If my old memory serves me well Joe Valentine released the re issue (not bootleg) himself in the late 90's.

Yes as said done by Joe Valentine himself.

Thanks Folks, looks like i have the re-issue here

Bootleg or Legal reissue are just the same to an originals collector, neither are authentic!

dont think it was late 90`s tho... about 5 years later than that

I thought it was early noughties too...

I recall speaking with Pat Brady about this a couple of years ago but I can't remember the full story, other than Joe did apparently receive an appropriate amount for the re-issue run (not sure how many were pressed)...I'm sure Pat be happy to speak with anyone who wants to know more.

I have a near mint original with just a couple of light clicks at the start if anyone is interested then please PM me with a sensible offer (sorry I know this isn't sales forum but thought I'd mention it).

All the best, Steve
