Guest bradcam Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 Hi Just checking through some stuff I'm selling and flicked through the recent Manship guide for this single. I thought I just had a regular pressing until I saw a £106 figure next to it. Why is this rare, is it a different mix? TIA Brad Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Have a look at my thread [well, one reply anyway] from week or so ago. I had WXL as well. Maybe WXB harder to find or just rubbish info.

Supercorsa Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 I was just reading this and thought I'd check mine out. The only difference I can see is the layout & print on the label? Is there any reason for this?? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
45cellar Posted August 9, 2009 Share Posted August 9, 2009 (edited) I was just reading this and thought I'd check mine out. The only difference I can see is the layout & print on the label? Is there any reason for this?? Yours may have a "Nashville Matrix" at a Guess, looking at the Label Layout. Either way, different pressing plant.

Modernsoulsucks Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Have we not gone off at a tangent here. The question is not why do these two labels differ. They're both WXL-114312. There is another release with WXB-118209. See here https://cgi.ebay.com/BRENDA-HOLLOWAY-WHEN-IM-GONE-45-TAMLA-T-54111_W0QQitemZ350223027967QQcmdZViewItemQQptZMusic_on_Vinyl?hash=item518aeb4eff&_trksid=p3286.m20.l1116 What's the difference between these two serial #'s and Brad wonders why WXL seems to be rated more when it appears very common.

45cellar Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 (edited) I'm certain that at least two different mix between matrix WXL or WXB. Edited August 10, 2009 by 45cellar Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Modernsoulsucks Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 This is the Rarer Detroit Mix (DM WXL)............. Dave f.......... Can you explain that Dave? A quick glance at Ebay shows DM WXL to be the commoner of the two. Do you know how the mix differs. Both are stated as 2.05 in length. ROD Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest franky m Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Has anyone got sound clips of both releases ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Kris Holmes Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 Yes, two subtley different mixes, Brenda Holloway was a West Coast artist, I forget which way it happened but she either flew out to Detroit to record it & then the masters were also taken back to the West Coast & re-mixed for pressing out there while the Detroit mix was pressed out East. Or she recorded that one in LA & the masters then went to Detroit for a remix. In any case there are two mixes, could have been any number of reasons (overdubs, time constraints, pricing, someone screwed up & sent the wrong tape copy to the plant, who really knows), but from memory they aren't that different. I don't even own either copy anymore either so someone else will have to confirm. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ian Seaman Posted August 12, 2009 Share Posted August 12, 2009 DMW-XL-114312 would seem to be the normal issue. WXB-118209 with alt matrix no of S4KM-0728-1 was issued with a picture sleeve I can remember seeing the alt matrix No copy in a US price guide at $600 about 8 years ago but can't remember who's it was think this also applies to WDJ copies too Ian.
