Pressed in USA, May 1981.
Pressed in 1000 copies.
This single where never sold in stores, only handed out by Mötley Crüe at live concerts.
Sleeve has glossy front cover, detailed clear pictures.
White outline boarders around the photos on the back of the sleeve.
Glitter on the center white label (look at in in the sun, you see it).
And the KEY are the matrix numbers, totally different from all the bootleg Copy`s.
Side A matrix* numbers: L-5354, MC 001 A, R-7224, JS XTAL.
Side B matrix* numbers: L-5354-X, MC 001 B, R-7225, JS XTAL.
On side B the "L" in L-5354-X, is superimposed over an "R". The "R" is fainter than the "L". It looks as if the "R" was a mistake and the "L" was etched over it. The "L" is slightly deeper into the vinyl than the "R" beneath it.
Known as the "DHP Copy".
Pressed in USA, 1984-1985(?), by a huge Mötley Crüe fan with the name Carry Doll(?), she lived in the L.A. area(?), nobody knows how many singles there were pressed...
