Collectors information / Album Description: 

Motley Crue's debut album "Too Fast for Love" was released in 1982 on 12" vinyl LP. The album featured a mix of hard rock and heavy metal, with influences from punk rock and glam rock. The band's raw, energetic sound and aggressive lyrics quickly gained them a following, particularly among the growing metal scene in Los Angeles.

The album's title track, "Too Fast for Love," became a fan favorite and a staple of the band's live shows. The album's production was rough and raw, reflecting the band's DIY ethos and underground roots.

Despite limited commercial success upon its initial release, "Too Fast for Love" would go on to become a classic of the heavy metal genre, helping to establish Motley Crue as one of the most influential bands of the 1980s. The album's mix of raw energy and catchy hooks set the stage for the band's later commercial success, and its influence can still be heard in the work of countless hard rock and heavy metal bands today.
