Even Better Than The Real Thing - 6 Test Pressings

U2 Even Better Than The Real Thing (Rare set of six UK black vinyl 7" test pressings for the 1992 single release; these records were cut to check the sound quality of the pressing, long before the commercial run was undertaken. Each record has adifferent matrix number, starting with A1/B1 and rising numerically to A6/B6. The label area of each disc has a small hand-annotated sticker detailing which matrix number the pressing was from and each plainwhite sleeve has been affixed with the studio engineer's hand-written library tag - a stunning archive set and quite simply unrepeatable!
