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.
PRINCE - THE PURPLE ERA - THE VERY BEST OF 1985-'91 TEST PRESSING VINYL LP Prince had an incredible ability to deliver the most amazing performances in the live arena. The proof of that fact lies in the wide variety of performances which were broadcast live to air without a safety net.
