Searching for it on Discogs took me less time than you opening a new thread for it

Yes, it's rather rare:

Thanks Benji .I looked at discogs too,but still can't see the number FL2052...am I being thick or summat !!!

[Benji]

you're right. The link I posted leads to a different dutch release. Seems like you got a pretty exclusive record.

[Clive Phillips]

Cheers Benji...Still only worth a tenner tho' ....

According to the discography of Dutch London-label releases on 45Cat website, FL2052 would have been issued late 62 or early 63. Sadly the release isn't listed, but FL2051 is listed as being released in Dec 62, and FL2054 in Feb 63.

The other Dutch 45 of Comin' Home (AH 101) is listed as having been released in October 62, a few months earlier, so it's reasonably safe to figure that your FL2052 is a repress.

AH 101 seems to be listed here as November 1963....

With only a few months between them and nearly 55 years ago, I think both are worthwhile having, whichever was first.

 

Nice topic.
