Those red one, I always thought they were pressings because they only seemed to appear in 1976 - I wonder if they were a legit custom press for the Northern scene?

If I remember the pressing label was very off centre,as of a few of the Carnival songs were repeated and updated (production)

Perhaps label owner Joe Evans simply just kept recycling existing tracks on subsequent releases to save money on recording new tracks to use as flip sides.

 

This extract from the Carnival list of releases (from Dave Rimmer's site)  indicates that I Wanna Be, Hearts Were Made To Love, Just You Wait & See, What Is Love and Sweet Potato Gravy were all used more than once ...

Carnival 550 - I Call It Love / Feelin' Good*- 1970 *Flip By The Carnival Kings.  

Carnival 552 - I Wanna Be  / Hearts Were Made To Love - 1970
