The reason for the tenacity and hard rock flavor of this incredible masterwork was that Twisted Sister had already been playing and honing their skills both in the studio and on stage since the early seventies, and they truly had their sound and original stage show well rehearsed, and they were truly ready for superstardom.
Friday Music is very pleased to announce the 40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition release of “Under The Blade.” Mastered impeccably by Joe Reagoso (Twisted Sister/Thin Lizzy/Jeff Beck) from the Secret Records, Atlantic Records, and Twisted Sister Archives, this masterwork will be manufactured on Metallic Silver Blade Vinyl.
Compiled by Twisted Sister’s Jay Jay French and Friday Music’s Joe Reagoso, “Under The Blade/40th Anniversary Deluxe Edition” will truly be one of the more important historic hard rock revisits in recent memory.
This incredible 2 Lp set not only collects the original Secret Records mix of their debut album, it also collects a ton of unreleased live and rare studio moments leading up to the 1982 overseas release. For instance, you will hear the entire Pete Way 1982 mix of the Secret Records Lp, out of print for decades, which includes hits like “Destroyer” “Under The Blade” and “Tear It Loose”, as well as the super rare Minot Sound recordings of “Come Back” and “Rock And Roll Saviors.”
Side 3 & 4 are simply non-stop rarities including the much discussed, but never released ultimate live Led Zeppelin Medley, which includes some incredible interpretations of “How Many More Times”, “Good Times Bad Times, “Dazed And Confused”, “Heartbreaker” just to name a few… and then a nod to Aerosmith with a great cover of “Toys In The Attic” More Twisted Sister choice vault tracks abound with “I’ll Never Grow Up Now” & “Lady’s Boy” from their rare self-distributed 45 RPM single, plus even more rare moments like their demo versions of Bad Boys (Of Rock ‘n’ Roll) and “You’re Not Alone (Suzette’s Song).”
To further enhance your Twisted Sister experience, as the band has taken great pride in collecting their history and keeping it intact for the fans, we are also including rare photos from The Barn sessions, including rare Jay Jay French diaries and recording itinerary never before seen in album cover form. This is truly what the fans have been asking for and Twisted Sister is delivering the goods!!!
