I came across this Quicksand promo 12" recently on discogs. I can't remember why I was looking at this, as I have owned one for probably 30 years or so. But one of the copies for sale caught my eye as it said that it came with a press sheet. Mine didn't have one, so I figured I'd buy this one as it was pretty cheap.
This is a 4 song 12" which served as a promo for 'Slip' back in 1993. This was back in the days when the only way to circulate music was to send physical copies around, although I'm not sure where they would have been sent... radio stations? Record shops? Given it was 1993, and CDs were in full swing, I'm slightly confused as to why they pressed vinyl promos. But anyway, when this arrived it did indeed have the press sheet included.
I took a photo of the sheet so you can click on it and read it:
Witht he gift of hindsight, this seems pretty sloppy to me. Some of it is factually incorrect, but generally it's just interesting to read this for the first time all these years later.
