Jim Elliott Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 I'm looking to upgrade my very poorly looking copy that I've had for 30 odd years. Absolutely no idea how much a copy in good nic would be. Any info all? Cheers Jim Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 Is that a blue copy or the Nu VJ copy. For £85? Do me a favour. If it was blue it would be £10. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Peter99 Posted August 9, 2014 Share Posted August 9, 2014 For £85? Do me a favour. If it was blue it would be £10. That's mega cheap for the VJ copy even. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It is a different take to the Nu VJ copy altho I do remember it being sold for £1.20 in the glass box on Wc balcony. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It's no different apart from 5 notes at the end of the record, when it comes to a sudden halt Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Neil Rushton Posted January 8, 2015 Share Posted January 8, 2015 The NUVJ people sent me 400 of the W/DJ demos for free many years ago. The demos had been stuck in their USA office all the time the record was repressed and so on.. I rang them up about licensing "Come On Train" for Inferno and in passing said to the guy on the other end of the phone that I really wanted a W/DJ copy. (A few years earlier I had a W/DJ one given to me by David Yates at DJM which got broken one particularly drunken night when we were playing records the night before a Ritz All-Dayer and I had never even seen a demo since) Dave released "Come On Train" in the UK and was sent from NUVJ/Vee Jay the one W/DJ copy which I wangled from him. I don't think anyone in the UK had ever seen another demo, which makes sense as I had now found out they had been lying in this office all this time. Anyway the guy was nonplussed and asked why I wanted a promo copy and I replied because I collected them. He said hang on a minute and came back and said we have 400 or so here, did I want them?. I spluttered yes please and he said as long as you send the advance for the Inferno release they would send the records for free. Didn't even charge postage. Unfortunately the Northern scene was imploding at the time and I sold them dirt cheap!. 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest Gogs Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 Had my w/dj for a long time, so maybe have to say thank you Neil, so thanks. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The guy who was selling them must have had about 25 pink issues but I think just a couple of Demos. I bought the Demo and one of my mates bought a pink issue( which I now have !).... It's funny because he also had probably 50- 100 copies of Epitome of sound as well ( proper ones of course).... Everything was in multiples ! (These were being sold at a local Northern Soul night)... I wonder who it was ? Probably came via you though Neil ! I wonder though which is rarer now ? The W/D or Pink issue.... Great record any way you look at it !

Did a load of the white demos go to Dave Withers - I remember him selling copies off for £4 and I think he had pink issues at £3 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
John Benson Posted January 9, 2015 Share Posted January 9, 2015 I'm fairly sure my white demo came from Dave Withers at around £3 to £4 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
