Short Lives 7" (test pressing)

About this item

Description from Jungle Records:

A Johnny Thunders test-pressing of a 1986 single that never got released! A cover was designed by our in-house artist and designer Blodgett Waxwing (aka Alex McLaren) with 98 faces of late celebrities who had the ‘Short Lives’ that Johnny was singing about.

50 x 7” test-pressings were made. Eventually, Johnny requested that he do his own remix of ‘Short Lives’, and record the ‘Que Sera Sera’ single - and this project got shelved.

A numbered (1-53 actually!) limited edition, now packaged with the original artwork in a wraparound printed 250gsm art-card in a PVC sleeve. An instant collector’s item!
