Just got a nice WD of The Impressions - Minstrel and Queen on ABC Paramount through, very happy and all that, but I'm not convinced, no Bell stamp, and the vinyl although thick, just does not look like an original early sixties 45 to me, I may be wrong, does anybody know whether this was booted on the Doo Wop scene? know anything about possible boots on this title..

 

Its a shame cause it was to replace an Issue I only got a few weeks ago, I hope it does not have to go back, but got it from a USA dealer on eBay, so if it is a boot, what are my options with eBay? do they recognize boots sold as originals?

 

any help appreciated.

and the scan of the 45 below.. WD obviously but no actual words saying Promotional copy... is that right?

Can't see that ever being booted mate.  Fantastic record but surely not rare enough to warrant a bootleg.

thats what I thought, not with standing the Doo Wop scene... I know they have booted allot of 45s in the past...

i'm pretty sure there was not a doowop boot and that looks like a real copy

thanks guys, you know how it is, we've all looked at allot of original 45's, and every once in a while, you look twice.....and question..
