Description
I actually didn't even know I had these until just now. It's the original test pressings from the first pressing of "the Glow pt. 2" by the Microphones. I think it was originally pressed at United Record Pressing. Those look like their old test pressing labels. They are dated 8/2/01. The record came out about a month later. 2xLP, sides A/B and sides C/D. They come inside one of the original jackets from that first pressing, not the later tip-on heavy gatefold ones.
This was released in 2001 by K Records as KLP133. Later it was reissued under different catalog numbers and record labels, but this is the very first one.
Usually they make about 5 test pressings. This would be one of those 5 sets. Very rare, obviously. If you collect test pressings you might know more about why these would be interesting or valuable.
I bet it's been played not more than 2 times ever, and then it's been sitting in my archives for 20 years.
thank you,
