Description

TEST PRESSINGS, often known as white label pressings, are copies produced from the masters by the pressing plants in tiny quantities of between ten and thirty copies. These test discs are then sent to the artists and record companies for approval before the main manufacturing is commenced. 
These discs are very rare and much sought after by collectors as these are the working copies intended for the artists and label executives to check that the vinyl mastering process is true to the master tapes. The discs were not created for retail sale as part of a manufacturing run. They are genuine test pressings used at work in the industry by the artists and record labels.
PINK FLOYD - THE SPACE ROCK ERA: TEST PRESSING
This anthology features the live to air broadcasts featuring Pink Floyd from 1967 to 1968. 
The early radio and TV broadcasts by Pink Floyd featured tracks such as Astronomy Domine, Interstellar Overdrive and Set The Controls for the Heart of the Sun. Album tracks such as Cirrus Minor and the wonderful image on Ummagumma featuring the band's equipment laid out to form the image of a spaceship helped to underline what was considered to be a space rock theme.
