Release Info:
Pearls! Volume One is an LP released in the spring of 2025, a stunning compilation of rarely performed songs, some of which have only been performed once.
Pressed in three different colour combinations, each combination has a different number of copies pressed.
All copies are numbered, with each colour combination having its own consecutive numbering: Red/Black is pressed in only 25 copies, Orange/Blue in 88 copies and Pink/Green in 92 copies.
There are also 25 TEST PRESSING copies in Violet Marble.
The first 10 copies of each colour combination, including the TEST PRESSING, are enclosed in 10 beautiful and extremely rare numbered wooden boxes, plus a clear 10" bonus record, not sold separately, with 5 different songs from those recorded on the other LPs.
There is also a black 12" not for sale, owned only by bootleggers, which contains the 5 bonus songs present on the 10" plus 2 more songs, for a total of 7.
These two bonus pressings, the clear 10" and the black 12", are not normal pressed vinyl like all the others; they are engraved with a special machine specifically designed for this type of work, but once finished, it is a normal vinyl like all the others; perhaps more similar to acetates.
A couple of TEST PRESSINGS were also pressed for these clear 10" and black 12" bonus LPs.
In early autumn a second pressing, the "Fan Club Edition", was released with a gatefold cover in 10 numbered copies containing 3 LPs: a Green/Orange TEST PRESSING, a Clear vinyl, and a White vinyl.
An additional 33 copies were pressed on clear vinyl, 33 copies on white vinyl, and 17 green/orange test pressings, packaged with the first 17 white vinyl records in their standard sleeves.
The remaining 16 white vinyl copies and 33 clear vinyl copies were sold separately.
