Selling some vinyl when I get back home saturday one record being Royal Five say it to my face on Tyler somebody mentioned that there is a reissue of this ,99.9% sure mine is not ,but as I havent it to hand just now what is the difference from the re-issue to original issue so I can check before putting on the sales forum

Think the originals are purple matte label on moulded over vinyl??

It should have a raised stamp under the label if its a real one

My record if I remember is quite thick vinyl comparing to standard thickness 45,s and really dark blue I am colour blind so this could be purple matte

thanks any chance of a label scan

Nice one Tim

The original definately as a raised stamp under the label which should be visible , the same stamp is on other east coast pressings the empires , dynamic three etc

the copies without the raised stamp are bootlegs .

Yep, your right like the others have mentioned, if there isnt the raised stam thet're boots.

Sorry about lack of colour, i put an arrow where raised lettering is. Hope that helps.

One sure way to get an original is the demo, this wasn't booted. Great tune any day of the week

another way to identify the pressing is by playing it. on the pressing, just a second or two before the recording starts you can hear the crackles and surface noise that was on the original record the pressing was dubbed from.

white demo is considerably rarer than the issue

Seen a white Demo for 80 on ebay about 8 mounths back, you will have to go along way of beating the 25 pence i payed for mine.

Well to be honest I've had mine some years & was found in the US thats why I wasnt familiar with the pricing of the WD & Stock copies.........but asked the question for those reading the thread, not lucky enough to have paid nothing for thier record collections .
