Description

Rare test pressing of The Roses 'Second Coming' double album.

Only 10 test pressings were made for each album released by Simply Vinyl. 5 copies of these were destroyed at source, so this is one of the 5 remaining copies!

All SV TPs were either packaged in a plain white die cut white card sleeve (early releases) or grey/silver custom SVLP sleeves. However, this copy is packaged inside an SVLP111 'Second Coming' gatefold sleeve.

The gatefold sleeve has very slight storage wear - a small ding on the bottom left-hand corner and a 2cm seam split along the top centre, apart from that it is excellent.

The vinyl is in excellent condition with few light paper/poly-lined scuffs and only one spindle mark on each side. There is a slight (1cm) scratch halfway through 'Tears' which thankfully is not audible.
The 180 gram double LP was manufactured at Record Industry in the Netherlands and sounds amazing.

Tracklist:
Side One:
Breaking Into Heaven
Driving South

Side Two:
Ten Storey Love Song
Daybreak

Please take note of the price increase in postage, which is due to the Royal Mail whacking their prices up considerably, especially for overseas shipments!
Anyone who wishes to bid outside the UK, I would recommend paying extra for the RM International Signed For service, just to be on the safe side.
I will not be held responsible for 'missing' records in the post.

Payment to be received no later than 3 days of the auction ending.

Feel free to contact me with any questions regarding this auction.

I will be sporadically listing a few records from my personal collection over the coming months, so please add me as a Favourite Seller. The records listed have either been picked-up or upgraded along my (record collecting) ways, and are now surplus to requirements.

Thank you for looking!

(I have been collecting, buying, selling and trading records since my mid-teens and would like to think I am fair with gradings and starting prices. As of May 2012, I am new to selling records on eBay (I am VERY good at buying them!), so if you are the highest bidder/winner and have any issues with your purchase, please contact me before leaving feedback)
