And I Love You So
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, they are now no longer used for providing bands & their entourage copies of today's studio efforts. A machine lathe actually cuts the grooves into the acetate directly.
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 - possibly unique - and certainly one of only a handful.
Being very delicate - they can scuff from being taken out of the original thick card studio sleeves - this copy is also in superb condition.

sided 8" diameter metal based methyl cellulose lacquer acetate for the
single A side with custom Trident Studio label & handwritten artist and
title details. The acetate shows just a few light marks, but these are
mostly cosmetic in nature & the disc is still a very playable EX- on the
7" cut. Being for studio & review use only, this is a pre-production
acetate and one of only a handful produced at most. The majority of
these are destroyed after review & they seldom surface for sale - A
great collectable!) )
