KEITH TIPPETT Trio - Unreleased Test Press LP       




                    ..Label / Catalogue number :  

 HS12001


                    ..Year of release :     1965 - 1966
                                                                                               .Special Information :  

Rare Unissued test press from the 60's. I can only find one other copy ever sold on ebay.
Since there is so little information concerning this lp i have copied a large portion of the information supplied by the previous  seller (i hope they do not mind!)

"Firstly she purchased the record from Keith himself. My mum used to run the door/take the money for Keiths band when they played a regular Saturday lunchtime gig at the DUG OUT CLUB in Bristol in the mid 60s. Her then boyfriend played flute in the ensemble. He is however not on the LP.

This 8-track LP was apparently recorded in London (Keith still lived at home in Bristol at the time), in either 1965 or 1966.

It features Keiths piano playing accompanied by drums and bass. My mum remembers only one of the other musicians as "Bob".

She is pretty sure there were only 5 COPIES PRESSED. Seems a very low amount but she is adamant.

There is reference to an unreleased test pressing LP on a US Keith Tippett discography site. Its almost definitely the same LP. On the site the run out groove number is listed as HS 001 A/B, this is definitely stamped HS 12 001 A/B. It also states recording as 1967 but my mum says its definitely earlier than that. It sounds it too"


The little information i have on this lp goes some way to support this: The original owner made her own sleeve, including a full track listing. She also wrote her address on this sleeve, which is in Bristol. My guess is she know Keith Tippett (or another member of the Trio) and  either was presented with a copy or bought one.

Interestingly the annotated sleeve also gives songwriting credits on all tracks Mostly they are credited to Tipps (i assume this is Keith Tippett) and Lewis (presumably another member of the trio)
