Carol Jones - Don't Destroy Me....booted?

Posted January 5, 200916 yr

Was hoping someone could offer some info please?

Was this booted?

I'm looking to buy one but have come across two different labels.

Both are on MUTT with green labels, but have different numbers, and the MUTT fonts differ.

The first one i saw, (22421, and 22422 as the B-side) also has two thin black lines going through the middle of the record about an inch apart.

The second one M27320 is much plainer in style.

Are these both ligitimate issues? If so, which came first and is there any difference in sound?

Or, is one a boot?

All help welcome

Cheers, Arron

They are different recordings, both are original.

Doesn't one have strings and the other horns? Or something like that?

Great Tune, double sider as i remember i think Jumpin Joan was the first one i heard play Problem Child..and little Stevie aka Steve Cato introduced me to 'Don't destroy me' and it blew me socks off, haunting violins and her yearning and pleading voice just pulls at the heart strings... the one i have is the one without the lines on label..

Good 45, they were trying for a hit on Miss Jones so bad that they recorded & released the 45 3 times!! You want either of the 2 versions with the better drum sound. One is definitely weaker.
