ELTON JOHN Songs From The West Coast (Very Rare pair of
single-sided 12" metal based ultra high-grade methyl
cellulose lacquer acetates for the 2016 UK double LP [first
released on compact disc in 2001], featuring Side B
& Side Donly [six tracks in total], with custom typed
studio labels featuring the Abbey Road Studios logo, artist
name, album title, playback & side info along with a printed
'15. Jul 2016' date. Both discs are housed in their respective
Abbey Road die-cut company sleeves & appear in Excellent
condition with very little cosmetic wear commonly associated
with the format. Acetates from this era are created in very
small numbers indeed, certainly no more than a handful, for
studio sonic reference & are normally destroyed afterwards,
so seldom surface for sale. Ideal for the collector)
TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
B1. American Triangle 4:51
B2. Original Sin 4:51
B3. Birds 3:54
D1. Love Her Like Me 4:00
D2. Mansfield 4:58
D3. This Train Don't Stop There Anymore 4:40
An acetate is a transitional stage between the master tape and the finished vinyl record.
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 select handful in existence.
