I HAVE JUST BOUGHT A NICE COLLECTION OF UNIQUE PROMOS / TEST PRESSING AND ACETATE. THIS COLLECTION CAME FROM A PERSON WHO USED TO WORK IN A MAJOR RADIO STATION FROM THE LATE 1960'S TO THE EARLY 1990'S. THERE ARE UNIQUE TEST PRESSING ACETATE ETC.. OF ROCK / PUNK / SOUL / PROG ETC... SO PLEASE KEEP WATCHING MY AUCTIONS OVER THE NEXT FEW MONTHS FOR THIS ONCE IN A LIFETIME CHANCE TO GET THESE UNIQUE TEST PRESSINGS AND ACETATES. This is a RARE AND UNIQUE ORIGINAL UK TEST PRESSING / MISPRESSING SINGLE BY THE SMITHS (MORRISSEY) from 1985 entitled "HOW SOON IS NOW?", ORIGINAL UK TEST PRESSING / MISPRESSING COPY IN AMAZING CONDITION AND A MUST !!! This is the rare TEST PRESSING MISPRESSING which has OSCILLATE WILDLY on the B. side instead of the commercially released "WELL I WONDER". All copies I have seen had Scott Pearing writing on the B. side saying FAULTY where as the truth is there is nothing faulty with it, it plays prefect, just the wrong SMITHS song !!!
The single came out on ROUGH TRADE RECORDS catalogue number RT 176. The matrix numbers are: SIDE 1: RT-176-A and LYN-16492-1C Z and "THE TATTY TRUTH", SIDE 2: RT-176-B and LYN-15493-1C-Z
The tracks are: HOW SOON IS NOW ? / OSCILLATE WILDLY. The condition of the VINYL is EX++/EX+++ (PLAYED ONCE minor sleeve scuffs only, HAND WRITTEN LABELS as can be seen in the photos), ORIGINAL PICTURE SLEEVE is in EX+ / EX++ condition (minor mark on back)
DON'T LET THIS RARE AND UNIQUE THE SMITHS / MORRISSEY ORIGINAL PRESS FIRST SINGLE + ORIGINAL PRESS PACK get away as you will NEVER see another one especially in this near mint condition.
