Description
1976 - THE BRECKER BROTHERS BAND - BACK TO BACK - - THIS IS THE ORIGINAL U.S.A. TEST PRESSING / DEMONSTRATION WHITE LABEL PROMO AS PRINTED ON THE LABELS - COMES IN A GENERIC WHITE CARDBOARD JACKET - ARISTA RECORDS - AL 4061 - CHECK OUT THE PHOTOS - OK LARRY?
TEST PRESSINGS ARE THE FIRST RECORDS PRESSED FROM THE PLATES TO CHECK THE QUALITY AND CONTENT OF THE ALBUM. SO TEST PRESSINGS ARE ALWAYS THE BEST SOUND QUALITY RECORDINGS THAT YOU CAN EVER FIND OF THAT ALBUM. THEY'RE MADE IN LIMITED QUANTITY, SOMETIMES NO MORE THAN 3 OR 5. IN SOME CASES THE MUSICAL CONTENT AND / OR MIXES ARE DIFFERENT ON TEST PRESSINGS THAN ON THE VERSION THAT'S FINALLY RELEASED. I HAVEN'T COMPARED THIS TEST PRESSING TO THE STOCK COPY, SO I DON'T KNOW IF ANY OF THE SONG MIXES OR SONGS ARE DIFFERENT.
SIDE ONE CONTAINS: KEEP IT STEADY -IF YOU WANNA BOOGIE....FORGET IT - LOVELY LADY - NIGHT FLIGHT.
SIDE TWO CONTAINS: SLICK STUFF - DIG A LITTLE DEEPER - GREASE PIECE - WHAT CAN A MIRACLE DO - I LOVE WASTIN' TIME WITH YOU.
THE CARDBOARD GENERIC WHITE JACKET HAS WHAT WAS PROBABLY A PIECE OF A SMALL PRICE STICKER ON IT. SOME INDENTATIONS. NO SEAM SPLITS. WHO CARES? IT'S JUST A GENERIC WHITE JACKET WITH NOTHING PRINTED OR WRITTEN ON IT.
THE HEAVY VINYL RECORD LOOKS AND SOUNDS GREAT. I MOVED BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD AROUND UNDER A BRIGHT LIGHT AND COULDN'T FIND ANY SCRATCHES AT ALL, SOME ULTRA LIGHT SCUFFS CAN BE FOUND IF YOU HOLD IT AT THE RIGHT ANGLE, BUT THEY DON'T STAND OUT AND THERE'S ABSOLUTELY NOTHING EVEN CLOSE TO A SCRATCH ON EITHER SIDE. A NICE LOOKING RECORD. IN ANY CASE IT LOOKS LIKE IT HASN'T BEEN PLAYED VERY MUCH AND IF SO VERY CAREFULLY. I PLAYED BOTH SIDES OF THE RECORD ON MY DENON DP-1200 TURNTABLE WITH A DENON MOVING COIL CARTRIDGE HOOKED UP TO A HEAD AMP . AND IT SOUNDED GREAT. A BETTER THAN NORMAL SOUNDING RECORD AND I'M SURE IT WOULD BE BETTER THAN ANY STOCK COPY OF THIS LP. THE LABELS HAVE TWO SONGS CIRCLED IN RED INK ON SIDE TOW AND ONE SONG ON SIDE ONE. ALSO SOME INITIALS SO IT MUST HAVE BEEN LISTENED TO BY SOMEBODY. MAYBE THE PRODUCER OR MAYBE EVEN ONE OF THE BRECKER BROTHERS? THE RECORD COMES WITH A HIGH QUALITY TYPE OF COLLECTOR'S INNER SLEEVE, AND A PLASTIC OUTER SLEEVE THAT FITS OVER THE JACKET IS ALSO NOW INCLUDED.
