Wheelsville1 Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 After listening to Tats play some absolute top drawer sounds on Dean Andersons show on thursday eve,this song has me wondering if it was not only withdrawn but also that the label owners were forced to destroy all the copies that were pressed.I have never seen a copy in the flesh or ever seen one for sale.

Ladymidnight Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 There’s been a couple of copies up for sale in the last few years, but definitely a tough find. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chalky Posted July 10, 2022 Share Posted July 10, 2022 I'm sure it was played at one of the Lifeline Weekenders? Extremely rare. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Steve G Posted July 11, 2022 Share Posted July 11, 2022 (edited) It wasn't withdrawn. Low press run (300 I believe) and what copies sent out were sent to activists etc. A few may have gone to "friendly" radio stations. My copy came from a former black political campaigner. The single version on Turbo is both shorter and has a different intro to all of the reissues on CD and vinyl, so at least two versions / tapes must have been made.
