PUBLIC IMAGE LTD METAL BOX 180 g WHITE LABEL TEST PRESSING 3 LP 45 RPM VINYL PIL
Incredibly rare, often only 3 to 6 copies of a test pressing were manufactured before an album was pressed for release. For certain fans, not only are they extremely collectable, but there’s a certain school of audiophiles and fans who feel that test pressings sound better than regular records, as the stampers are fresh and new.
We were lucky to acquire this collection of ‘white label’ test pressings – most of these have never been played or at most 1 or 2 times. So, we’re talking mint and very near mint quality.
Some of the records have hand-writing on the label – but this merely the #catalog number of the recording and/or the name of the artist/album. They come packaged in a plain white sleeve (again, generally clean, with sometimes notes or other information pertaining to that particular recording for the purposes of identifying the test pressing or comments after giving it a listen or two for reference.
