Blood On The Tracks Test Pressing
All recorded in NYC July 16-19, 1974

Collected by PL from a disk owned by PH.

This is a complete original "test pressing". Various copies of this have been used to make bootlegs and fan compilations, most of which subtract the 5 released tracks and add other released tracks (everybodys a producer).

I still have doubts about this really being a "pressing" as opposed to a one-off acetate, I know of only 2 other copies (both given to session players). Such a small numbetr would hardly justify making a "pressing". PH (an old collector) tells me it is indeed a "pressing" and that he sometimes sees other copies on eBay, but they could be bogus and I am unconvinced.

I believe this runs at the correct speed. Oddly, all tracks are in the key of E.
