This boys and girls is the Portuguese pressing of 1983 studio album Piece Of Mind.
This pressing is a bit rare because, as we all now, the last track of this album is To Tame A Land, inspired in a book, Dune, written by Frank Herbert. The guys asked him permission to use the name of the book as the title for one song but the fuckin bastard refused!! SO, they just changed the song name, BUT, at the time, the album was already on the factory to be pressed, and, if I'm not mistaken just in Portugal and Italy they didn't had time to change it and it was always pressed with the Dune title instead of To Tame A Land. This is the story! You can click on the photo to enlarge and see more closely this great detail.
Piece of Mind was released in 16/05/1983 and reached the number 3 in the UK top chart.
