Description

Queen - Hammer To Fall 12" Vinyl – Withdrawn Sleeve

Label: EMI
Catalogue Number: 12QUEEN 4
Country: UK
Original Release: 1984
Pressing Year: 1984

Description

Original 1984 UK 12" pressing of Queen's Hammer To Fall, complete with the much harder-to-find withdrawn live picture sleeve.

The sleeve was quickly withdrawn and replaced, making this a nice variation for Queen collectors. The record itself features the extended Headbanger's Mix of Hammer To Fall, backed with Tear It Up.

A great Queen 12" and one of those slightly unusual versions that you don't come across as often as the standard release.

Pressing Notes

Original UK EMI pressing, catalogue number 12QUEEN 4, with the withdrawn live picture sleeve. This is the original sleeve that was replaced shortly after release.
