Anything else like it out there?

There is another 7" white label test pressing with 'Confusion' on one side (7FAC93) and 'Love In Itself' (by DM) on the other (7BONG4).

Some bizarre combinations, with the New Order tracks being worlds better then the DM Ones on those.

It's not a test pressing but I have a jukebox 7" with True Faith on one side and The Smiths' Girlfriend in a Coma on the other.

Ohh, thats a rather snazzy combination. I find these to be quite hilarious in their track selections.

It's cool having Rough Trade on one side, Factory (subsidiary) on the other...
