In the late 70s i was living that grand old hippy life of strange cigarettes, crash pads with cushions for floors and velvet curtains for walls … it was quite magical!
The Hari Krishna temple used to visit – and so, believe it or not did, Edgar Broughton with members of his Big Band … oh, how we danced and laughed heheheh!
Anyway, after one visit by the templers and the broughton-ers i found a copy of Blonde on Blonde by Bob Dylan! It had no info on the disc itself and the label was plain white with only two big black capital letter words on it – TEST PRESSING.
I had found the original test pressing of Bob Dylan’s Blonde on Blonde! it was more important than the Holy Grail, so. … i acquired it.
I kept it for years until i got divorced … incredibly the record was amongst the things i forgot to take away with me in that masculine moment of leaving home forever.
I went back for it a few months later and my dear ex-wife had helped the children to turn the discs into two matching ashtrays!
