Description
LEONARD COHEN "Death Of A Ladies Man" *TEST PRESS* MINT
UNDOCUMENTED, ABANDONED UK WARNER BROTHERS PRESSING
LEONARD COHEN
Death Of A Ladies Man
RARE UK WARNER BROTHERS WHITE LABEL TEST PRESSING (K56438) OF LEONARD COHEN'S 1977 LP "Death Of A Ladies Man" (misspelt "Death Of A Lady's Man' on the sleeve)
WITH AN UNUSED AND UNDOCUMENTED (as far as I am aware) UK WARNER BROTHERS CATALOGUE NUMBER
K 56438 IS STAMPED ON THE WHITE CARD SLEEVE AND THE MATRIX NUMBERS READ
K-56438 A-1 (etched ALLEN) / K-56438 B-1 (etched ALLEN)
THE ALBUM WAS RELEASED BY WARNER BROTHERS IN THE USA (BS 3125) BUT RELEASED IN THE UK ONLY BY CBS
I BELIEVE 'DEATH OF A LADIES MAN' WAS INITIALLY SCHEDULED TO BE RELEASED BY WARNER BROTHERS IN THE UK (it got as far as this white label test pressing and was assigned a WB catalogue number) BUT WAS EVENTUALLY OFFICIALLY RELEASED BY CBS - THE SAME AS ALL OTHER UK COHEN ALBUMS
THE TIME LINE OF K NUMBERS SUPPORT THIS THEORY AS RENAISSANCE'S 'NOVELLA' LP HAS THE UK WARNER BROTHERS NUMBER K56422 (just a few numbers lower) AND WAS RELEASED IN SEPTEMBER 1977 - 'DEATH OF A LADIES MAN' WAS RELEASED BY CBS IN NOVEMBER 1977 - SO IT LOOKS LIKE THIS WARNER BROTHERS TEST PRESSING DATES FROM AROUND OCTOBER 1977
PRESSED WITH PLAIN WHITE LABELS WHICH CARRY NO WRITING
THE RECORD IS HOUSED IN A PLAIN WHITE CARD SLEEVE WITH A PLAIN WHITE INNER SLEEVE (with "Made In Great Britain" text and UK patent Numbers printed in grey)
THE OUTER SLEEVE HAS THE K56438 CATALOGUE NUMBER STAMPED WITH 'LEONARD COHEN' HAND WRITTEN IN BIRO AND THE ALBUM TITLE MISSPELT 'DEATH OF A LADY'S MAN', THIS IS WRITTEN IN PENCIL
THE RECORD IS IN UNMARKED, UNPLAYED MINT CONDITION
