I'm good thanks Steve and trust you & you and yours are all good too..

I'm certain i've at least seen a Larks 45 on green & white but not aBetty Swan.. are you saying you have? Or just another release in that format?

There's a betty Swan album called the Money years and on that there's a picture of the demo, I can't have just seen it on that, I'm sure I have seen them. May not even be that record on the cover, not got the album anymore to check. Probably mistaken. 

All good mate thank you very much.

That's the Kent LP ... ? ... the demo on the cover of that is "Don't Wait Too Long" , the Make Me Yours pictured is the black issue.

There's some info here suggesting that they didn't skimp on promotion for the single so you'd think there'd be umpteen demos about ?

Just checked a copy of the LP you quoted Steve and it does indeed show a demo! Top Man and thank you 👍

So.. all I need now is someone to sell me a copy 😁

I remember talking to Carl Willingham many years ago and I am positive he said he had Make Me Yours on promo copy,he said at the time that it was extremely Rare. Chris.

It does exist as a Double A Side Promo. Extremely Rare. Took me ages to find a copy.

MONEY 126

The Stock Copy does however have 2 slightly different labels. Only ever seen the DEMO as the above design.

Money_126a-1-1.jpgMoney_126b-1-1.jpg

The following released DEMO also a Double A Side.

MONEY 127

This MONEY 110 DEMO for me begs the question of more than one DEMO for any of the other releases.

If you study the label for "MICKEY'S EAST COAST JERK"

there are 2 different print runs for the A Side during the change to the B Side.

MONEY 110

MONEY_110-A_DJ.jpgMONEY_110-B_DJ.jpg

As I mentioned earlier there are 2 different Stock Copy label designs for "MAKE ME YOURS"

Regarding the existance of more than 1 DEMO for MONEY 126.

We can be more certain as time passes but never say never as there are still surprises out there.

Thanks Steve @WoodButcher

Managed to confuse myself - which, as you know, isn't that hard !!

Many thanks for the scans and info Roger @45cellar

So, in summary, defo black label demos of the B Swann 45 - with a white demo NOT to be discounted as there may be copies out there.. Somewhere !!

I would think it very unlikely that the earlier white demo label design would have been used beyond the 1965 releases.

Checking through my DEMOs sitting on either side of MONEY 126 "Make Me Yours" there are A & B Side DEMOs

I was just speculating that there could be the possibility of another DEMO release for MONEY 126 including the B Side.

There was a thread on Soul Source where MONEY 126 had been seen on a list as an A & B SIDE DEMO but no scan. (Typo perhaps) ?

However, I would guess to it being a Black label as it was released in 1967.

MONEY 113 -- (1965)

MONEY 122 - (1966)

MONEY 135 -- (1968)
