Description
This is a White Label Test Pressing Vinyl of Jeff Buckley's album Grace. Issued by Simply Vinyl. ONLY 50 COPIES OF THESE EXIST. It includes a memo from Simply Vinyl. It reads...
"May 1999, Dear Recipient, You have just been sent a Simply Vinyl Test Pressing. Please note that Test Pressings are literally the first new pressings which come off the record presses. Test Pressings are used primarily to double check that everything is in order, for instance, have the right lacquers been used , are the A and B sides correct and does the overall sound quality come up to standards? Please note that because Test Pressings are the first off the presses they are often subject to a greater degree of blips, clicks and pops etc because the whole process generally needs about 70-100 pressings to roll-off before all the grooves are nice and smooth. Hence, when you listen to Test Pressings please be aware that the fidelity, in many cases, may not be up to the standard of a full manufacturing run finished product. Also please note that on occasion the Test Pressings may be of a different weight to the finished copies, for instance, 150 grams instead of 180. This is because the 180 gram presses may be tied up doing other titles for us! Test Pressings may not be as ideal as finished copies in terms of overall fidelity. What you do have however, is a Collectors Item Test Pressing of which there are only 50 copies of each title ever supplied. So cherish accordingly!"
I've been collecting both Tim & Jeff Buckley memorabilia for over 15 years. In that time I've amassed a huge collection... vinyl, tapes, cds, rare pressings, promos, signed items (both of Tim & Jeff), posters, tickets, etc. There's lots and lots of one of a kind items too. Ideally, I'd love to pass this collection to the one collector and not split any of it up, but there's just too many pieces to do that. Alas, I'm going to be selling everything on eBay. If you're a Buckley collector and would like to be kept up to date of when I list an item, please feel free to message me your email address and I'll email you when I upload a new listing. Likewise, if there's anything of interest you think I may have and I'll be sure to list it on eBay sooner rather than later.
Method of payment: Paypal only. INTERNATIONAL BIDDERS PLEASE NOTE, I ONLY ACCEPT PAYMENT VIA PAYPAL.
PLEASE NOTE, I DO NOT ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITY FOR LOST OR DAMAGED ITEMS. IF YOU ARE THE WINNING BIDDER, PLEASE REQUEST A QUOTE AND I WILL GET AN INSURANCE QUOTE FOR YOU TO COVER LOSS OR DAMAGE. DUE TO THE PRICE OF THIS ITEM, I WOULD RECOMMEND INSURANCE.
