Any help would be really nice ! Thanks M Just thought that I would bring this to the Top. I have tried to find out, apart from the Information on >>> Anorak's Corner <<< I can't find much about the period of use, for such a well known "Matrix Stamp". There is a Suggestion on this >>> LINK <<< (Post #12 & #15) That it came to an end 1975/76 Edited April 18, 200817 yr by 45cellar

Info on South American Latin releases is impossible to non existent !!!!!! Edited April 19, 200817 yr by mossy

Info on South American Latin releases is impossible to non existent !!!!!! No problem Mate. As you say the Information possibly Non-Existent. There are some on Popsike.com (STEREO & MONO), but I'm guessing that they are totally different labels etc. Edited April 19, 200817 yr by 45cellar
April 19, 200817 yr No problem Mate. As you say the Information possibly Non-Existent. There are some on Popsike.com (STEREO & MONO), but I'm guessing that they are totally different labels etc. Its exactly the same cover (card with no gloss on either side unlike the recent re-issue) and the same track listing, the label is the bolder FANIA type in purple, with all the copyrite info in Venezualian of course. And then there is that "bell sound" stamp ! ...... oh and its a mono recording! I noticed the "Harvey Averne" lp with "Never learned to dance" on it has a black and silver FANIA label on the South American pressing - I wonder if there are any FANIA experts about ??
