Description
This is the ORIGINAL ACETATE for the classic Bad Brains- Pay to Cum EP. This was given by the Bad Brains to the guy who ran ROIR, who gave it to his son, who sold it to a record store a few years ago where I bought it for an arm and a leg. This this is the real deal, and as far as I know this is the only one in existence. Thus, this is the crown jewel of all that is holy and good in the world of Bad Brain collecting, and since I've never heard of a test press existing for this record this is IT. Damn. I have played this record twice to ensure that it has no skips or pops and is indeed what it claims to be. As you can see it has the Masterdisk labels that have TYPE WRITTEN band/label/and pressing info. The label states that this acetate was made on January 25th 1980. God damn this thing is cool and I can't believe I'm selling it.
If you have questions then just hit me up and here's some info:
- buyer covers shipping - shipping on here is crazy and will be more than Ebay allows. - I'll ship it however you want, but if something happens in shipping then I'm not responsible - When it comes to payment I will add a small amount to cover processing fees - Payment is expected with 48 hours. Don't bid if you can't pay in 48 hours
Also, if you don't know what an acetate is:
An acetate disc is cut prior to the cutting of the master disc which is used for mass production of records. Even though referred to as an "acetate", it is essentially an aluminium disc coated with a fine film of nitro-celluolose lacquer with no acetate in it at all! I can tell you right off the bat that they're nothing special to look at. They do not come in a frame. There is NO picture sleeve, and no special artwork on the record labels. Most acetates are 10" round, but the actual music record grooves are usually 7" in diameter. A 7" single is usually cut on a 10" disc, a 12" single or LP is cut onto a 12" disc.
