Description

Simply Vinyl SVLP265 David Bowie Hunky Dory Ultra rare 180 Gram LP Test Pressing  in M- or better condition.  I have been grading LPs for many years (check the feedback).  It looks unplayed under a harsh light.    LP label looks like the cover and does have the proper catalog numbers in the LP trailoff.  It is very likely that only 3-15 of these exist in the world.

Acetates and Test Pressings are the prototypes and test models of a recording. Before a record is mass produced, it is tested to see if it meets both artistic and technical approval.

The first pressings to be run off the mother are test pressings. It is after this second approval that the record is then mass produced... first promotional copies are pressed, then retail copies. Most test pressings are labeled... some are not.

Several masters can be cut and plated for manufacturing at several plants or to accommodate subsequent stamps. The first pressings of a new stamp are technically better than following pressings, and because test pressings and promotional copies are pressed on a limited run, they usually are more desirable and valuable.

Simply Vinyl manufactures a high quality LP pressed on Virgin Vinyl. The LP sound is unbelievable.
