THIS GROUNDBREAKING LIMITED EDITION LP VINYL OF METALLICA - AND JUSTICE FOR ALL FROM 1988 WITH OFFICIAL COVER ART WORK OF HAJIME SORAYAMA, THE FAMOUS JAPANESE EROTIC ARTIST WHOSE WORK IS KNOWN AND ACCEPTED WITH CONTROVERSY THROUGHOUT THE WORLD.
Extremely Rare and Incredible Limited Edition of Metallica - And Justice For All LP VINYL with Hajime Sorayama cover art. According to my research, Sorayama collaborated with Metallica back in 80s and draw several artworks for Metallica, including cover art for Black Album, various posters and merch. This LP - Metallica ...And Justice For All was published for Brazilian market only, in Brasil 1988 as a pre-release in very limited volume without any additional cover or promo. This LP contains also a typo / misspelling of the last song "Dyers Eve" which is shown as "Dyers Eye". Also based on reviews, sound quality of this LP is lower, comparing to official release later on. And track To Live To Die has incorrect duration - 5:12. This makes this LP highly collectible among Sorayama & Metallica collectors. This version is hard to find, sold out and commonly mistaken with regular versions of the album printed in same year.
Tracklist A1 Blackened - 6:40 A2 ...And Justice For All - 9:44 A3 Eye Of The Beholder - 6:25 A4 One - 7:24 B1 The Shortest Straw - 6:35 B2 Harvester Of Sorrow - 5:42 B3 The Frayed Ends Of Sanity - 7:40 B4 To Live Is To Die - 9:48 ** Incorrect duration, 5:12** B5 Dyers Eve - 5:12 ** Misspelled on the print, it says Dyers Eye**

BIO: Hajime Sorayama: Hajime Sorayama is a Japanese illustrator, known for his precisely detailed, erotic hand painted portrayals of women and feminine robots.
Sorayama's art includes artistic nudity for adult viewers only. It is featured in many projects including those by Nike, Sony, George Lukas, Aerosmith, Playboy, Penthouse, Marvel Comics, Star Trek and Disney media.
Sorayama started his illustration career in Tokyo painting Sexy Robotic forms, objects and pin-up. Intrigued by the effects of light on various metallic surfaces, and always ready for challenges to his technique and imagination, Sorayama began to produce a series of female robotic figures in the late 1970¹s; anatomically correct in form, but appearing to have been fashioned of molten silver.
The "Sexy robot" released at the end of 70's, were born by combining the existing pinup art and robots with chrome body. The ideas that combined bondage, fetish, modern-primitive, biotechnology, and genetic manipulation were presented in the Gynoids released in the late 80's and in 90's, which reached the peak of his pinup art.
