Description

This is a VG+ condition, very rare, white label 12" test pressing Bob Marley & The Wailers "Uprising". It was manufactured by Warner Brothers Records for Island Records in 1980. Test pressings were made in advance of regular pressings for quality control purposes. They were very selectively distributed to record label V.I.P.s and the artist and their management for approval. Very few were produced and most copies were destroyed. They were never made available to the general public. The test pressing has white labels with the following printed on them,"Warner Bros. Records Inc. Available only to technical and other authorized personnel for the limited purpose of testing and review". The record comes in a white cardboard jacket. Taped to the front of the jacket is label copy listing the track listings and record company information. It has had one owner, a former record company executive who has had it filed away since 1980.
