Ghost - Seven Inches of Satanic Panic

Some things get better with age.  Back during the summer of 1969, an up-and-coming band called Ghost, fronted by Papa Nihil, played its first date at The Whiskey A Go-Go on Hollywood’s Sunset Strip.  The show was to celebrate Ghost’s first release on Galaxy Recordings, “Seven Inches of Satanic Panic,” the double-A-side 7-inch single featuring “Kiss The Go Goat” and “Mary on A Cross.”  To celebrate its 50th Anniversary, back in 2019, Ghost ordered a vinyl repressing for this rarity which sold out instantly.   Fast forward 3 more years to 2022 and Ghost have a viral social media moment, bonafide streaming phenomenon, and a certified gold single with "Mary On A Cross". One that has captured a whole new generation of fans and drove the cultural zeitgeist for rock music during this last year.  A moment that calls for a new 7" vinyl pressing, this time on special, never before released purple vinyl.
