George Blackwell - orig/boot?
First boot is vinyl and a very good look alike but has PB in the run off. Second boot is styrene (also has PB in run off). Third boot is yellow and on vinyl. I think there is a 4th, also yellow, at the wrong speed.

Ruby On Gold Token
Yeah basically I was playing a copy and I thought it sounded different, so I had a proper listen and it was more like a remix, the strings were much further up in the mix and it was a slightly different vocal. Actually nobody believed me to start with but if you play the two together you can hear the differences.

Acetates
Sorry Dave no offence meant, just didn't do it for me thats all. Billy Shields is supposedly a pseudonym for Tony Orlando!

I downloaded the soundtrack after you first mentioned it the other day, it was horrible. Then again, probably not what I was expecting

Easy listening time...this is a version of the Billy Shields track isn't it? And at one point he sings "you were a girl when I needed a boy". Awful.

Listen to the bass guitar on the Ty Karim track, absolutely brilliant. p.s. did this come out on that bootleg with You Really Made It Good on the other side?

Was It Good For You?
Agree with you. We lost a lot of friends this year. I still go past Crispie's house every day and can't believe he's not sitting inside. Dee's Mum gets worse every day with alzheimers, her dads got cancer, looks like my Mums seriously ill, the f*cking dog died and the Wolves are still rubbish. But hey, at least I've got little Sam
