single, also including Dub Things Happen, die-cut picture sleeve
LEFT23T) | | VIOLA WILLS If You Read My Mind (1980 UK single sided 7" metal
based high grade methyl cellulose lacquer acetate for the A-side of the
single release [featuring the 4:08 Version] with hand annotated Tape 1
custom labels in plain die cut sleeve. Very few of these are ever
produced, mostly for in-studio sonic reference, so seldom leave the
studio or are destroyed once the final master is approved, so to find
one in near 'as new' condition like this one is a real treat!)
Tracklisting: An acetate is normally a transitional stage between the master tape and the finished vinyl record but were occasionally used for a songwriter to convey a song idea to a band or person.
Originally acetates were used for home recording in the days before tape recorders, but since the advent of cassette tape & CDR are now no longer used for providing bands & their entourage copies of today's studio efforts. A machine actually cuts the grooves into the acetate like a lathe.
The acetate is used to assess whether the music has been successfully transferred to disc. It is checked by the sound engineer. There may be only one copy made of a particular recording, sometimes more are cut and sent to the studio and band members for approval.
The acetate comes before making the master, and allows the sound to be checked without great expense.
It is unusual for more than a dozen to be manufactured, so from the collector's point of view an acetate is a rare find indeed! If the recording is rejected the acetate may be the only record that survives. The rejected cut may simply be poor quality, however the artist may have opted to use a different take of the song, if so, the acetate becomes much more precious.
An incredible find & certainly one of only a handful that would have been produced. | | VIOLA WILLS Gonna Get Along Without You Now (1994 issue
