The guy selling this on Ebay is from the band and if you look through his feedback you can see him selling these and Electric Eel LP's along with some Pic's for the past few years. Yes 300 press BUT he had most of them and had been putting them on pretty regular in the past
I got a copy from above mentioned seller. At first I didn't receive it, when I opened a case he told me his father had died and that's why he hadn't sent it yet. Still, he kept selling other items on ebay during this time. When it finally did arrive I found out he only paid $3.96 postage but had charged me for $13, but I had already closed the case and can't take action regarding this. So, just a word of warning to all of you who might be interested in getting a copy from him. Shame though, the record was very good!

And Record Karma paid me back BIG time recently, so I can't complain. :)

The guy actually does not know the exact amount of money needed so he speculates a price,he charged me 12$ for an order and when he had sent the parcel he told me that the actual cost was 29$(which made sense),while the first time he had asked something like 13$ for the single(which was less than that of course).He just makes guesses about the cost.He is no fraud though,I;m pretty sure.

I'm awaiting its arrival, don't want to jinx it. But I think it's the best ebay score I've had so far.

Same band as:
Wizard - Marlin, Grog, Madman And The Bomb (1985)

Not very rare, I would say around $30

I'm guessing this is not the same Wizard that did the 'apostle of greed' single?

I had some eMail-exchange with the former drummer Dereck Higgins, who told me that they made 500 copies. No otherreleases, no demos. He is a black guy by the way, so this band was maybe the first one to include a african-american in the line-up?

It is not listed on metal archives yet, but you can see the cover (neatly done!) at popsike.com.
Cool, thanks for the info! I've seen that one but have not heard it. I've seen Higgins' website, he played on a lot of stuff back in the day it looks like.

This was the lineup when I joined the band in 1982..Mike "Sticks Heard was one of only three African/American guys I had met that were into Metal I went to High School with his younger brother Greg not finding out til much later that they were related...

Good to know. Man, i sure love that JONAS GRUMBY single + the songs from the demo tape that is available on the net. Kick ass metal! Did you ever considering a re-release? Any more recordings from that period?
