boba Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 this record was a big hit. that is a reissue label (despite someone writing a '65 date on the label). it looks like your sleeve also says so. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

steve Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Can anyone give me any detail about this copy, ie what release issue was it and when this got a release, thank you in advance Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
boba Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 that is an original, comes in several label variations (blue chess, black chess, etc.), hard to tell which came first, second, when they came out as it was a hit Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garethx Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 ^ The orange and yellow arrow design above is an original Monarch press. Can't think of terribly many Chess releases pressed there at the time, but there were at least a couple. The blue and white label copy in the first post dates from the time Sylvia Robinson of All Platinum fame acquired the Chess catalogue in the late 70s to early 80s. Chess was then subsequently sold to MCA. The 'never sounded better' blurb on the sleeves is sort of misleading as I don't think there was any radical remastering done and the releases ended up on really thin styrene.

Some of the all platinum presses (I think they actually acquired GRT which had previously acquired chess) are totally different mixes actually, as they released stereo mixes sometimes of stuff that was only mono. I have a billy stewart "I do love you" that is stereo on the later press. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garethx Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 ^ Point taken Bob, but I Do Love You was available as a true stereo mix from at least the second pressing of the original album (with the photographic cover) and maybe even the first. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Thanks. I guess it was the first stereo version available on the 45 and (as you point out), they probably didn't remix it for the 45. I've definitely seen some other later chess presses that ended up differently mixed than the originals. It probably is just due to sloppiness and choosing a random master rather than an intentional thing. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

There is a release of JACKIE ROSS 'Selfish one' on the orange and yellow, I have one. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
