Gene-R Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 (edited) Old as this post is, so apologies if I've already mentioned it ('cos I can't be assed ploughing through it), but I think white demos of "Every Now and Then" by Cletus Marland on Geneva have got to be up there with the rarest white demos. I think Mark Bicknell had my copy (only one I'd seen or know of) when I sold it - am I right, Mark? Edited September 16, 2011 by Gene-R Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Interesting point Kev, there was no 'DJ Only' or similar text on the label. I still have copies of the red, orange and blue/green label variants and the text/layout on those match the white one, so maybe it is juat another colour variation.

Davetay Posted September 18, 2011 Share Posted September 18, 2011 Yes but this isn't a demo its just a regular issue that was withdrawn/changed when The Players were made to change their name under pressure from The Ohio Players Cheers Paul Paul, You could be right about the Players being a issue, but when I saw the scan that Andy Rex but up, my 1st thoughts where that's what we all had back in the day. Martyn, No idea what this goes for now, but it was about £2 at the time. P. S. I have checked the scan again and it is the same as my old copy. Reguards Dave.

Was thinking the same, looks like my faded blue issue. Don't think it's "washed out" or bleached etc, surely the "Uptite" label title would be greyish, and it still looks black to me. Agree no mention of "DJ" "PROMO" or "ADVANCE" etc anywhere on the label so maybe it is just a very rare colour variation Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Rob You could be right - I saw the one Pete put up last year and it was the same (not the same copy, but the same white stained labels both sides). When I got mine (6 or 7 years ago) I thought from looking at the image it was probably a washed out blue or yellow, but when i saw it in the flesh there was absolutely no hint of either of those colours, so I began to think it was genuinely white. The general opinion, based on viewing scans rather than the actual record, is that it is just water damaged stock, so you could be right. Maybe the ink was of a type that would wash out completely. As to Paul Kyser shedding some truth on it, I'm sure he would find more than a couple of brand new white demos if you asked him.

Anyway the "Thumb A Ride" side was white but the black writing had not faded, the other side was quite normal colouring. It was been talked about before on here, that a certain person from York getting very excited when he saw it. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
