Too Fast for Love (1981) is where the whole Mötley Crüe story begins — raw, dangerous, DIY, and absolutely bursting with the sleaze‑metal DNA that would define the Sunset Strip.
This imported reissue recreates the Elektra‑era version of the album, complete with the classic leather‑and‑studs cover, crisp jacket reproduction, and the definitive 10‑track lineup.
The remaster gives the record a cleaner, more balanced sound while keeping the grit, tape‑hiss charm, and street‑level energy of the original Leathür sessions. It’s the perfect way to own the Crüe’s debut without chasing expensive early pressings.
Why Crimson Vinyl Stocked It
Because Too Fast for Love is essential — the foundation of glam metal, the birth of the Crüe, and a record that still sells instantly at Perth fairs.
Original Aussie and US pressings are either thrashed or pricey, so this reissue fills a crucial gap: affordable, great‑sounding, and a must‑have for anyone building the classic Crüe run from Too Fast for Love through Dr. Feelgood.
