Marillion - He Knows You Know / 7" vinyl TEST PRESSING
b/w Charting the SingleEMI 5362
Stamped 24 Dec 1982
Please note these are single-sided pressings, with a song on one side of the disc and a blank reverse side. The entire single contents are present on the two records included here.
Beyond rare, this would have been pressed in a set of about 4-5 discs to check the press quality before production. I have listened to it only to verify the track and while it sounded great, I offer no opinion as to whether it is of an improved sonic quality when compared to a standard pressing.
It appears to have been played little. The B side has a few minor marks and one slightly more obvious one circa 6mm long near the edge (this is visible in the images). The only one that is faintly audible is the one near the edge, but it's not serious at all. I would consider the B side record to be VG+. The A side is in excellent condition and I would consider this record to be Near Mint (or as Near Mint as a 40 year old record in an unsealed paper sleeve can be). Supplied with the original paper sleeve as shown.Please see the images as they are of the actual record for sale.
I am helping clear a significant collection of pressings from this era, please keep watching.

** Overseas buyers please note that Import duties, taxes & charges are not included in the item price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer’s responsibility, so please check with your country’s customs office before buying, to determine what additional costs may/may not be included.
Please don’t request to undervalue the item on the Customs form. This is not possible because the declared value is the maximum claim amount possible in any insurance claim, and your record will not be shipped without proper insurance.
* EU buyers please note that from January 1/2021, Britain’s exit from the EU has made international shipping considerably more challenging, made even more so by the lack of clarity in some areas. Delays are occurring and buyers both in the EU and Britain are being surprised by new import duties and fees. Please do your homework before bidding/buying to assess whether you should expect these as per the point below.
