the boot is blue only. All yellow copies and white djs are originals. There is also an original blue label copy. How to tell the difference: Originals have a slightly more squared edge an

Personally, my theory is that Rock Candy only ever recorded ONE track, and that was "I Don't Think I'll Ever Love Another". My guess is that Joe Tate, or whoever was in charge of Dontee,

I should also add that I think the Contemplations is definitely the one to go for, as it also has the awesome instrumental (backing track) of 'Alone With No Love' by the Dontee Studio Ban
Need some help peeps
Reading the various tome's I'm not 100% on whether a copy of Rock Candy on Dontee I have is an original or not?
First of all it's a light Blue label in vinyl and does look good!
Run out groove on the 'Alone with no love' side (actually the B side) reads-
45rpm at 6 o'clock
Dontee 101-A2 at 5 o'clock
"Alone with no love" at 4 o'clock
2/18/71 and a 'squiggle' at 3 o'clock
All fairly legible but not that deep that you can feel it?
Run out groove on the 'I don't think' side (actually the A side) reads-
Dontee 103-A at 6 o'clock (barely visible)
IC at 3 o'clock
and that's all there is on this side!
As I said it's not easy to work out from the books BUT I suspect it is a boot (or a legal label reissue?) and if it is, I wondered if anyone can confirm what a true light Blue label original has in the run out grooves, particularly the A side?
Many thanks in advance
Cheers
Steve
