There has been a spate of these selling for £50-£60 on eBay, with several being listed at any one time.

Great record but surely not rare at all. Is this another outbreak of eBay madness? Or am I missing something?

USA release on SOUL S35014, label available in both designs (tramlines and concentric circles), seem to think concentric circle design is a bit scarcer (one of the first on that design) but both can be picked up quite cheap. Good sound though. Dean

What great scans. I can't understand the opinion of anyone who spouts that labels aren't important. Great, beautiful art.

Different DJ copy design (apart from the bloody biro that is!)

Agree about Labels being a Beautiful Art form, I find them fascinating

with all the different Variations & Designs over such a Small Canvas.

That's a RARE One Mate, I haven't seen that variation before for 35014

This one just arrived today, not easy to find as a DEMO either.

Is it just me, or does this not look right?

I know exactly what you mean, However I have seen various numbers as a Soul DEMO with this Design.

I haven't seen one close up, only scans, they are the West Coast Variation.

There's a couple of design variations. Delta 58666 (biro on ther side dates at 9-20-65) and a good strong stamp S4KM - 9932 - 1 on this one. Feels right.

I haven't seen one close up, only scans, but I believe they may be a West Coast Variation.

I think it's the font of SOUL, haven't seen it before on a 60s record,

Probably me being too suspicious, don't trust anything unless it's Nashville Matrixed and even then............

I've seen this design with the info round the bottom, and don't doubt the EVD is real, just looked 'different' for some reason

Another subtle difference that looks wrong but feels right:

And having now seen this Sammy Ward, I'm going to forget everything I ever learned about being able to tell an original from a boot!!!!

It's the Motown stuff, so many different Pressing Plants Involved.

Notice how SOUL is slightly different on the Jimmy Ruffin DEMO

Thanks Roger, that's 7 different demo designs just on this thread.........

Minefield

Just zipped up my anorak and nipped upstairs, counted 9 different b/w dj SOUL label varaitions, thats not including print and paper quality, different designs. Must start looking at porn.

Minefield

It is a Minefield, However with Motown Labels there are quite a few Different pressing plants involved & the vast majority are OK.

Here's a Couple on Tamla, again they have different credit layout, as they are different pressing plant.

I know what you mean Dean

Still can't get over that Sammy Ward design, I would have bet money on that one.....

I guess we're lucky that there aren't too many Motown related boots, apart from the obvious ones,

The Sammy Ward has a MR stamp, R 4KM - 9399 - 1, dleta 53820.

There is a boot of S35018 b/w promo Barbara Randolph, I Got A Feeling, that gets passed off.
