Pressure Points: Live in Concert is a live album by progressive rock band Camel, released in 1984. A remastered version with six bonus tracks was released in 2009 as a double CD Set.

Pressing Error On Original Release

[edit]

This LP also has strong interest with vinyl collectors. When it was first released on LP in 1984 the record was pressed incorrectly (with each side matched with the wrong labels) due to a production error. On the reverse of all 1st Pressings of this LP it states:- "SKL 5338 NOTE:- we regret that, due to a production error, the label on Side 2 refers to the tracks on Side 1, whilst the label on Side 1 refers to the tracks on Side 2". This error was corrected very quickly, and most of the stickers were removed by buyers on purchase. Therefore, any 'mispressed' 1st Pressings of this LP with this error are now very rare indeed.
