Ady Croasdell Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Flip of He's A Lover Arock. A copy I just played has what we thought was the unissued Baby Take It Slow on the flip, not WTGGR. Are they all the same? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Come on folks, this is quite interesting, do you have an unreleased side in your collection or the one as advertised on the label? When The Going Gets Rough is a great little dancer too! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Jez Bishop Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Afternoon Ady - Most interesting . My copy (AR - 1012) has 'When the going gets rough' on flip. Never seen the other title. What a mystery. ' Baby Take It Slow ' slightly issued then? Cheers, Jez Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Robbk Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I have "When The Going Gets Rough" on mine (AR-1012). It has " AR - 1012 - B (-2) " engraved in the trailer, with a very faint " 420 " lightly etched in on the opposite side of the label. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Mine has the same AR marking but it doesn't look like 420. Presumably you played it? If so there are two different records. Thanks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted April 19, 2016 Author Share Posted April 19, 2016 Funnily enough my colleague has a copy that plays Baby Take It Slow but doesn't have the (-2) at the end. Confused: I am Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Britishbarry Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 Mine plays say's WTGGR but play's Baby Take it Slow and has AR-1012-B (-2) etched in. I don't think this add's to the debate though. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It shows us the relative amounts of each press, if Robb confirms his plays WTGGR Thanks Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted April 19, 2016 Share Posted April 19, 2016 I don't have a stylus right now, and my sound system is in storage. I don't know anyone near me that has a record player. I am almost certain that my copy plays "When The Going Gets Rough", otherwise I would remember that this record in my collection was an anomaly, having a misprinted label. I've had the record since 1964. So, surely I would have remembered the misprinted label. I never knew anything about a misprint on that issue. I'd have been looking for years (and remembered looking) to find a pressing with the "real" be side if I would have had a misprinted label. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Nice try Robb, but I'll need it confirming before I could say it exists as such. Are you sure the light scratching says 420? Mine looks a bit that way but I don't think it actually is; it's more like two numbers on top of each other. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

It's really hard to read at ANY angle, even in the best lighting. I can't really make out anything certain other than the "4". Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ady Croasdell Posted April 20, 2016 Author Share Posted April 20, 2016 Same here Rob, another reason why I'd love you to find a record player. I'd have thought it would have been a priority for you! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Bigsoulman Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 Just dug my copy out and indeed it plays Baby Take It Slow instead of WTGGR. Scratched at the run out is AR-1012-B and also 1.95 with LS underneath it and a large O at the side of it. Interesting, nice tune as well. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Robbk Posted April 20, 2016 Share Posted April 20, 2016 It's probably been 50 years since I played the "B" side. I LOVE "He's A Lover", but was indifferent about the flip. So, maybe it was "Take it Slow", after all. But, I must admit that upon hearing "Take it Slow" on the link above, it didn't ring a brell, at all - as if I've never heard it. But, if I had a gun to my head, based on what everyone else has said, I'd guess that mine probably is the misprint, just like the others. Mine does NOT have the 1.95 with LS under, nor the large "O". 8 hours ago, ady croasdell said: Same here Rob, another reason why I'd love you to find a record player. I'd have thought it would have been a priority for you! I just have no time to deal with buying a new cartridge and stylus, and setting up my equipment to play records. I work more than full time (probably70-80 hours per week) on my cartooning work, for Dutch, Danish, Swedish and German Disney (and with a business partner's animation firm (in Munich), and live in 5 places through each year (The Netherlands, Denmark, Germany, Canada and USA) and am quite busy when in each place. So, I mainly listen to CDs and music on You-Tube (or copied from You-Tube). I don't have time to make the difference in sound quality worth the effort to play my records. Most of what I have on record is available to me on You-Tube or digital sound files, or CDs. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
