This Acetate Once Belonged to Producer Phil Spector. Artisian Sound Recorders was a major sound mastering Lab in Los Angeles in 1977.
This was probably the first of three known acetates cut for this record album. It is highly likely that no more than five acetates were made for this 1977 record album.

This acetate does come with a special "Artisan Sound Recorders" twelve inch Lp sleeve.
_____________________________________________
This is part of a selection of acetates, test pressings and records from the collection of a Director of Promotions for Apple Records who also worked in the executive office of Phil Spector Productions back from the early 1970s.
Most of the acetates in this collection had standard designated acetate labels but there are some from even earlier in the audio review stage of record production that have no labels at all.These unlabled reference acetates have to be listened to on a record player in order to determine what they are.
This acetate for Leonard Cohen 1977 "Death of A Ladies Man” is one of those labeled reference acetates.
Full album acetates are quite rare.
This acetate was Phil Spector’s personal work acetate. I would say that this acetate was used for making decisions about the final mixes of the songs on the album. All of the songs on this set of acetates are in the same order as they appeared on the original 1977 LP release.
As I said, The former Apple Records employee who owned this acetate set also worked with Phil Spector on a regular basis. I was told by this employee that Phil Spector frequently discarded record production materials, recording equipment and records once he no longer needed those items. This acetate set came from the same collection of records and acetates as the A&M Studio Label Acetates that I sold last month on Ebay that were used in producing the “The Concert for Bangladesh”three record box on Apple Records featuring George Harrison, Bob Dylan, Billy Preston, Ringo Starr and Leon Russell.
