7" or 45 rpm record by MCA Records. The artist is Lyle Lovett and the song is Give Back My Heart. I am inquiring about it to find out how rare or if it even is rare. Here is a list of descriptions and things I think might be unique or rare.
Red transparent (see through) vinyl record with white label and black lettering. It clearly reads Promotional Copy Not For Sale on the label. The date and company on the label is 1987 MCA RECORDS, INC. Also stamped into the vinyl is the word Masterfonic. The actual stamp used to stamp the vinyl looks like it was well worn because the first 4 to 6 letters of the stamp were very faint and shallow. I don't believe this was normal wear because both sides of the record that were stamped are identical. Also Engraved into the vinyl are the following letters and numbers MC-23431-MI-5. I am not sure if the last number engraved is actually a 5 or if it is actually the letter S.
I am really trying to find out some info like rarity, production quantities and some type of value. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for looking.

Promotional copies were usually given to local radio stations for on air distribution.
Perhaps a juke box issue?
