Now THAT is some Proper HM-Collector Pron!!
To be 100% honest, I think this is a new world record in Most Obscure Top-Rarities Compiled In A Handful Of Pics, on this forum or elsewhere. That's some impressive work tracking all of those down... I can't help being especially impressed by how you nailed some of those Swedish ones. That's the first copy of the 2nd Jackwave 7" I've even heard about in the hand of a collector, outside the band themselves. Also the 2nd copy of Big Hozz I've ever seen (...though the other copy did have the picture sleeve
)
Will get back to you w/ some Q's about some of those pearls via pm soon...
Thanks for the kind words man!!!! It certainly took some work, but a labor of love as I’m sure most here would agree. That Jackwave tp is one of the ones I was talking about in my comment to Ripper that I sold off some spares to finance the purchase
it was a good chunk of change, but I got it directly from the band, along with the first 7”, Jackwave demo and Arabian Hugs demo (pre Jackwave) + the recent compilation CD. And honestly the price I paid for all that stuff is what I was willing to pay for the TP alone, so everything else was kinda just icing on the cake.
I’ve had a hard time getting a real answer about the Big Hozz picture sleeve, seems it was a one off / hand made deal for one copy that went to a radio station,as much it kills me inside a little bit to not have that pic sleeve, I have somehow managed to accept it as is
…..-1 for missing Big Hozz hand made pic sleeve /// +1 for the Thynn Ice TP with one of a kind hand made pic sleeve
Sorry it took me so long to respond, life’s been busy, but shoot me any questions you have, I’ll try to get back to you a little faster this time!!

Had nothing to do yesterday so I compiled a picture of a bunch of black and white hard rock/metal records. Thought it looked cool!

Here’s the Heavy Load demo tapes, promo tape of full speed at high level sent to radio stations, stronger than evil master tape, master for a radio live show etc. Bottom is two copies of stronger than evil and a promo tape from Mill with snippets of various bands, heavy load being one of them with a male voice describing the music before each song sample.

I 'd be dying to see photos of all the tapes with song titles etc
''Burned by love'' demo?? wtf! These tapes should be digitized asap to preserve their metal history!
I am more than eager to do that for free

Missed this comment since way back - and yeah this is a bit picky and periferal but I figure crazy collectors might want the details:
The Big Hozz sleeve was indeed professionally printed, a glossy wrap-around design, intended for the official relase. That never happened. Got scans.
