1970 - LESLIE WEST - MOUNTAIN { LESLIE WEST - FELIX PAPPALARDI - CORKY LAING - STEVE KNIGHT } - CLIMBING - 12" VINYL RECORD TEST PRESSING LP WITH A GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET - WHITE TEST PRESSING LABELS - WINDFALL 4501 - THE MATRIX NUMBERS ON THE TRAIL-OFFS ARE: 4501-S A-R 44 4501 SB BESTWAY STERLING RL - ANOTHER INTERESTING THING IS THAT ON THE LABELS IS PRINTED PUBLISHED BY DOWNFALL MUSIC CO., ASCAP. HOWEVER THE NAME OF FELIX PAPPALARDI'S PUBLISHING COMPANY WAS UPFALL AND SOMEBODY CROSSED OUT DOWNFALL AND WROTE UPFALL UNDER IT. I DON'T KNOW WHO WOULD BE CONCERNED ENOUGH ABOUT THAT MISTAKE ON A LABEL OF A TEST PRESSING ENOUGH TO CROSS IT OUT AND WRITE THE CORRECT NAME EXCEPT MAYBE FELIX. SO IT'S POSSIBLE THAT HE MIGHT HAVE DONE IT HIMSELF ALTHOUGH I DON'T HAVE ANY PROOF THAT THIS HAD BEEN FELIX'S COPY. I CERTAINLY DO KNOW THAT HE WOULD HAVE RECEIVED ONE. THE LOOKS AND PLAYS GREAT. VISUALLY I SEE A CIRCULAR SCUFF LINE ON THE FIRST SONG ON SIDE 1 MISSISSIPPI QUEEN. IT'S A SCUFF LINE, NOT A HAIRLINE. IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I PLAYED THIS RECORD AND I JUST PLAYED MISSISSIPPI QUEEN AGAIN. SOUNDS GREAT. DON'T SEE ANYTHING ON SIDE 2. THE RECORD ORIGINALLY CAME IN A PLAIN WHITE PAPER INNER SLEEVE THAT I PUT BACK INSIDE OF THE GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET AND PUT THE RECORD IN A HIGH QUALITY COLLECTOR'S TYPE OF INNER SLEEVE THAT WILL KEEP THIS RECORD SCUFF FREE FOR THE NEXT 50 YEARS. THE RECORD ALSO COMES IN A 4 MIL PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE. CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS.
