U2 - THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE - TEST PRESSING - 2 X 1 SIDE - ÜBER RARE - VINYL

 

LOVELY ITEM WHICH I OBTAINED MANY, MANY YEARS AGO AND IS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION

THE NICEST PART OF THIS ITEM IN MY MIND IS KNOWING THAT AT MINIMUM BONO HAS HANDLED THIS VINYL, (IN MY PRESENCE), AND MOST LIKELY OTHER MEMBERS OF THE BAND HAVE DUE THE FACT THEY ARE INCREDIBLY 'HANDS ON' WHEN PRODUCING AN ALBUM

FOR THOSE OF YOU YOUNG ENOUGH TO NOT UNDERSTAND WHAT THIS IS, A 'METAL STAMPER' WAS CREATED WHICH ESSENTIALLY WAS A REVERSE OF A RECORD AND THAT WAS USED TO MAKE THE RECORD..   THE INITIAL STAMP IS KNOWN AS A 'WHITE LABEL' OR 'TEST PRESSING' WHICH IS EXAMINED AND LISTENED TO IN THE STUDIO TO ENSURE ALL IS GOOD

THIS IS A 'WHITE LABEL' OR 'TEST PRESSING' OF 'THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE', IT COMES ON TWO VINYAL DISCS, ONE BEING THE 'A-SIDE' AND ONE BEING THE 'B-SIDE'

IN TERMS OF RARITY IT IS APPROACHING THE LEVEL AT WHICH YOU WOULD NOT EXPECT TO SEE ANOTHER ONE IN YOUR LIFETIME, AND GIVEN THE SONGS SUCH AS 'BAD' , 'PRIDE' , 'THE UNFORGETTABLE FIRE' AND OF COURSE 'MLK' THAT HAVE COME FROM THIS VERY ALBUM, WELL, IT IS SOMETHING TO TREASURE

THE PHOTOS DO NOT DO IT JUSTICE AND THERE IS OTHER SLEEVE LABELS AND PROVENANCE NOT SHOWN THAT WILL FURTHER ATTEST TO ITS RARITY THAT WILL BE INCLUDED AND SENT TO THE BUYER.

THE DETAILS CAN BE SEEN IN THE WAX RUN OFF BUT ALSO ARE SHOWN IN AASSOCIATED PAPER 

ANY BLEMISHES OR MARKS IN THE PHOTOS ARE EITHER FROM THE CAMERA LENS OR DUST CATCHING THE LIGHT, THE RECORDS ARE PERFECT ON THE PLAYING SIDE AND THEY HAVE BEEN KEPT IN PAPER SLEEVES, IN PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE AND IN A DARK BOX FOR MANY YEARS

ANY QUESTIONS YOU MAY HAVE, PLEASE JUST ASK

AGE : 1984 (33 YEARS)
