My most played album #944. Diamond Head - Borrowed Time. 1981, The second studio album. First release on a major label MCA records. Metallica covered their song "Am I Evil?". The album went to No. 24 on the UK album charts, the band's only album to chart. "Lightning to the Nations" was the title song to the first album but was included on the second album because the first album was really a demo. Very rare, I was lucky to get this when I bought a 3,000 cassette tape collection in 2005 almost all rare metal from New Jersey on Ebay came in two washing machine boxes each about 200 pounds. When the fed ex guy came It was one of the best days of my life.

The album was recorded within seven days at The Old Smythy Studio in Worcester, This album came in a plain sleeve with no title, having on it only a signature of one of the... Read More
