Description

Hello SMFs
I bought these when TS was about to break back in the early 80s.
If memory serves I bought these either at the shows at the Great American Saloon\Agora in New Haven CT or at least one of them at Cutler's Records in New Haven.
The Black Sleeve 45 single has 2 Side A's for Bad Boys of Rock N' Roll. A rarity?
They were played a lot back in the day but haven't been played since the 80's.There is the usual wear and tear for items this old.
Please ask for more pictures or information if needed as I cant guarantee they will not skip or pop if you will try to play them.
Thanks, Frank
Ruff Cutts is the debut EP by the American heavy metal band Twisted Sister, released on July 23, 1982, through Secret Records. 
This 12-inch vinyl EP captures the band in their raw, "pre-fame" state, featuring earlier and grittier versions of tracks that would later become staples of their career.  The EP consists of four tracks, three of which were re-recorded for their debut full-length album, Under the Blade, later that same year:  What You Don't Know  Shoot 'Em Down  Under the Blade  Leader of the Pack (A cover of The Shangri-Las, later famously re-recorded for Come Out and Play in 1985). 
Key Facts  Production:  The EP was produced by the band along with Eddie Kramer, known for his work with Jimi Hendrix and Kiss. Availability:  While originally a UK-only release, the full Ruff Cutts EP was remastered and included as bonus tracks on the 2011 special edition CD/DVD release of Under the Blade. Significance:  It serves as a historical document of the band's "club days" energy before they achieved massive commercial success on MTV with Atlantic Records. 
Original 7-Inch & Rare Pressings Collectors often hunt for the original independent releases from 1979–1980 on the band's own Twisted Sister Records (T.S.R.) label. 
"I'll Never Grow Up, Now! / Under The Blade" (1979): Their first independent 7-inch single. Original copies can range from $29 to $75 depending on condition. "Bad Boys (Of Rock 'N' Roll) / Lady's Boy" (1980): The second independent single. Copies are currently available for approximately $21.34 – $29.95.
