Eight Songs For Greg Sage And The Wipers T/K 917010 TRIB 2 test pressing
Test pressing on black vinyl and white Rainbo Records labels. Nothing was written on the labels. White inner sleeves. On the retail box, the records are marked from side A to side H. The company labels on this test pressing only has A and B marks, however you can see which side it is by looking at the matrix code. One set which was sold by Thor Lindsay, owner of T/K Records, was autographed by Lindsay on the labels, and put in a spare retail box with picture sleeves. Lindsay sold several sets around 2000. Many Nirvana-record only test pressings have surfaced, so many sets have been split up. One such "stand-alone" copy has funny writings by Poison Idea members and a Kurdt-like signature, but it is probably not written by Cobain. Thor Lindsay once said there were ten sets of test pressings made, but later contradicted himself and said there were 20. What the real number is, is uncertain. Three complete sets and four Nirvana stand-alone copies have been found.  Tracklist  A: Napalm Beach - Potential Suicide  B: M-99 - Astro Cloud  C: Nirvana - Return Of The Rat  D: Poison Idea - Up Front  E: Dharma Bums - On The Run  F: Crackerbash - I Don't Know What I Am / Mystery  G: Hole - Over The Edge  H: Whirlees - Land Of The Lost  Matrix & IFPI  Side A: TK-917010-A  K disc  JG R-14771  Side B: TK-917010-B  K disc  JG R-14772  Side C: TK-917010-A C  K disc  JG R-14773  Side D: TK-917010-B D  K disc  JG R-14774  Side E: TK-917010-E  K disc  JG R-14775  Side F: TK-917010-F  K disc  JG R-14776  Side G: TK-917010-G  K disc  JG R-14777  Side H: TK-917010-H  K disc  JG R-14778	Format Type Label Catalog Made in Year Quantity 4x7" (black) Test pressing Tim/Kerr Records T/K 917010 TRIB2   1992 10 or 20 sets
