Interview with Gary Marx on the Damage Done test pressings
Together with the acetate and according to the invoice, a number of two
test pressings of the Damage Done single 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."
