is there something i dont know about this 45 or are there just two crackpots at large

https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/300780379195?nma=true&si=G%2FyRCAAYgElMXYZGnys6b45FxAY%3D&rt=nc&_trksid=p4340.l2557&orig_cvip=true

Well I'd guess that the picture sleeve only came with SOME copies of the 45 .....

.... but I'd have to agree that whoever paid over $140 for this was off their rocker.

_{Excellent record, but that is ridiculous. I would've thought it charted in the US (sold well anyway)}

I'm pretty sure both sides got radio play. It's crazy though because I just searched musicstack, gemm, discogs, and ebay and there are very few Maze 45s for sale at all. The ones for sale are random titles people don't care about. Maybe someone is cornering the Maze market.

Way too much IMO, but been a sought after 45 for a long time - nothing to do with the pic sleeve I wouldn't have thought. The full length studio version is (i think) only on the Live In New Orleans dbl LP, the 45s have edited versions of the studio cut - the US demo slightly longer, and the UK / US 12" feature a long live version recorded at Hammersmith - which nobody really wanted, nice enough but not a patch on the studio take - silly Capitol record executives.

Released at a time when the 12" was king - I think i've seen under 10 copies of the US / UK 45s in all the years, and they always fly out the door....never seen the French issue....

only got a usa white promo of the studio cut girth was the new orleans version on a 45 then

think its for the joy & pain side as it is not the live Uk version but a bit steep a price will have to put mine up for sale at this price but still a live version but the crowd not so loud if you know what i man

No, but i'd like one if it was....

so would i ..i love the studio version but the live in new orleans is something else,,but at 7 mins long and it would be a shame to edit it ...might not fit comfortably ( sound quality etc) on a 7in// quite playable off the lp..sounded tremendous at monumental girth

Have to disagree with that one mate. That is THE version for me and just about everyone I know, and was a big seller.

Which version would that be ??

i cant find one ian..dont get me wrong i wont buy it as i got a 7in already but ive had a look round and 7s seem a bit thin on the ground period..i still cant account for the $150 ebay sale tho

MMMMMMM! I think ive got that exact record with pic sleeve somewhere i think i'll have to search around and make sure it's put somewhere safe.

If i could pick your brains there guys.

I have The look in your eyes on 45 and my copy plays at the wrong speed. One of my pals has the same record and we've played it back to back on the one turntable and mine defo sounds faster. Its not a prob with the deck. Was this also pressed slightly speeded up? Sorry forgive my lack on knowledge on this. Its always bugged me!

So does mine

soulmac.

Your John will look after it I'm sure.

I've probably already got it on a UK issue. No idea where to start looking to check though.

I'll have to find the time to sort everything into some sort of order in my record boxes.

I spend way more time looking for some 45's than actually playing em.

Ah ! so there is another 1. Any ideas about this being pressed at different speed? For the record i prefer it quicker. Soulmac?
