 Here we offer an absolutely STUNNING, possibly unplayed, ORIGINAL FIRST PRESSING near MINT TEST PRESSING of U.S. Editions EG ENO 5 LP, "Apollo - Atmospheres and Soundtracks", by Brian ENO with Daniel Lanois and Roger Eno, issued in 1983. As you may know, ENO TEST PRESSINGS are pretty difficult to come by, are very LIMITED in number, and are the VERY FIRST PRESSINGS, predating the official releases, promo or commercial! The VINYL here is near mint (we never grade any record as mint...), and possibly unplayed. The VINYL has white TEST PRESSING labels with "Hub-Servall Record Mfg. Corp" on them (Hub-Servall was the pressing plant for the LP), and they are clean & bright! The cover is the usual plain WHITE test pressing sleeve with the TEST PRESSING COVER SHEET taped onto the front. PLEASE CHECK ALL PHOTOS as they are part of the description...sorry they are a bit dark! Outstanding and lovely ENO collectable offered with NO RESERVE!

We do NOT make ANY money from this service, which costs $30.95 U.S. (single LP) for Europe and Japan (CANADA will be a bit less, estimated at $24.50 REGISTERED).

***PLEASE REMEMBER*** We do pack and ship very quickly BUT Media Mail is the USPS' slowest service for parcels in the USA, and that INTERNATIONAL parcel shipping time can vary greatly by country. If customs "holds" a parcel, delivery time is even slower, and that is NOT in our control! So please check the date of your payment & our shipping date for a more accurate account of shipping time! For EXPENSIVE LPs we recommend PRIORITY MAIL for safer handling within the USA.
