There is another version of "Sold on you" by Johnny Moore on Bright Star. It's called something like "I'm sold on your love" it's also on Bright Star but a different label design. Anybody know who it's by and what it's worth ? Chris

 

This ?

£20 ?

Also came out on Bright Star by Classmates. Exactly the same as the Coronadas and both carry the same sublime flip You can do me some good.More £30 now i would have thought.

Tricky

Is it Johnny Moore on the Coronadas version as well? Sounds like it to me

We only played it on a portable record player in a hall with lots of noise so was tough to really hear. They play the Class Mates version over here a Popcorn choon

Totally same lead; Johnny Moore with indeed the kids chorus. The Class Mate is the local issue and re-baptized as the Coronadas for the Atlantic national distribution release.

such a great tune too, had a demo for years, shame it's so slow for most venues !!, love the beginning where it sounds like a cowboy movie theme lol

I seem to remember also having The Coronadas on a local Chicago plant pressing (same plant as Classmates), not the Monarch L.A. pressing shown above, and I seem to remember it not being distributed by Atlantic.  I'll have to check it when I get home.

I'd even say it's the same backing as the Johnny Moore release.

I clearly remember Richard Searling on one of his radio shows saying something like "I went through 1000s of records in the States but I never came across this one". And played the Johnny Moore release. Stuck in my head ever since. Fantastic record. Whatever version.

Here's a couple of different label designs, you wonder hwy that would happen to a small label with small quantaties ?

2 different pressing plants for the Atlantic national distribution; top one "Speciality" & below one 'Pennsylvania', that is why !

Seller was asking about that for it, offered him £16 but he turned it down.

Hi Paul, I don't think it's another "mix" but rather a re-mastering work for the pressing plant. In your case the Pennsylvania pressing plant (see the PL extension on the matrix). I had the Class-Mates then got the Coronadas on the SP pressing (Speciality pressing plant). These two are very-very close sound-wise. Where the PL and the Monarchs pressings, also going through their own mastering phase to do their pressing accordingly, tend to sound rather different I agree. The PL are harsher and the Monarchs deeper and the SP smoother.
