I was just looking at what 'Jealous Lover' has gone for on Popsike and noticed that one listing has the record on purple Valerie and mentions that this is the first press, the second being blue.

Is this correct and the blue is actually a second pressing (how much later?) or are there just two different label colors that appeared at the same time? Would there be a price difference between them?

Any help much appreciated!

Cheers,

JM

Hi Joel

this looks like a listing from Coach Jim Hunt in New Jersey (no photos, no paypal, but great records in fantastic condition).

A HarmBall in his parlance is a harmony ballad.

Both issued at the same time,the sound quality on the purple ones is slightly inferior to my ears

Thanks for your replies....

In that case i'm already harmballed up with a blue copy....fantastic record.....backing vocals remind me of bits of 'Girl From A Country Town'.....
