Metallica's debut single (and the only one from Kill 'Em All)
Released 20 January 1984 in Europe.

Later released in North America with an additional track and different front cover artwork as "Whiplash"

The two songs on side B are not actually live. They were recorded at The Automatt in October 1983 and mixed with audience recordings.

Does anyone have a side by side comparison photo of this "darker" paper sleeve and the 1984 beige label release that has a "lighter" card cover, but is otherwise identical?

On this version : Is there on side 2 an "embossed bass clef" ?

My copy is red with the center label offset. The grooves go over the label, & it plays (over the label). Never heard of another one.

Can anyone tell me why this is considered a "UK" pressing when the label says it was Made In France?

I have two copies of what appears to be this issue. One is extremely thin, and very dull in colour. The other one is thick, and vibrant in colour. Any ideas?

My version actually states "Made in "England", and has the barcode.

Please email me if you have the cover ONLY to sell (I have the media without cover).
Thanks

Does anyone have any info on the shaped pic disc? Cause I have one that wasnt cut and nobody seems to have any info about it.

I have it in red vinyl shaped pic disc and uncut pic disc. I haven't ever seen the uncut pic disc ever listed.
