Hi all,

been on the web browsing folks playlists and the old Carlettes 45, which has two great sides I'm Getting tired/Lost without your love seems to still turn up getting plays of late...

I then turned to u-tube to have a listen and there are a couple of files on there one which looks like a pressing with a very big runout but the other is a gold looking label I have done a bit of searching and know that it also came out on Capitol

upon a bit further searching I had a look in Manships how to spot bootlegs book and it says

"2nd press is gold with red lettering original was released on Capitol, but the local label bobby robinson release is supposed to exist but he is yet to see one"

I have searched and found a scanned picture of the same gold one that is on utube but if Manship has never seen one then just how rare is it ?

and what value...?

ps I have managed to pick up one on capitol

Ive seen the original BR release and the label differs in design from the bootleg

so yes it indeed exists ..But RARE it defo is

gasher

Here is a scan from the anoraks corner site

the original gold label local issue....

how many are out there..?

Odd isn't it, all the time I had one I assumed the Capitol copy to be the rare one. I've never seen one, and the gold/red BR copy only cost me £8!

best,

RB

local issue is very hard sold the other copy for 400 on here bout 8 months ago-it went immediatly.

Again it is where you live, Capital copies fairly common anywhere between £5-£8 back than.

I didn't even know of it being on BR till late 80s, about 7/8 years after I had sold my collection.

here's a scan of my copy,there's a couple on popsike.com

Capital label, looks to credit it to the cOrlettes

And the 2nd press, Boot?...

Capital label, looks to credit it to the cOrlettes

issued on capitol credited to CARLETTS and also mis spelled CORLETTS

THOUGHT SO.

local issue is very hard sold the other copy for 400 on here bout 8 months ago-it went immediatly.

unclear which copy you mean you sold for 400 ? do you mean the gold BR local issue as per the anoraks corner scan

No one's mentioned yet, but the boot sounds horrible. I had never seen a copy of the original BR, maybe that sounds better? Anyways, the Capitol copies sound great.

Think its one of the harder Boots nowadays, and to be fair my copy sounds fine.. aint half as bad as some others a bout, ie jimmy conwell, donna king etc, to name 2..also the original aint particulary rare,,

...not to forget the Capitol bootleg.

Any info on this? Matrix details etc.

Have seen two pressings on Capitol, one as Carletts and one as Corletts but both of those were originals.

BR copy I had sounded fine - looked like it had been danced on, but sounded fine!
