A test pressing of More - Clicky - Think it's real?

A triple CD box set of the 3 LPs - Clicky - Is it just gonna be the 3 CDs put in a box, or is it official?

A test pressing of Floodland - Clicky - Same with the More pressing.

And finally, a sampler of Vision Thing - Clicky - Looks very appealing.


Gentlemen, Ladies, I implore of thee, knowledge on whether any of these are official or not. And you never know, soon I might try to get a couple, or at least the VT sampler. Unless you beat me to it. 8)

All are real & official, wether the black label promo's should be called test pressing or not is something to debate (but I'd call them promo's nevertheless) ...

The More & Floodland promo's are overpriced you should be able to find them for £4 or slightly more in a shop, the 3 CD box set are the standard European CD releases put in a box nothing special ...

The Vison Thing sampler is a very nice item imho, one sided pressing etc... you should get it Dark. ;D


Btw. the real Floodland Test Pressing has pink labels :innocent:

I have all these items (except the 3 CD bx set). I always thought the no writing on the labels were promos. I have VT, Dr. Jeep, and More (I think!).

You have no idea how much I want that sampler. But there's a problem. It's from Australia, and p+p costs AU$15.

Mind you, if I win on it, AU$25 is roughly £10, so...

The triple box is basically :

FALAA (1992 Remaster)
Floodland
Vision Thing

All german prints in a Australian WEA cardboard sleeve.
I picked mine up off Amazon for about 15 quid.

@Dark

The most wanted (and nicest imo) of the black label promo's is the Lucretia 12" which came with a snakeskin pattern sleeve (SAM 443) :D ...

The most Wanted black label promos, might not be known to the masses of of heartland subscribes. I have with my own eyes, seen a black label copy of the Docks. 17.11.90 live album. From the people I have spoked to from WEA/East West. This album was due to be released, But Andy refused, but for what reason I don´t still know, under current investigaction.
Happy New Year, to Christian, Thomas, Christer, Marielle and The rest Of The Infamous Rebel foundation ofl The Sisterhood Foundation. :eek: :D :D :D :D :D
