February 21, 200718 yr The boot is also on vinyl, a good lookalike, but poor sound quality dubbed of a scratchy original
February 22, 200718 yr The boot is also on vinyl, a good lookalike, but poor sound quality dubbed of a scratchy original Mary Love may possibly have been bootlegged in 1974 when Wigan was playing "Hawaii Five-0" as the Arthur Wright Orchestra - which was also bootlegged on a facsimile Modern label I believe, along with Jackie Day's "Before It's Too Late".... 'course I may be totally wrong but it's 4.45am and I'm bored...
February 22, 200718 yr So were they boots or semi-legal reissues, seeing as they got hold of the instrumental tracks for the b-sides?
February 22, 200718 yr Can't be doing with lifting boxes off boxes to check deadwax -- but while both are vinyl, the paper on the original label is smooth with the black ink sitting clearly against the background -- as in pics above -- whereas the boot label is slightly textured paper with poorer print defintion. Pretty important to recognise, not least because even a mint boot plays like the dog has been at it. I now wait to be corrected
