The Ramones – 2 ‘Leave Home’ Test Pressings / Remastered 2017 & Sundragon Sessions 2018 / From Producer Ed Stasium’s Collection
Two different audiophile LP test pressings of the Ramones’ Leave Home album, from the archive of legendary Ramones producer/engineer/associate Ed Stasium. These include Stasium’s 2017 Leave Home remaster, and the Leave Home Sundragon Sessions (released for 2018’s Record Store Day.)
Both of these were used by Ed Stasium during the production process, and the cover of each disc has been signed by Stasium. Included are Stasium’s signed letters of authenticity for each disc.
Stasium’s letters (this is the one for the remaster) read:
This letter is to authenticate a test pressing of the Ramones album ‘Leave Home’ [Remaster 2017] from my personal collection. During my long associate with the Ramones, I worked on nine of their original albums, as engineer, mixer, producer, additional guitarist and backing vocalist. I have also engineered, remixed, and produced numerous demos, reissues and live albums for the band. This test pressing was used during the album’s production, and I have signed the sleeve. Gabba Gabba Hey! [signed] Ed Stasium.
These test pressings are in beautiful Mint condition, and of course, were the very first discs off the presses, insuring their exceptional fidelity.
Stasium was the engineer for the original Leave Home album and oversaw the 2017/18 issues. A great Ramones collectible, directly from the source.
