What you have here is a rare and UNIQUE 12" TEST PRESSING of THE SMITHS / MORRISSEY from 1983. AN ORIGINAL TEST PRESSING IN AMAZING CONDITION AND A MUST !!!
This must be one of the rarest SMITHS / MORRISSEY promo items out there as I have only seen one other one for sale many years ago - THE 12" TEST PRESSING for the "THIS CHARMING MAN (NEW YORK MIX) !!!
This version was rushed to radio by the late great Scott Piering who was The Smiths manager in the early days and later on went to do their promotion, and as you can see from the photos IT COMES WITH A UNIQUE SLEEVE MADE BY SCOTT HIMSELF !!!
As a result what you have here is a UNIQUE SMITHS PROMO ITEM that I am sure you will never see again, SO DO NOT MISS ON THIS CHANCE !!!
This copy also comes with 2 labels that were attached losely to the white labels and detached over time !!!
The dead wax matrixes are: SIDE1: RTT 136 NY A1 and GG2 and MVSS 2 and TIMTOM - CBS, SIDE 2: RTT 136 NY B1 and GG2 and MVSS 1.
The single came out through ROUGH TRADE Records, and was given the catalogue number of RT 136 (NY).
The tracks are: THIS CHARMING MAN (NEW YORK MIX) /THIS CHARMING MAN (NEW YORK INSTRUMENTAL).
The condition of the vinyl is EX+++/ MINT- (PLAYED ONCE), UNIQUE HAND MADE SLEEVE is in EX condition + 2 LABELS !!!
