Get It While It's Hot/ Don't Close Your Eyes

From a warehouse find, this is a new, unplayed stock copy, in its original picture sleeve. This is an interesting case... As the picture sleeve makes plain, "Get It While It's Hot" was the intended A side. But as was so often the case over the course of Pop music history, radio programmers had a different idea and began playing the B side, which went on to become the Hagerstown, MD, band's biggest hit! The A side is a raucous Metal thrasher that would make AC/DC proud, while the "hit" side is an (in my opinion) undistinguished Power Ballad. Still, great picture sleeve! Note: This 45 has no notable flaws, grading Mint across the board (Labels, Vinyl, Audio), and the picture sleeve is nearly flawless!
