one show from the following lists.
