TEST PRESSINGS

Test pressings, often known as white label pressings, are copies produced from the masters by the pressing plants in tiny quantities of between ten and thirty copies. These test discs are then sent to the artists and record companies for approval before the main manufacturing is commenced.

These discs are very rare and much sought after by collectors as these are the working copies intended for the artists and label executives to check that the vinyl mastering process is true to the master tapes. The discs were not created for retail sale as part of a manufacturing run. They are genuine test pressings used at work in the industry by the artists and record labels.

QUEEN - UNDER PRESSURE IN AMERICA

THE VERY BEST OF QUEEN LIVE ON AIR

This release features highlights from the concert broadcast from Houston on the 11th December 1977, which captures the band hard at work promoting the album News Of The World.

Although Europe, South America and Japan all quickly fell in love with Queen, North America was a much tougher nut to crack and this is a perfect record of Queen working hard to achieve that elusive goal.

Also available here are Queen's classic performances on Saturday Night Live in 1982.
