Description

Part 3 in the NWOBHM singles replica series

Mini cd replica of the legendary NWoBHM single from Overdrive. Original artwork, layout design, and the same tracks like on the original single. Official reissue authorized by the band in a limited run of 500 copies only.

The Lincolnshire act Overdrive were formed as way back as May 1977. In 1980 they released their own slice of legendary N.W.O.B.H.M. vinyl (on the Boring Grantham label), featuring the tracks On the Run, Nightmare and Stonehenge. This single was made in only 500 copies and were sold-out almost immediately. In the book “The N.W.O.B.H.M. Encyclopedia” (I.P. Publishing) expert Malc Macmillan raved about the single: “The muscial contents elicit some reasonable strong comparisons with cult heroes Witchfinder General or the West Midlands version of Scarab, particularly on Stonehenge and the atmospheric Nightmare, with Steve Farmer delivering his best Ozzy Ozbourne impersonation in places.

Track list:
1. On The Run
2. Nightmare
3. Stonehenge
