Description

Original double-sided 12-inch vinyl test pressing of the Queen album ‘Hot Space,’ with both sides bearing Allied Recording Company labels annotated in red felt tip, “E1-60128 A8, SH” and “E1-6128 A9, SH.” Both sides of the test pressing contain side one of the Hot Space album. Includes its original plain white inner sleeve. In fine condition. Accompanied by a certificate of authenticity from Tracks.

The consignor notes that the test pressing originates from the property of Trudi Humphry, a lifelong Queen fan who met the band on numerous occasions, starred in multiple music videos, and was heavily involved with The Official Fan Club in London. This led to her having access to the group and attending many concerts and tours with backstage passes. Trudi also wrote a discographical research biography with Andy Skingle that was printed in the booklet and credited to them in the box set of albums called Queen The Works.
