Wanted - a few old demos I used to play a lot
(wanted - downloads or traded tape dubs, via snail mail)

Ir77 (Britain) - "Black Dawn" demo tape (UK, England)
heavy metal (late 1980s / 1990 or 1991), had a photocopied cover on blue paper.
- alternative metal / NWOBHM / semi-prog thrash. I think they used a drum machine.

Ritual (Texas) - "Metal Abyss" 1985 (rehearsal?) demo https://www.metal-archives.com/bands/Ritual/115090

Dragon's Raid (Texas) , an associated band that appeared afterward. I know they played concerts as I had a lot of gig flyers. No idea if they recorded a demo, but there probably were rehearsal / live tapes. The drummer / tapetrader I knew, for whatever reason did not copy me anything.

from an old email, a few years ago, when talking about Ritual and Eldritch Rite -

"...Funny that you asked Steve (Murphy) about the bonus tracks on the ER CD.
I was also thinking that Thrash your Face and Execution were technically Ritual recordings."
- John Galvan, Interment (Guitar)

John said Andy was also asking for the Ritual tape, as his copy is gone.

I am fairly sure Andy TerHaar was also the drummer in Dragon's Raid.
I thought he said they were a power metal band.
Andy used to send me a TON of their gig flyers every tape trade, and yet, would NEVER send me any recordings.

If I had my old penpal letters, then could know once again. He remains elusive.
He only replied back once to emails I sent over the years.
He has been doing various jobs I learned from what him (and others wrote) - radio dj, managing or working at a club, and maybe managing some black metal/death metal bands.

I keep forgetting
I have a cd-r with some Eldritch Rite mp3's that were not included in the secret bonus mp3 section of the CD,
and could also be Ritual recordings.
Will dig into it later.
Unfortunately, any Ritual mentions online, do not mention song titles, so it makes it difficult to figure out.
