            @Jett129 just responding to this, sorry. Yes the test pressing is a much heavier weight record. I’d say 200gram maybe even a bit heavier. It sounds incredible btw. I think even better than the production copy. Has a ton of dynamics and some very ethereal highs with the vocals, guitars and cymbals.

            Listening to it again now 🎶😁😁😁🎶

            In the easy chair with my boots on, melted whiskey in my hand. Could'na been asleep for more than three hours...time to go to work again...

              @Mizmazzle It was really kind of random,but I was in someone's office at Columbia Records and she said I have your test pressing,do you want it? I never heard anyone saying that they had listened to the Test Pressing and gave it the green light. So I don't know why she had it,if she had listened to it,don't know if a "Test Pressing" is just some sort of formality and it never really gets listened to,but I'm glad it now has a good home and is,definitely,being listened to.

                  @Jett129 i know, at least with records pressed in the last 25 years, there are typically 5 identical (theoretically) test pressings made and sent out to the artist/artists rep to sign off on before the actual run of the record is pressed.

                  Whenever I've had them given to me it's usually just listening to make sure nothing went haywire during the mastering/cutting process.

                  I can say that i have owned multiple official releases where somebody did not bother to listen to the test press thoroughly.....

                          I have this and it is a damn fine album

                          Such an elusive character from what I know of him

                            @Brian I agree, he’s one of the best to ever do it. Hoping to read his biography at some point.

                                            My old band’s last and final album. Officially released on February 27th. I couldn’t be happier with it.
