Discovered I had a One Step pressing....from 1978!

STC records apparently discovered one step pressings in 1978. The cover (see attached images) touts “introducing the Direct Pressed Disc. One step closer than direct cut.”
Anyone know of other one step pressings previous to the current MoFi’s?

I have that record, got it from one of the audio reps when I sold audio.  It sounds excellent for the year but I was not then and now a fan of the LP.

I listened to it yesterday for the first time.  Really nice sound but was not one of l my favorites.

The direct-to-disc LP still beats all LP's pressed using a recorder of any kind. Skipping the recording "step" is the biggest of them all.
