What we have here is an unbelievably rare UK radio station only promo EP for the debut song What took you so long? by ex Spice Girl Emma Bunton from 2001 on Virgin label with the numbers VSCDT1796 / VSC1796 / VSCDJ1796
There are a lot of regular promo CD's for this release that were widely available but this is something different and what makes this special is that it is a pre-release CDr sent exclusively to radio stations months before actual release and there were very few in existence in 2001 and even less now making it a true unicorn release for Emma Bunton, Spice Girls fans and collectors alike.
The item states "For Internal Use Only" , "Radio Restricted" with an embargo date of 26/02/2001. The single was released on 02/04/2001 making this designed for station play out systems
If you heard the song on the radio in 2001 then this is the release that it came from
I have only ever seen one of these for sale and priced at almost £400 without postage from a seller in the USA
The CD is in Good/ VG condition, the inlay is excellent and the jewel case is in very good condition. See photos for the exact item listed
