Thanks

[Andy Rix]

If you have to have it on vinyl there is this unofficial release from the early 80's -

Sorry for hijacking this thread. Got my copy like almost everybody else in the early 90s. It came in white cardboard sleeve and with the photocopied track listing done by Rob's brother Chris as shown in the pic.

Discogs lists another issue/press whatever with a proper colour printed sleeve and inlay. Has anyone seen that before?

The Hitsville Masters - Volume 1 (1982, Vinyl) - Discogs

 

Discogs lists both presses as from 1982. The white card board press is definitely early 90s. Maybe the other one is infact from 1982?

Mine looks a tad different. Was the scan above a slip sleeve that came with it?

I do remember there being a 7 inch of Marvin Gaye -Lonely lover, which had 'Advance Promo Copy' or 'Advance Release' something like that written across it.

The printed sleeve if memory serves was done a few years later, 50 copies I think.  They were both from the 90s, discogs again has it wrong.  They had only just been discovered in 1982.  The only released track, Eddie Holland, is on there because it was a big record for Rob at the time.
