Description

This is a white label, 180gm test pressing, black vinyl copy of "Mellow Gold", the third studio album by Beck, first released in 1994 and re-issued in 1999 on the Simply Vinyl record label (SVLP 44). It comes housed in a white card sleeve with the album title and artist written on the front in black marker pen.

It is my understanding that there are only 10 test pressings ever made of each record and that they are only given to the label and mastering facility for quality control purposes. Some are then sent to shops as promotional copies. I won this record in February 1999 in a competition in the long defunct record collector magazine, Record Mart and Buyer.

It has never been played and never been taken out of its sleeve.
