Offered here is a holy grail for any MOLLY HATCHET (Bruce Crump, Banner Thomas, Duane Ronald, Dave Hlubek, Danny Joe Brown, and Steve Holland) fan. This scarce promo only box set contains a copy of the eponymusly titled debut Molly Hatchet LP, as well as MOLLY HATCHET LIVE, which was recorded live at the Capitol Theatre in Passaic, New Jersey. Both records have white Epic promo labels. The front of the box includes the classic Frank Frazetta "Death Dealer" image, very similar to the original cover, though the box includes the LIVE banner just below the band name, as well as stating "E/P/A Concert Series" along the front bottom of the cover. The back cover includes the track listing for the two records along with a photo of the band. Though the following is stated, "This special collector's item contains two copies of Molly Hatchet "Live" (AS 528) and one copy of Molly Hatchet (JE 35347)," only one copy of each record is included. The studio record includes a white on black inner sleeve that includes all lyrics to the LP.

Grading Guide as noted in The Standard Catalog of American Records -

NM (Near Mint) - Records are shiny with no visible defects or surface noise when played. Covers should have no ring wear, creases, folds or seam splits. Writing, stickers, or other markings are not allowed.

VG+ (Very Good Plus or EX Excellent) - Records may show slight signs of wear including light scuffs, very light scratches, or slight warps that do not affect the listening experience. There may be light ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticable. Covers can have light creasing at corners, promotion or cut out mark (cut corner, small hole punch or cut in spine), as well as slight signs of ring wear. VG++ is at times used to indicate high end of this grade.

VG (Very Good) - Records can lack most of their original gloss. Groove wear is evident on sight, as are light scratches deep enough to feel with a fingernail. When played, the record will have slight surface noise, even an occasional audible scratch, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and ending, but the noise will not overpower the music otherwise. Covers have minor seam splits. Minor writing, tape or sticker allowable, with possible visible ring wear.

G (Good) - The record still plays through without skipping, so it can serve as filler until something better comes along. It has significant surface noise and groove wear, and the label can be worn with significant ring wear, heavy writing, or obvious damage caused by someone trying to remove tape or stickers and failing miserably. Cover will have significant seam splits, possibly taped closed, highly obvious ring wear and heavier writing.

An extra + or - might be included with there grades to indicate high or low ends of grade.
