What Is a Test Pressing? (Yep Roc Records)
Bid on rare + autographed test pressings here: https://www.ebay.com/usr/yeprocrecords
It’s Yep Roc’s 25th anniversary this year, and to celebrate we’re auctioning off a ton of test pressings (many autographed!) from our archives with all proceeds benefiting Planned Parenthood. Test pressings are extremely rare first pressings of a vinyl record that are used to approve the vinyl pressing, before an LP is mass produced. Generally, only four copies are made-- one for the artist, one for the producer, one for the label, and one extra (sometimes a few extra are made, but overall the quantity is always very small). Simply put, these are collector’s items, and anyone in ownership of one is part of a very small and exclusive group.
