German Heavy Metal legends Running Wild, led by enigmatic front man, Rock N’Rolf Kasparek, single handed invented the pirate metal genre with their 1987 breakthrough album, Under Jolly Roger. After the Death Or Glory tour wound up there was a change of members in the bands ranks, so they headed back to the studio in 1991 and re-recorded the biggest tracks from their first three albums. The result was ‘The First Years Of Piracy’ and thus closed the first chapter in Running Wild’s career.
