How many legit issues were there and what years? The Manship guide has some good photos but nothing about pressing dates or that sort of thing.

I know some soulie out there has got the info I need:rolleyes:.

There's the pale blue Detriot issue and a (same colour) circa stamped West Coast issue - boot wise a green one from the mid seventies and a yellow '2nd issue'

think thats it - the West Coast is rare, the Detriot one turned up in bulk in the late 80's (think most assumed it was a boot)

pressing dates no idea 67' maybe?

Would agree with above. The light blue Detroit issue has a Bell Sound machine stamp.

Deffo can confirm the bell sound in the run out for the detriot issue....

also and it's very much a *maybe* the detriot one that I had was Nashville stamped...two runs at different plants?

Thanks!

So the west coast copy is the only confirmable legit pressing, the Detroit pressing is a big maybe and all others are boots for sure?

If anyone has got the west coast or detroit issue i might be interested. Just drop me a line.

I'm not 100% but if I remember right it's the west coast copy that's got the rossette on the label.

Funny thing is that I sold it New Years Day 1980, 30 years ago.

The 'Rosette' is the circa stamp - has a very nice sleeve as well - they were some kind of distrubution company kinda like J/G, but west coast based....

yeah it's mega rare - never seen the Detriot DJ copy....

all the best

I never had the co. sleeve, when I had it.

Had all my records back than in white cardboard sleeves.

I did keep all the sleeves, I don't know way, but I'm glad a did.

I was talking to John Duckworth from Heywood at a do late80s/early90s?

Told him I had loads, so he came around to my house at bought them.

Try Tricky on here, he has the 'Rosette' design copy or he certainly did have

thank you.

When this was big in the early days the only copies i ever saw were the west coast Circa Rosette issues.The detroit copies only seemed to turn up Stafford era ish when J E Morgan was played.For a long time it was thought they were re-issues.It would be nice to hear Gillys thoughts on this.

I remember Willie from Tod had two copies of the Detriot press for sale at Bank Hall Miners, I did not think they were real at the time.

So it sort of ties in with the Stafford era.

the light blue label detroit issue has a "bell sound" and a "ARP" stamp

Looks nice in the company sleeve....

So....what does this one go for?

Oh yes, very nice

Sold the west coast copy a couple of years back for £200

Well, it looks like there is also a boot with the Circa Rosette on it too.

The font on the lettering looks a bit bolder, and the "A" inside the rosette is a lower case "a" instead of a capitol one.  Otherwise, it looks quite close to the west coast styrene pressing.

If anyone has the Detroit copy with Bell sound stamp, I am stillllllll looking for that one.   Please PM me.  Thanks!
