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. 

THE CLASH - GUNS FROM BRIXTON 
TEST PRESSING VINYL LP
Guns from Brixton is the legendary cable broadcast from Capitol Theatre, Passaic NJ - 8th March 1980 and features the Clash hard at work promoting the album London Calling. 
This recording features the classic line-up of The Clash which performed together for five years from 1977 to 1982. During those halcyon years of The Clash the band featured lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Joe Strummer, lead guitarist and vocalist Mick Jones, bassist Paul Simonon and drummer Nicky 'Topper' Headon. 
London Calling was the album that really broke the Clash in the USA. From this point onward the band were huge crowd pullers across the states.
