WHY THIS RECORD MATTERS

"Too Fast for Love" launched Mötley Crüe into the national spotlight after Elektra Records signed the band in 1982 and re-released their self-pressed debut with a new mix. The album eventually went platinum and remains a foundational release of the LA glam/sleaze metal scene, featuring "Live Wire," "Piece of Your Action," and the title track.

CONDITION

VINYL: VG+ approaching Excellent — Clean grooves with good sheen. Plays with good clarity. Light signs of age consistent with a 40+ year-old record, nothing that detracts from the listening experience.

COVER: VG+ — Iconic black-and-white cover photo with bold red Mötley Crüe logo displays well. Light wear on edges and corners consistent with age. No splits, no water damage. Inner sleeve included.

I grade conservatively using Goldmine standards.
