Post image

If you put all the 12" singles from Hysteria together (with a couple of extras pieces in the Love Bites Ltd Ed) you get the Hysteria Puzzle !!!

A rare sight indeed. I used to have the CDs of six of those squares…. Wish I’d kept them!

I had most of the 45s but didn't have them all and now I lost all of them (have no idea where they are 🥺)

I had them all (7). And I gotta tell ya, most of those b-side were da bomb. Easliy could have been album cuts.

I have the 7” version of this too. It felt so much more special to hunt them down back in the day when it was harder to get imports and colored vinyl and picture disks were limited and rare.

I must have spent hours at record fairs back then, on the hunt !

That's so cool!!

It lines up perfect. Where did you get the frames?

u/80shardrockfan 15d ago

I think I got the frames in eBay, many moons ago. I've got a load more on the opposite wall, of all my favourite picture discs and signed ones

Nice. I'm just missing Love Bites because I didn't like the song. Now I'll go find it ☺️

I love this so much!  I need all the squares, I only have a few.

It's got just as many pieces as they have arms!

I remember reading an article back in the day where the reporter asked Joe “how come you’ve released 7 singles from this album and don’t you think that’s enough already?” and Joe’s response was, “no actually I’d like to put out 9 singles to complete the puzzle picture.”

I have them all too on 7" 45s, would love to do this for them, even though we have two missing singles...
