Description
ARTIST: various artists -
TITLE: "PATHS OF PAIN TO JEWELS OF GLORY" .
FORMAT: …VINYL LP TEST PRESSING…
LABEL: PHANTOM .
CAT. #: PHANTOM-100 .
DATE OF RELEASE: 1983 .
PRESSED IN: AUSTRALIA .
ORIGINAL? : Yes, it is...
...Plain white labels with hand-written catalogue number on one side...
No big deal, but I owned this label back then so any info you get is correct: this is one of only 8 test pressings we made of this compilation of 11 tracks taken from our first 17 releases (one track by each of the artists we signed)...plus...we added in ONE previously unreleased track** each by The Passengers, Shy Impostors, and Flaming Hands...14 tracks in all. Only a few of these tracks have ever appeared on CD. I might appear biased but I reckon it's a freakin' awesome document of what was happening musically in Sydney from 1980-1982. ALL of the original 11 tracks went to Number 1 on the Alternative charts (bar two - Dagoes, and Cockroaches - both Top 3 anyway) in their original formats, so it's not just me touting their collective worth. Here, take a peek at the tracks and do the maths:
1. SUNNYBOYS love to rule
2. PASSENGERS sad day**
3. PASSENGERS girlfriend's boyfriend
4. SHY IMPOSTORS seein' double
5. SHY IMPOSTORS when night comes in**
6. SURFSIDE 6 cool in the tube
7. VISITORS hell yes
8. FLAMING HANDS it's just that i miss you
9. FLAMING HANDS seek & find**
10. MACHINATIONS average inadequacy
11. COCKROACHES shake jump & shout
12. KELPIES take me away
13. LE HOODOO GURUS leilani
14. THE DAGOES ten years on
Adds up to one mighty LP, huh? Anyway, this TP is rare as all hell...it's one of only two I kept for myself.
Comes in its original plain white die-cut card cover....with a review blurb that I must've attached at some stage.
CONDITION:COVER: ( - )...
VINYL: (MINT)...
LABELS: (Side One: MINT / Side Two: MINT)...
If you have any concerns about the accuracy of my gradings, please check my feedback for the odd nice comment from some satisfied folk out there.... (and hopefully you may be able to join their ranks).
You can pay in US$'s or UK pounds or EURO's or Australian dollars.

Thanks for considering this item. Best of luck if you decide to bid...Cheers, Jules.
