Electric Light Orchestra – ACETATE – Balance of Power 2 Disc Set + Artwork

Aparece este curioso ACETATO del álbum de ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA «BALANCE OF POWER» en eBay, en el que nos llaman poderosamente la atención dos datos que destacamos a continuación:

El primero: la fecha en la que supuestamente están grabados o estampados 5-08-85, casi un año anterior al lanzamiento del álbum finalmente editado, permitiendo sugerir la posibilidad de que en esta grabación pudiese existir alguna diferencia sonora con respecto a lo editado un año más tarde, aunque no se incluye este dato en la descripción del producto que podría utilizarse para elevar considerablemente su valor.

El segundo: no contiene el tema quinto de la cara A «IT IS ALRIGHT», que es sustituido por «DESTINATION UNKNOWN», lo que nos hace pensar si éste era el orden original de temas elegido por JEFF LYNNE desde un principio y que fue sustituido en el último momento antes de su lanzamiento al mercado discográfico.

Otra curiosidad es que son dos discos impresos a una sola cara, con el reverso completamente liso.

Se incluyen en el paquete adjuntas tres pruebas de posibles portadas para este disco.

El precio de este artículo es de 2.775 euros aproximadamente, pudiéndose realizar ofertas.

En la descripción se incluye:

ELOSPAIN:

This curious ACETATE from the ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA album "BALANCE OF POWER" appears on eBay, in which two pieces of information that we highlight below strongly call our attention:
The first: the date on which they are supposedly recorded or stamped 08-5-85, almost a year before the release of the finally released album, allowing us to suggest the possibility that in this recording there could be some sound difference with respect to what was released a year later, although this information is not included in the description of the product that could be used to considerably increase its value.
The second: it does not contain the fifth track of side A "IT IS ALRIGHT", which is replaced by "DESTINATION UNKNOWN", which makes us wonder if this was the original order of tracks chosen by JEFF LYNNE from the beginning and that it was replaced at the last moment before its release on the record market.
Another curiosity is that they are two discs printed on one side, with a completely smooth back.

Three proofs of possible covers for this disc are included in the attached package.
The price of this item is approximately 2,775 euros, and offers can be made.
