Description


R.E.M. / REM
A: Tighten Up
B: -blank-
[BUCKETFUL OF BRAINS, BOB 5 / LYN 15742, UK]

HOLY GRAIL TIME for open-minded funk collectors and R.E.M. fans alike. Yes, this is the R.E.M. and they deliver a BANGING (mostly instrumental) version of "Tighten Up". Have a listen below!

This was released in february 1985 as a one-sided flexi 7" which came with issue number 11 of the "Bucketfull Of Brains" magazine. Here however you have the original 7" TEST PRESSING, pressed on solid VINYL (not flexi!). This has got the exact same matrix scratchings in the run-out groove as the flexi (  LYN-15742-1S   .Z.   S  ) and this vinyl test pressing was used to see what the finished product would sound like. I have NEVER seen another copy of this item for sale. Test pressings are usually only made in editions of 5 or 10 so rest assured this is a SUPER RARITY and it is in amazing condition as well. Dont miss out!!!

Vinyl condition: M-
