Bad For Good - 1981 Dutch Cleveland/Epic label 8-track LP incl. Bonus 7" Single

1981 Dutch Cleveland/Epic label 8-track LP - originally written for and intended to be recorded by Meat Loaf as a follow up to the huge succes of the 'Bat Out Of Hell' album - but ultimately recorded by the songwriter himself with comtributions from Todd Rungren, Karla DeVito and members of the E Street Band.

Vinyls has the 'Cleveland International' labels with top company logo and Epic side logo - LP is held in a card lyric inner sleeve, 7" in a custom picture cover - everything housed in a stickered Richard Corben designed picture cover.

Condition: VG++/VG++ (LP Vinyl and Labels/Inner sleeve)/VG++/VG++ (7" Vinyl and Labels/sleeve)/VG++ (Cover):
Vinyls has almost no signs of play or handling - perfect labels - overall incredible close to perfect vinyl.
LP innersleeve has very faint signs of use... a touch of edge wrinkling - 7" sleeve has faint vinyl outline, LP cover a little edge wrinkling and faint corners wear - inner sleeve, sleeve and cover are all graded near perfect - a very nice copy.
