Zanetti Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Hi, Anybody Got An Idea Which Could Be The Rarer One? JM Listed The PG Label ... Only One Went In The Last Years Thanks In Advance Zanetti Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dimples Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 (edited) PG label looks a bit 80s to me. Definitely Gloreco is the original and PG a later bootleg pressing. Edited February 4, 2015 by dimples 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Mace Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Yup, font on PG copy doesn't look right at all..... 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Zanetti Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Wuu - Didn´t know that there is a bootleg - thax guys Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Zanetti Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 But why JM shows it in his Million Dollar soul Book ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
KevH Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Paul Gerrani - producer on label PG.Maybe he did this as a private release........ Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dimples Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 Paul Gerrani - producer on label PG.Maybe he did this as a private release........ It is obviously a deliverate mistake. Real producer is Paul Ciranni as on Gloreco. Paul Gerranni is a fake. Everything on PG is wrong if you compare both labels. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soulhawk Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 PG looks like a 70s pressing and it does turn up occasionally around Detroit, but I can't figure out why the pressing was done - a rock n roll revival collectible? this wasn't played in England until the 80's right?

Zanetti Posted February 4, 2015 Author Share Posted February 4, 2015 Once Again ... Why Does JM Show It In His Book - Always thought It Contains Only RARE ORIGINAL Stuff ? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Tlscapital Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 JM is human and he does make mistakes sometimes. Even big as this. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Prophonics 2029 Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 The Gloreco has an RCA matrix stamp in the dead wax. If any one has a copy of the Pg to confirm its the same stamper. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Gointoagogo Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 To answer the original question I think that the later pressing is rarer. There have been loads of the Gloreco sold over the past 3 years - I'm just surprised that it still commands a high price. Still a brilliant record though but I'm waiting till the price falls.

Amsterdam Russ Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 There's a mention of it by Keith Rylatt at the end of this recent Motown Junkies thread. Presumably he doesn't think it a boot. https://motownjunkies.co.uk/2009/10/11/47/ Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Frankie Crocker Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 To answer the original question I think that the later pressing is rarer. There have been loads of the Gloreco sold over the past 3 years - I'm just surprised that it still commands a high price. Still a brilliant record though but I'm waiting till the price falls. The price has fallen considerably with one going for not much more than £200 yesterday. Brad Hales turned up a sizeable quantity a couple of years ago with the first auctioning for about $750. A PG copy sold for a goodly sum a few months ago suggesting this might be an alternative issue. Until the Gloreco hoard came to light, this was the scarcer version: now the PG is relatively scarcer but the doubts surrounding it are justified until someone can verify its origin. I would like to hear John's view of the PG release as there is a story behind it. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
pikeys dog Posted February 4, 2015 Share Posted February 4, 2015 I would't touch a PG copy with a bargepole. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 (edited) I was around when the Gloreco record was released. I used to drive to Detroit 2 Saturdays a month, to look for records. I saw the Gloreco record several times. In all my years of flipping through millions of 45s from 1963 to 1972 (Gloreco was 1963), I NEVER saw the PG record. The type font implies that the PG record was pressed in the late '70s. So, I suspect that it is a boot, or a late '70s repressing by the owner of the master. The mis-spelling makes me lean towards it being a boot. Edited February 5, 2015 by RobbK 2 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
