Tootsie Rollers
Well well, wasn't aware of that but then again I rarely look at ebay because of all the boots and carvers on there

Easy 600 Rod. Not aware of a boot, maybe a carver?

Is this really the state of our scene?
course I'm old enough, we have and have had a pretty OTT one in Chesterfield when it came to Northern Soul niters

A scene full of divs and johnny come lately's, how can they not know you mate? Probably done more venues than most! Newcomers to a venue were always viewed with suspicion once upon a time, usually cause they were thought to be the squad 🤣

'Cutting up the dancefloor: the glorious, dubious...'
It's nice to see soul and disco top of the charts but I disagree with the use of the original in whatever form without recompense to the original copyright holder.

You have some of the best people on the scene but we also have some of the worst. We have some of the friendliest but also some of the nastiest. The scene has always had every element of life. It has people you want to talk to and associate with, it has people you are wary of and people you want to avoid. It has more than its fair share of gossips, tittle tattlers, grasses and n'er do wells, thieves and whatever else folk in everyday life get up to. The scene of old always had an edge. You stood your ground and gave back what you took. If you experience unpleasantness go somewhere else, it will be their loss. Not everywhere is like the venue in the Op, there are some excellent venues with excellent people running them and attending them.

All the companies used recycled vinyl. When making the biscuits, all the off cuts, leftovers would be recycled. You can hear it in records from majors to minors when the oxygen gets in the mix.

when you recycle you get oxygen/air in the mix and that can be heard as noise on a recording even if it is mint condition. It all depends on how good the process is though.

I doubt a bootlegger has the tech, the know how or the inclination to do such a thing. The added cost would be quite large too, not just the recycling but the expense of having to buy 100s or 1000s of 45s to recycle.

Something that has been stored away in a box for 50 years will look different in colour to something that hasn't, even if well looked after.

Barbara McNair ‘BabyAGoGo’ instrumental?
Cheers. They are instrumentals of course but if they were a true instrumental I think we'd have a lot more going on, extra fills from the drummer etc rather than the laying down of a tightly scripted backing track. Think I read by 1964 the musicians and the artists were working seperately so yes probably 1963 was the beginning of the end for the full studio.

Barbara McNair ‘BabyAGoGo’ instrumental?
Who is the major compiler just to add some context to your answer. Isn’t 1964 when the step from recording as one in the studio began to come to an end. like Ken I wouldn’t class the backing track as a proper instrumental, just the same as the isolated vocal isn’t acapella

Royal esquires ???
Even if they are they only last so long before new ones need making. But taking all assumptions into account, you have to assume they also have old stock of labels which i doubt very much.
-
Royal esquires ???
They never will either. Everything is different, paper, inks, vinyl, printing methods etc etc….. They might get close but something will give it away. If they are unopened stock they will look like new just like when the lot from the owners estate was found. Everyone was saying all the releases were fake then. Every chance they sat on a box or two waiting for the price to rise.

Label Mistakes the factory didn't spot
Not sure, there are conflicting accounts, some say not and performed as Deliliah Moore after a break and marrying Gerald Moore. She was however in the Triumphs, not seem much to suggest Delores was the one in the Triumphs.
-
Label Mistakes the factory didn't spot
is it a mistake or a rebranding attempt that failed? After all they pressed it twice with different labels, plus the different presses with the Admirations credit? labels reversed as well, one big mess up with that press
