TEST PRESSINGS
Test pressings, often known as white label pressings, are copies produced from the masters by the pressing plants in tiny quantities of between ten and thirty copies. These test discs are then sent to the artists and record companies for approval before the main manufacturing is commenced.
These discs are very rare and much sought after by collectors as these are the working copies intended for the artists and label executives to check that the vinyl mastering process is true to the master tapes. The discs were not created for retail sale as part of a manufacturing run. They are genuine test pressings used at work in the industry by the artists and record labels.
THE CLASH - WHITE RIOTS IN NEW YORK
The classic line up of the Clash lasted for five years from 1977 to 1982 and featured lead vocalist and rhythm guitarist Joe Strummer, lead guitarist and vocalist Mick Jones, bassist Paul Simonon and drummer Nicky 'Topper' Headon. Give 'Em Enough Rope, the second studio album, was released on 10 November 1978. The album was a huge success and by 1979 the Clash had begun to make serious inroads into the US market.
White Riots In New York is the legendary Clash broadcast from The Palladium NYC on 21st September 1979. This powerful recording captures The Clash at the peak of their form performing material from Give 'Em Enough Rope and The Clash and their soon to be released third album London Calling.
