Description

Never say never.  Here is a very rare treasure I thought I could never part with.  My New England sensibility could not let it be destroyed 45 years ago and now it has its place in history.
Here is the rejected test pressing vinyl record copy of Joe Jackson's Look Sharp LP, I have it on good authority that when it was returned without explanation to Monarch Records they simply repressed the exact demo and sent it along for approval.  Joe Jackson himself famously acknowledged his bad behavior towards the recording industry in his memoir.
In the past I have play tested this against a purchased copy and they are exactly the same.
