There is no original 12", it was an LP track and also promo'd on 7", but never released as a 12" until maybe about 10 years ago, so you have a reissue. cheers Sutty

In that case I'd be pretty pissed off I'd bought either of these... https://www.popsike.com/php/detaildatar.php?itemnr=4710185239 https://www.popsike.com/php/detaildatar.php?itemnr=180442546381 for 175 or 269 dollars!
September 15, 201014 yr The 12" is a boot, no official release, although it's indemand in it's own right now apparently!
September 15, 201014 yr Some people really need to do a little homework before shelling out that kind of money for a latter day bootleg of a non-existent original 1977 12". I notice the wording on the ads is somewhat ambiguous describing it as a 1977 recording but also saying original 12", which is pretty lame and slightly deceitful marketing from the sellers points of view... but if someone is willing to pay the money for a counterfeit, who can blame them for taking it? cheers Sutty

If anyone wants to give me $269 for it,they can have it:rolleyes: I'll settle for the CD

Buyers must be careful and try and find out as much info as they can before shelling out. Naughty if you ask me......... Best, Ivor
September 20, 201014 yr I had to look at my copy, which I bought new a few years back, to see if it had the "circle p" 1977 date on it. Yup. Deceiving on all sides. I can see how a buyer would see that 1977 date and think it was a legit deal. Tsk tsk. I can also see how a seller could come across a copy and not have any idea that it's a new release. Well...besides the 90s era inner paper sleeve -- about the only tip off I can see.
