Damian Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Hi everyone, Just a quick question so I don't get burnt with a boot (again..) .. has the Precisions' If This Is Love been booted with the Drew label design? I've spotted a copy but would rather ask before pulling the trigger.. I've looked around here but could not come to a conclusion. If it has and there's some matrix # or such to tell the boot apart I'd appreciate the info! TIA and rgds., D. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Solution The Yank Posted April 19, 2015 Solution Share Posted April 19, 2015 (edited) I don't know why anyone would boot this- plenty of copies around. Original copies are styrene and have ZTSC126413-1A on the "If This..." side and ZTSC126414-1A on the "You'll Soon Be Gone"side. Matrix info is stamped and not scratched in.

NEV Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 (edited) I'm not certain but I seem to recall a box set or something along the lines ,with a reissue of this and a few of their other known songs on the drew label a few yrs back ? It was a ep https://www.discogs.com/Precisions-If-This-Is-The-Love-Id-Rather-Be-Lonely-Such-Misery-Sugar-Aint-Sweet-Baby-Youre-Mine/release/6293036 Edited April 20, 2015 by NEV Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chris L Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Couple of "re-issues" not sure how legitimate they are. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Also a 4 track EP and a 4 track promo EP Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Damian Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Thank you very much everyone. I did see one on Ebay but it's a reissue: https://www.ebay.com/itm/The-Precisions-If-This-Is-Love-Such-Misery-Northern-Soul-Vinyl-45-Listen-/151654937016?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_3&hash=item234f56b1b8 I was aware of a couple reissues on labels like 'Detroit' (I think?) but had not seen them with the Drew label design. The EP looks interesting! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mal C Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Clearly a reissue, originals are all styrene as in sure the chap above mentioned... The ep, well it's exciting until you realise the released tracks are the better tracks, that promo that got pulled, isn't very good really against the other released 45,s..: Just my opinion of course..

Chris L Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 It's not that expensive to find as an original, here's one on Ebay at £9.00 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/261856307578?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1558.l2649 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Damian Posted April 20, 2015 Author Share Posted April 20, 2015 Thanks everyone for chiming in, this is all really useful to me as I'm barely getting started here (as I'm sure you've noticed). Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
The Yank Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 And -1c on the end. There's no "1 C" on my copy- did notice a very faint scratched in "R' though. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

macca Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Which record company distributed Drew nationally? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
The Yank Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Didn't Laurie distribute Drew ? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
The Yank Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 The last letter of the matrix info - A, B, C ....J has something to do with the lacquer used for the side. There's a whole topic about this in the Look At Your Box section entitled "ZTSC on Ric Tic, Golden World" which I believe is on page 10. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
macca Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 Thanks, just looked at the other label design and it's on it! Doh! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
