Anoraks Corner Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Which is the definitive 1st press? The ones with the separate 'block-lettering' of HME, or the ones where the HME letters are 'merged and arched'? Rough valuations for each also appreciated. TIA Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Tommy1 Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 I don't know why, but I would guess that the one with the separate 'block-lettering' is the 2nd press... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Soulfuljules Posted November 28, 2010 Share Posted November 28, 2010 I recently bought a mintish copy with the separate "block lettering" on here for 350 ukp. don't know if it's a 1st or 2nd press, but it's surely an amazing record and real floorfiller. both copies on popsike are with the block lettering and far cheaper than 350 ukp...

It's a killer record for sure and a real floorfiller. I heard that when the record was "discovered" some DJs paid a LOT of money for it Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pomonkey Posted November 29, 2010 Share Posted November 29, 2010 I've had 7-8 of these, kept one of each lettering style, went as high as $1,500 to funk collectors when it was a total unknown, has dropped somewhat now but still not an easy record, total dancefloor destroyer.

Yeah, it was kinda bonkers the price it went for considering how many copies are (probably) out there.....good to see it's resting closer to a realistic value of $250-ish.

Pomonkey Posted November 30, 2010 Share Posted November 30, 2010 All came from "old" sources, no reason to believe both weren't done around the same period for whatever reason, not a recent press by any means Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
