Crisp black-and-white photos run thru each issue as does wonderful multi-colored typography and design. Magazine-formatted uniform tall quartos in their stapled pictorial wrappers. A razor-thin innocuous crease running vertically along all of the front covers; otherwise each issue is clean and crisp and easily VG to Near Fine. Internally immaculate as well with no writing or markings to any of the issues. One of the great undertakings in early French and international cinema. <br/><br/> Pathe Freres paperback books

Scarce. Formed in 1976 Diamond Head was part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal NWOBHM which drew on the hard rock of the 1970s and infused it with the intensity of punk rock to produce fast and aggressive songs. The DIY attitude of the these bands led to the spread of raw-sounding self-produced recordings that were crucial to the rise of thrash and other extreme metal subgenres. Few NWOBHM bands are as revered as Diamond Head who have been acknowledged as an important influence on Metallica and Megadeth among many others. In fact prior to a performance of the Big Four Metallica Megadeth Anthrax and Slayer at the 2011 Sonicsphere Festival in Knebworth drummer Lars Ulrich said that there was "a pretty good chance that none of us would be here" without Diamond Head guitarist Brian Tatler whose songwriting credits include essential cuts like "The Prince" "It's Electric" "Helpless" and "Am I Evil" . yes I am. unknown books
