Am aware this came out twice on Special Agent, but does anyone know if it was ever booted on the same label.

Incorrect title

If you've got one that's credited to Sly Johnson then I'd say yes it was , badly ...

No boots as far as I know.

White Demo's and RED issues better take with piano intro, YELLOW issues without piano intro I think not so desirable

Not booted but re-issued as a look alike in a Syl Johnson double 45 "box-set" by the Numero Group team a little while ago... It was a re-issue of the Special Agent 201 release I think, the one with the longer-slow intro...

not a lookalike at all, totally different label for the box set 45.

both versions are available on red label, only way to tell the difference is the deadwax.

I thought it was to do with the 200 release (red and WDJ), though it's with the long intro, but maybe not on some red ones then.... and the 201 yellow release. But that is only a belief I have... I'll be glad to learn better since I don't have it myself and am after the short intro...

looks good to me, deadwax should tell you which version it is 

Deadwax is quite wide with only number etched in

this one can be pretty confusing, here is, i hope, a simple definitive rundown as best as i know.

so there are 2 label numbers, 200 & 201, two different versions.  The one with extra horns intro & extra "claves" or trigger triangle (hard to tell, could be a faux claves just hitting a couple pieces of metal together or could be a trigger triangle) (to basically differentiate it) which isn't on Youtube & the one without horns (piano/drums intro) on the intro. 

 

200 (b/w The Love I Found In You)

White label (piano intro, deadwax SP1)

Red label (piano intro, deadwax SP1)

Red label (horns intro, deadwax 20079-2)

201 (b/w Things Ain't Right)

White label (horns intro, deadwax 20079-2)

Yellow label (horns intro, deadwax 20079-2) 

The box set issue is the piano intro version.

it will be the horns intro, as far as i know, all 201 white label & yellow labels are the horns intro

i did not know about this boot, wonder which version this is?

Edited July 13, 20169 yr by Kris Holmes

White label (horns intro, deadwax 20079-2)

Thats the one

Reason I ask is because I like the record and remember Derek Allen playing it. 

Anyway one was in for sales on here (red one which got sold) so I googled and on the first page this was available (2 weeks ago) for $6.99, which I obviously purchased.

Would appear I got a bargain!

boot or not!

Thank you for your help

200 mix is brilliant... 201 doesnt seem to catch fire ... sounds like someone throwing a load of heavy chains around in the background

or somebody banging on an anvil in the background
