More info hereKATE BUSH Hammer Horror: Very Rare One-Sided Test Pressing for the 1978 Australian 7″ single, with ‘EMI-11837A-2’ matrix detail etched in the side one run-off. The labels are plain white with printed catalogue & side detail & annotatedartist/song titles, complete with a plain white die-cut sleeve. Just a select handful of these would have been made to test the sonics & the vinyl appears barely played at all. Impossible to find!

Superb Smiths collectable obtained from a former industry employee that includes the following hand-written text above the title, “Moz sez it’s a winner, except….”, the exception being the inclusion of extra guitarist Craig Gannon’s name being on the sleeve! A little bit of Smiths history if ever-there-was! This item has been folded but has stood the test of time remarkably well with very little signs of wear – another Smiths one-off looking for a frame and a wall at the earliest opportunity!
