Here is the beginning of it all. Most
fans never heard of this gem. This is the first recording with John
and Criss Oliva. This is PRE-Avatar! Criss plays bass on this
record! According to Dr. Killdrums only a handful of these exist.
The band is called Metropolis USA and the songs are Let's Get Rowdy
and Take off With The Crowd. Private pressed and the Rarest of the
Rare. Worth around $1200.00.

Beware of BOOTLEGS!
Avatar City Beneath the Surface promo
7''. I bought this item from a person that worked in radio in
Florida and had some of the rarest Savatage items I ever saw.
He told me this is a promo copy of the Avatar 7''. It came without
the normal Avatar picture sleeve and has Not For Sale stamped on it.
I asked Dr. Killdrums personally about this. He said the first
12 or so copies WERE issued without picture sleeves and this
could be one of those . He didn't examine it personally so I'm still
not 100% convinced it is authentic. Any fans with info please
e-mail.
