Description

Very rare signed copy of Blitzkrieg Buried Alive/Blitzkrieg 7" single. Vinyl is VG+. I got this from a lady in Leicester who knew the band and was given the record by Mick Moore the bass player. I have checked with Brian Ross lead singer and original member of the band and the signatures are authentic ( I can supply the emails to prove this). Entry from Wikipedia: Blitzkrieg are a heavy metal band from Leicester formed in 1980, consisting of Brian Ross (vocals), Ken Johnson (guitar), Alan Ross (guitar), Bill Baxter (bass) and Mick Kerrigan (drums). The line-ups for Blitzkrieg have frequently changed since their formation, as the line-up for their first single differed greatly to the line-up for their most recent album : Back from Hell. As a result of these changes, Brian Ross is the only remaining member from their initial line-up. Blitzkrieg was formed in October 1980 after signing a record deal with Neat Records. In the early stages of their career they regularly produced gigs in England, but then later split in 1981. Brian Ross most notably went on to join Satan, another metal band, along with stints in Avenger, Lone Wolf and Unter den Linden. In 1984 Ross and fellow founding member Jim Sirotto, along with guitarist Mick Proctor (ex-Tygers of Pan Tang), bass player Mick Moore (of Avenger) and drummer Sean Taylor (Satan/Blind Fury, ex-Raven) then decided that it was time to record the Blitzkrieg album that was originally planned to be released in 1981, A Time of Changes. It was later released in 1985. The song "Blitzkrieg" was then covered by popular American band Metallica on the Creeping Death EP. Metallica's drummer, Lars Ulrich commented that Blitzkrieg was one of their main influences, along with Diamond Head[ This item would be well placed in a Metallica collection. Free post to the UK. I will ship abroad, postage abroad at the correct rate for the country. I do not mark up on postage. Great chance to own a unique one of a kind record thanks
