PERSIAN RISK Calling For You 7" + Ridin' High 7" + Fully Signed Contract + Signed Photos (Here we have a unique one-off collection of exclusive material obtained directly from the head of the Persian Risk fan club of the early eighties. Hailing from Cardiff, Wales, these guys were at the more melodic end of NWOBHM & were the brainchild of Grammy Award winning guitarist Phil Campbell, a longtime member of Motörhead for 30 years & one of the great heroes of Welsh rock music.
First up, we have an original fully signed contract for the group's recording agreement with Heavy Metal Records. Running across eleven A4 pages, the contract is for the group's contribution to the Heavy Metal Heroes compilation LP [HMRLP7] in 1982, where 'Calling For You' was featured. The whole agreement is typed out in law terms & hand dated 30th July 1982 with the full names & addresses of the participants involved - Carl Sentence, Philip Campbell, Nick Hughes & Russel Lenon - with royalties & an advance on signature of £100 for the cost of production. These private documents are signed on behalf of the label & the last page is signed in blue biro by the entire group! In addition to these one of a kind documents is their rare debut 7" vinyl single 'Calling For You'/ 'Chase The Dragon' [SRTS81/CUS1146] from 1981 with the original picture sleeve, privately pressed in a limited run & now very sought after, as well as their second 7" vinyl single 'Ridin' High'/ 'Hurt You' [NEAT24] from after they signed a contract with the legendary Neat Records in 1983, complete with picture sleeve. Last but not least, we have two large black & white publicity photos of the group. These were promotional-only tools but also appeared amongst fan club bundles. What is unique here is that both are fully autographed by each original group member in blue & black pen. Rock n Roll! All items are in Excellent condition, with some light wear to the picture sleeves & minor signs of play with the vinyl. The signatures are crystal clear, making for a great addition to any metal collection. These are prize items from just one particular band that played their part in the glory days of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal. Prize items from the genre's birth & first discernible movement, when an explosion of heavy metal LPs & indie 45s emerged from all over the UK between 1980 to 1983. In a bid for glory, Persian Risk were one of many unsung bands that took full advantage of punk rock's decline, upping the ante & turning the amps to 11, drawing inspiration from the ferocity & audacity of punk's rush to market & do it yourself attitude in the process. All hail then the mighty Persian Risk!) more...
