''Too Fast for Love'' is the debut studio album by American heavy metal band Mötley Crüe. The first edition of 900 copies was released on November 10, 1981, on the band's Leathür Records label. Elektra Records signed the band the following year, at which point the album was remixed and partially re-recorded. This re-release, with a different track listing and slightly different artwork (e.g., red lettering on the cover and a different interior photograph of the band), has become the standard version from which all later reissues derive. The original mix of the album remained unreleased on CD until 2002, when it was included in the ''Music to Crash Your Car to: Vol. 1'' box set compilation. While the album only reached number 77 on the ''Billboard'' 200 album chart in the United States, it would ultimately reach platinum status.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=RIAA Gold & Platinum database-''Too Fast for Love'' )〕 The songs "Stick to Your Guns" and "Live Wire" were released as singles for the album. The album cover is a tribute to The Rolling Stones' album ''Sticky Fingers''. ==Release history== There are three known vinyl pressings of the Leathür Records version, along with one known cassette release. Any CD versions of this are bootlegs and NOT official. The first vinyl pressing had white lettering on the cover and the record label was white with black lettering. The back cover photo of Vince Neil shows him with a large airbrushed hairdo. The second pressing has red lettering on the cover and the record label is again white with black lettering. The second pressing also has a slightly different photo insert of the band. The third pressing has red lettering on the cover and the record label is black with white lettering. The album was remixed under the supervision of Roy Thomas Baker and re-released on August 20, 1982, by Elektra Records, with which the band had recently signed its first recording contract. The Elektra version had a different track order and omitted the song "Stick to Your Guns", as well as the first verse from the title track. However, the initial release of the album on Elektra in Canada (on both vinyl and cassette) was not the remixed version, but instead was the original Leathür Records version with the Elektra label on it, and included the song "Stick to Your Guns". This was released two months before the remixed version was released by Elektra worldwide. The reason for this was that Mötley Crüe was about to embark on a Canadian tour and Elektra wanted to ensure that a product was available while the band was touring the country. Once the remixed version was completed, later Canadian pressings were the same as the Elektra version everywhere else. In 1996, Mötley Crüe and Elektra split. Mötley Crüe once again made their own record company called Mötley Records, and re-released all the albums before ''New Tattoo''. The re-released 2002 version of ''Too Fast for Love'' includes the Leathür version of the song "Too Fast for Love", the unreleased tracks "Toast of the Town" and "Stick to Your Guns", the covered song "Tonight" and the live version of "Merry-Go-Round" as bonus tracks. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Too Fast for Love」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
