You're referring to a particular post in the "tracked parcel" topic, aren't you? If you are, I can't see why that is too sarcastic. Maybe you're a bit too sensitive in that matter? We're all grown up adults here and should be able to stand to these posts, shouldn't we? But seriously, if you're annoyed by posts from another member, put them on "ignore".

??? What's so "pot and kettle" about making aware of a scammer account on Discogs?

https://www.discogs.com/de/sell/seller_feedback/Melissazavala

Discogs been flooded with scammer accounts in the recent months. These crooks had focused on the more expensive pop items. As more and more users became aware of them it seems they now moved to the collectible niche records.

ok, I stand corrected. easy fellas. at least the french EP is a genuine 60s release whereas the US MGM one is technically a reissue.

Rock and Pop counterfeits is a HUUUGE market. Read an article in a magazine some time ago where they managed to talk to both manufacturers and distributors of these counterfeits. Talking about millions of euros and 100s of 1000s of records. Went to a local record fair last sunday. Plenty of dealers that boxes and boxes of what was labelled "new reissues" where it was more than just obvious they were counterfeits.

Huh? It‘s a well documented reissue/bootleg. Nothing exciting about it in my opinion.

Just looked it up on Discogs. Says 1975. Makes sense. For whatever reason both demo and issue of that Thunderbird 45 fetch three figures there.

Fantastic news. "sing yeah" has been a firm favourite of mine ever since I heard it on a Rob Marriott tape back in the early 90s.

Maybe via publisher's acetate? I understand that was a common way for them to promote their songs.

Many thanks for explaining AI and ChatGPT in this context. Was thinking about doing something like this myself but struggled to find the right words (mind, english is not my first language). I think the most important feature about this AI is that it doesn't just return any information available on the internet 1:1. ChatGPT is not a search engine (even though search engines are also AI). It reads information, analyzes it and draws it conclusions. I use AI in my daily work. But only very basic AI's to detect clusters in big data. I find ChatGPT both fascinating and frightening.

Both sides of the Sheryl 45 were re-released on UK Beacon and german Polydor around 69/70.

And he missed another release of the "good version", german Metronome. Never take Manship as gospel.

You‘re absolutely right. Modern day press. Pretty obvious. Have to admit I never look closer at the label scan on Discogs. Should have done so.

Many thanks! here's just a YT vid for reference in case anyone's interested in hearing Betty's version. Very sparse compared to Ben's take. But yet fully produced so not a demo take. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vUwdvqrcQiU
