Revision as of 14:18, 19 June 2018
Together with the Damage Done Acetate and according to the invoice,
a number of 2 x 14 test pressings were handed to customer Gary Marx.
Years later, he would sell them off as mentioned in the interview here:
"... I decided to wash that guy right out of my back-combed hair and get rid of
everything that reminded me of the band... I flogged white labels, recordings
with studio outtakes ... I just wanted to start over and not get wrapped up
in my own mythology."
Production Notes
- Mastering: Portland Recording Studios Ltd
- Catalogue/Matrix#: MR 7

Remarks
- The production lot consisted of:
- 2 x 14 / 7" 45 Stereo Masters and 1 x 7" d/s 45 Stereo Acetate.
- The test pressings came with plain light pink labels.
- Test pressings with plain white labels have also surfaced, but it is not clear,
- whether these are the 2nd slot of the 2 x 14 or what else is their origin.
