General Information Artist: Mötley Crüe Album: Too Fast For Love Label: Elektra Catalog Number: 9 60174-1 Y Format: Vinyl, LP, Album, 2nd Pressing Year: 1982 Country: Printed in U.S.A. Description "Too Fast For Love" is the high-octane debut that ignited the glam metal revolution. This 1982 Elektra Records release is the Second Pressing of the album, following the initial independent release on the band's own Leathür Records in 1981. This edition is historically significant as it represents the band's major label debut. Unlike the first pressing, which featured a raw, unpolished mix, this 1982 version was entirely remixed by Gordon Fordyce under Elektra's direction. This resulted in a more punchy, professional sound that helped the band achieve mainstream stardom. Visually, this second pressing is distinguished by its vibrant red logo, replacing the white logo found on the 1981 original. Condition Vinyl: Presumed MINT (unplayed) Cover: Factory-sealed, never opened Notes for collectors 2nd Pressing (First Elektra): This is the definitive 1982 second pressing of the album and the very first to be issued on the Elektra label. 1981 vs. 1982 Differences: While the 1st pressing (Leathür Records) is a rare indie artifact, this 2nd pressing is the version that contains the famous Gordon Fordyce remix used for all subsequent hits. Original Shrink Wrap: Finding this 1982 edition with its original shrink wrap is a major plus for collectors, as it has protected the white jacket from staining and wear for over 40 years. Major Label Debut: This pressing marks the moment Mötley Crüe moved from the underground Sunset Strip scene to global dominance. Identification: Features the red logo on the front, "9 60174-1" catalog number, and "Printed in U.S.A." on the spine.
