Yes thanks Kev, Sebastian had a good trawl

Because we found the master tapes after having used acetate dubs on the Nancy Wilcoxes first time around and we wanted such a great recording to be heard in best possible quality

Yes please. Thanks

You forgot Yvonne Baker. It's explained in the notes

Thanks Sebastian, I need a good scan too please. Ta Ady

Actually, I could do with an MP3 or similar of his You've Got Me In The Palm Of Your Hands, the Sound Stage Seven version.

I need to hear an MP3 or similar of the flip, can anyone do a favour please? Ta Ady

Anyone got an Ex one they could loan? CDs in return. ta Ady

I agree; let's watch someone prove us wrong !

I had 2 x 169 and a 149 and all played "ride" so the 149 "kiss" is quite hard to find I think. my 149 was 50129 1C as were both my 169s. I don't think anyone's had a 169 "kiss" in their mits have they?

Thanks Mike, fab shot and that's Gary Lovett of Gary & Gary next to him

Yes the Jamo eventually came out on vinyl on the second Chess box of 7s with the full story about it. I didn't notice Some Kind Of Wonderful, probably stereo too

Yes it's a whole different approach, I call that one the jazz version

Ha, I thought so, knowing you. Great stuff, there IS an alt on 45 and it is substantially different vocal and lyrics as commented upon. 149A 50129-1E (pressed) -ride 149 = 50129-1A -kiss 169 = 50129 - 1D -ride My 169 was ride but looked more like 1c i'll check again All we need now is a 169 kiss but that may not exist.

Someone back up there thought that 169 had both versions but it could be YouTube playing tricks.

Could be, we await an official sighting Steve, did you play your 45s or YouTubes? If the former can you give us the markings on the kiss version please? Ta Ady

Could be, I've only heard the strings version, anyone got a vinyl without?

I don't think so just tape and vinyl versions of Love, Friends. Tears is the same tape but longer

Yes, we corrected that by putting the dubbed single out later, it's an underdub on the first CD without strings but better in other aspects. The tape of the flip is different too, longer on tape.

Ooh that hurts!-Spot on, how did I miss that. At least it makes the anniversary single even more desirale. I'll put it on my Mia Culpa list of tracks to re-present. Thanks

That's the one that got me the most; I couldn't believe they were the same until I compared them

I listed my markings for 169 that was ride and Gogs has wand (scratched) 149A 50129-1E (presse) for his that is ride. We now need details for any versions of kiss (apologies if there are any above, I'm getting confused-again)

I would estimate 20 tracks are alt versions by mistake. Many more are intentionally alt and should be described as such somewhere. The first released date tells you a lot. If it's the date of the original single or LP then it should be exactly that. If it's the release date of the CD then we know its an alternate.

Others don't agree, those CDs were a minefield of alt versions, several unknown to me!

Anyone got a sound file if For All Time for me yet?
