Rip and share by Thundertrain, many thanks!
The mega Rare 4-track 12" MLP 'The Dreamer "aka Wet'" with photo of two nude girls (one of which is Wet's girlfriend). Released on clear vinyl and is not a picture disc as some believe, however their second MLP "Hard Attack" was a pic-disc, this one also with a pornografic cover of Wet's girlfriend. The band consisted of Pete Holmes, Kevin Wet, Julian Raymond and Jamie St. James (Black 'n Blue). More info can be found at MusicMight.

Thanks for this - excellent hard rock, just as it should be!
There appears to be some confusion here.
Kevin Wet was from the UK.
I remember reading an article about him in the "Armed & Ready" section of one of the old Kerrang! issues.
Perhaps there were 2 bands called "Wet" or he relocated to the USA later, i'm unsure.
What i do recall is that the girl on the sleeve was indeed his girlfriend, and the other one was her sister!
Thanks.
My mistake, i dug out Kerrang No.5 and re-read the Armed & Ready article, which doesn't actually say where Kevin Wet was from, but suggests he was American.
A quick search shows that he was also the publisher of the US Hard Rock/Metal mag "Hot Wacks", so that pretty much confirms his nationality.
This EP was however released in early 1981.
Hope this is of interest.
Good EP, do you have the second one?
Hi mate, thanks for the info and correction of the release year!. Do you think you could make a scan of this article? (or take a photo), it would be nice to read it.
Regarding the 2nd EP, I don't have it to bad.. but I can ask around, maybe some of the contributors/uploaders have a copy.
Cheers
The link is dead-can anyone reup this-thanks big time.
I also would like a re-up, just now seeing this one. Great artwork!
NEW LINK ADDED
thank you very much again strapp!
Kevin 'Wet' (not his family name) is from Oregon - lives now in Portland. One of the girls may have been his girlfriend, but he didn't have any sisters, just two brothers. Both his parents were teachers.
Could anyone change the link??? Thanks! It doesn't work!
I have both EPs - signed by Kevin. I tried to get his then girlfriend Michelle to sign them at Tower Records in Portland, Oregon, where she worked, but she told me he was picking her up soon and I should have him sign them!
Kevin used to work at Music Millennium in Portland, where he turned me on to debut LPs by both Def Leppard and Iron Maiden in 1980!
I tried to friend Michelle on FB once, but she didn't remember me!
