RATT – From The Streets To The Strip / Rarities Collection Part 1 (2022)
Seems you never have enough RATT as many of you ask over and over agan for rare material from the band. Here’s “From The Streets To The Strip Rarities Collection Part 1“, a bootleg CD – but very well done.
The sound quality is good including, among others, the very first version of ‘Tell The World’ recorded as RATT originally only appeared 1981, on the rare 1st pressing of ‘Metal Massacre I’, the famous compilations with unsigned bands, early ’83 / ’89 demos, live tracks captured at The Rock Palace for TV in Hollywood, CA, 1984, and more.
And the packaging is excellent; a slipcase and 16-page booklet (album cover different from the front slipcase pictured here), including many rare photos of the band, and memorabilia and details about each track.
Limited to 300 copies, the CD has become hard to find.
