This is a one sided disk (Tatty) turned up a a collection the other week. The play slide is The seven souls - I still Love you. I thought it was a carver but the play side has the correct stamped Matrix ? Anyone come across this or knows the story?

    Chalky, when I worked at Fania I had access to the archive, and one sided test presses were done on a number of releases. They were the same as a two sided test pressing but split across two discs (at

  • Unless the Test Press was x2 single sided I have no idea. The fact the originals have etched Matrix and this is stamped bungs further confusion at this one.

  • JZSP Normally in the DEMO deadwax and printed on the Demo label. I have found instances where certain Stock Copies have this too. I have copies of Soul A Go Go on a Stock Copy with this.

As a comparison at Columbia.

The 50 single sided DEMO Scott's On Swingers were ZTSC matrix stamped.

In small number for the competition prize.

The double sided Scott's On Swingers Demos have a scratched matrix.

A larger pressed quantity guessing at a different time or pressing plant.

Yes and enough 'odd' examples (something some collectors have come to understand for a while now) have been given to this point. Showing that 'the exception confirms the rule' just as what was happening there at the Columbia pressing plant in regard of the variations of 'scratched in' and 'machined stamp' with and without 'promo prefixes' run out matrixes of original pressing runs. Ruling out this single sided press on that basis only does not 'hold water' IMHO.
