What Test Presses do you own?


Recommended Posts

I've developed an ill-advised test press focus recently that will destroy me.  Currently have:

 

- The Felix Culpa - Sever Your Roots

- The Felix Culpa/Foreign Tongues - split

- The Jayhawks - Tomorrow the Green Grass

- Faust - Faust IV (repress)

- Rock Plaza Central - In the Time of Our Most Needing . . .

- YMAEWK - Some Things Don't Wash Out

That Jayhawks, nice.

I just received a test for Restorations' Call And Response 7", and Mike Huguenor's Bardamu. So excited on these.

Wow. I didn't know it was possible to be this jealous of a test pressing. In all honesty though I'd kill for any copy of this album.

 

On a side note I had a moment of stupidity and went for the E!E! (IWALE) - In Which the Choices We Make... test press that BWM put up on ebay last week and won it. I think it was because the new album preorder dropped the day before, and I was still super excited. I need to be better with my money.

 

ive been really lucky with this one! got it from minty along with the record release version. theres a repress in the works though!

 

I got an /6 Clear test press of Matsuri-Endship for $20 from the label owner himself very cool since I've been unable to find a copy at all for sale

 

that was you on discogs! if you ever plan on reselling, you know where to find me.

I just recently acquired 5 Trouble in Mind test pressings:

 

Doug Tuttle S/T

Ultimate Painting S/T

Estrogen Highs- Hear Me on the Number Station

The Paperhead- Africa Avenue 

Negative Scanners- Ambitious People 7"

 

and a few moths ago I purchased the Twin Peaks Wild Onion Test Press edition out of 100

 

I also have a Wooden Wand Test Pressing from his box set. Nothing too crazy.

This thread is crazy! How do you guys get all of these tests?

About 50% eBay - this is the heavy $$$ way. But not always. Depands on luck and what you looking for.

About 30% direct from label - there are a lot of labels with cash needs. Reasonable prices here if you buy more, often with some regular editions.

About 10% from bands - talk to them during shows. Some can help with rare stuff.

About 10% other - someone just decided he's tired of vinyl. I'm sure. :)
