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 - PLAYING THE GAME: ARGENTINA 1981

This record features the highlights from the live broadcast of a concert in Buenos Aires on 28th February 1981 when Queen were busy promoting the album 'The Game'.

South America was always much more receptive to Queen. Between the Houston show in 1977 and Argentina in 1981, a string of hit singles and their involvement with the Flash Gordon movie, the Queen stage show had transformed into Something which was now almost unrecognisable from that which had gone before.
