Just wondered if anyone ever got one of these mis-presses?
I know that Jumbo records in Leeds got some sent in their order when they got the vocal ones, and were offered out to customers, but not knowing how rare it would become, they refused them . Apparently 'Hunter Smith' The then owner sent them all back. When he realised how rare it would be, he rang the company up to see if he could get them back, but was told that they had been melted down.
I wonder if any other shops got any, and did anyone buy one?

Billy Harner - What about the music instrumental

"he rang the company up to see if he could get them back" - I'll bet he did! Pretty sharpish as well.

Probably offered to come down in a taxi to pick 'em up (all the way from Leeds).

Oh well it's only vinyl.
