….one of THE most desirable Smiths rarities, this is the test pressing for aborted second single Reel Around The Fountain (well they had just written This Charming Man for a John Peel session so I guess we can forgive them)….full info herePINK FLOYD See Emily Play: This ain’t just a record, it’s a piece of history no? An extremely rare & genuine 1967 US wide centred promotional vinyl 7″ for the single, limited to just 250 copies for review before the stock copies were released to the public, more info hereMADONNA Borderline: Rare 1986 UK original UNCUT picture disc of the familiar young 1980’s Madonna shape! Also includes Physical Attraction. This superb rarity has not been cut to the finished shape but remains as a 12″ disc with clear vinyl surrounding the central image. Uncut picture discs are generally used as ‘test pressings’ – a few are always made to check the image alignment and print quality before the final run is cut to the desired shape, needless to say these rarely appear for sale, more info here
