NOTES:
This is a listing for the rejected test-pressing of the three track vinyl edition of CHAMUNDA by Elizabeth Rossa, Johnny Rossa and Meredith Meyer produced by Judah Bauer, available on CD and vinyl (with full album download).

“The vinyl test pressings were delivered to us at the end of 2017 with unacceptable sound quality. After a number of discussions, we finally had to send the tests to our mastering engineer this winter of 2018 to get an expert opinion. He agreed that the sound quality was unacceptable. Our intention is for a high sound quality deluxe limited edition.” – Laboratory of the Self mailout
