Interesting thought (may be!) looking at your scan, Chris...all the copyright info and 'stand-up grooves' (to stop them slipping) would have been on the stampers if these were made in the traditional vinyl-stamping manner, so were these made by the injection of vinyl, like they did for styrene?

Good question David, couldn't tell you though, not really sure when it was released either, can't find out of it's a 1st or 2nd issue. No NS anoraks in Holland I'm afraid :(

Well here's a scan of the cover & label of the original Dutch Bobby Hebb 45 released in November 66 ..........

.... so the one above has to be the 70's reissue (following the 45's UK popularity & re-release) ....

Why would it be on styrene, it's just a standard injection moulded monstrosity, they began creeping into the UK in 1971, after that maybe 80% of Polygram records were pressed like that, the one on the scan matches the UK reissue, which is also available as plastic label and, much scarcer paper label.

Brazilian Motown

The rumour (pardon the pun) that went the rounds way back then was that "Tell me it is just a rumour" was on Israeli Motown,

we now all know it was actually Dutch.
