A VERY rare chance to own an original test pressing of The Specials 1979 debut album; this was pressed in a very, very small quantity to test the sound - with no intention of being available to the public - I have a small number of  test pressings of albums purchased from an ex record executive.

Studied under strong light I can just about make out a few light marks likely from removing the record from it's inner bag.

This is as close to mint as you could possibly get. Just... wow!


I will be selling off a number of rare rock & prog LPs over the next few days; 1st pressings & also test pressings.

Please keep an eye on my listings!!!


The LPs I'm selling are from a well loved personal collection, they have not been cleaned before sale so may have fingerprints or dust.

Will be sent in a lok tab LP mailer & 450g plastic sleeve.

Please expect 3 - 5 working days dispatch and 3 - 5 workings days delivery time after that.

If you're overseas I will send using eBay's Global Shipping Programme - in this instance; eBay decides the final postage cost, not me & the time it takes to reach you might be greater.

Thank you for looking.


Any questions - please feel free to ask, thank you!
