OK, I'm not into the finer points of vinyl identification 'cos I still don't consider myself a collector and 'cos my eyesight ain't usually good enough to read the matrix. But it was good enough to read this:

1) DON'T HEAR, SPEAK, SEE NO EVIL

2) HEAR NO EVIL, SPEAK NO EVIL, SEE NO EVIL

Both by the Platters on Musicor MU-1166 with "I Love You 1000 Times" on the flip.

The first copy, with a well worn label, I've had for years.

The second is a recent purchase, label & vinyl about mint. If this is a re-issue/boot WHY THE TITLE CHANGE?

There are other minor differences but unfortunately I am unable to put up scans.

Any thoughts on this?

Thanks Chris.

I reckon the 2nd copy is a legit re-issue as the song is credited to 2 band members (Herb Ward, Nate Nelson) whereas my original copy is only credited to Nate Nelson. Who else would bother with altering that?

I reckon the "new" title, 'cos it makes more sense and can be remembered, is what it was perhaps mean't to be in the first place.

I know that I seem to have answered my own question here

- but undoubtedly, as usual, I will be proved wrong

I have discussed this topic with others before , and from those discussions , I was led to believe that copies bearing the

" revised " title - HNO , SNE , SNE - was because of a relaunch of / for the disc .....

Thanks Malc, that's what I reckoned but was hoping you would post to confirm.

Cheers!

I am almost sure - but as I have not seen one since the old king died - the UK release of the disc , had the revised title ......

I have both title variations (one on a demo) the matrix on the demo reads: ZTSP106382-1A & the issue reads: ZTSP106382-1D

Not sure what this signifies!

maybe the later issue"hno,sno,sno"came out so peeps could identify with the chorus better,and therefore generate sales?

The other title "dyh,s,sno" is also the title version that came out on Stateside,backed with"love you a 1000 times".Great tune btw.KEV.

Hear is another delta stamped.

Nor me, but my 2 copies are ZTSP106382-1B and 1C, so maybe we've got the set between us!

My newer (HNO,SNO,SNO) copy has the MU-1166 number on the right of the label, and my old copy has that on the left of the label, so going by the scans put up that is another variation for both titles

Can't believe I'm getting involved in this...... I started it..........I'll get my anorak
