This is one selection out of a highly important collection of acetates, test pressings, standard production records and entertainment awards from a media collection that ranges from the 1950s through the 1990s and was owned by a highly talented and diverse individual who served in a variety of jobs in the music and movie divisions of the entertainment industry most notably  Director in the Promotions Department in the Beatles record company, Apple Records. 

This individual also worked in the executive office of Phil Spector Productions in the early to mid 1970s. Most of the acetates and test pressings in this collection had standard record studio acetate and pressing plant test pressing labels but there are some from earlier in the audio review stage of record production that have no labels at all. Unlabled reference acetates have to be listened to on a record player in order to determine what they are. 

This particular acetate was one of Phil Spector’s personal  acetates. I would say that this acetate was used for making decisions about the final mixes of the songs on the album or 45.

As I said, The former Apple Records employee who owned this acetate also worked with Phil Spector on a regular basis. I was told by this employee that Phil Spector would frequently discard record production materials such as acetates and test pressings, recording equipment and regular production records once he no longer needed those items.  

This acetate came from the same collection of records and acetates as the A&M Studio Label Alternate Acetates that I sold earlier 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.

My name is Christopher Chatman of Beyond Records and I have been writing and dealing in test pressings, acetates, gold record awards and extremely rare music items since 1977. 

I wrote in the 1990s an article called "What is an acetate and why do they cost so much money? The article was published in the 1990 book "Goldmine's Rock N' Roll 45 rpm Record Price"
