I am sorting through yet another box of my test pressing collection, white label pre-production vinyl's so here is one more for you.
Why White Label?
White Label vinyl (both marked and unmarked) are fun, interesting music. Sometimes we have found mixes/remixes that never made commerical release, some didn't even get past the production stages and were never released as a commercial product.
It's also about the hunt for that great song, the one you have never heard before! White label product such as this one have the added excitment of the "hunt", finding out just who the artist/song are based on the matrix run out codes or sometimes just listening to the music and then going on an incredible audio hunt.
Our previous sound engineer used to love this White Label product, he would play the vinyl and then (without looking at the matrix codes) identify the artist song and the mix/remix etc - all part of building his musical knowledge.
Anyway, here are the details of this test pressing
This is a bootleg mash-up release
Kool EP

Generic white record label cover is in very good condition, no seam splits, no writing, no tears. White record label on each side is completely blank/unmarked
New inner plastic sleeve
Vinyl is in very good condition, visually inspected under a bright white halogen light source and I can only see a couple of very light scratches on the each side, but just looking at a piece of vinyl really isn't good enough. I then played both sides of this release ENTIRELY, absolutely no significant issues with surface noise or clicks/pops on either side. A really nice play!
New outer plastic protective sleeve
