Just been reading the discussion about the moral & legal implications of 'pressings' with great interest. It seems to me that so long as no deception involved this is just a bit of fun. It's got more to do with owning a fake Rolex than is has with faking penicillin.
But what about covering up a record? Take for example Richard Searling's pretending that Little Ann was really Rose Valentine for 20 years. If he had declared 'What Should I Do?' as being by Little Ann wouldn't a demand for the real record have been created that would have encouraged the record company to release it? This would have given the singer a real stab at some money in her life-time.
