My copy on Yellow/Red is unplayable. I used to play the Green copy out and about in the seventies. Nobody ever said it was different in any way to listen to. They certainly Danced to it, anyway, which was the main objective at the time. "Shop At Tesco's" used to get shouted when it was played. As far as I'm aware, It was just re-issued on a later number and James Lewis had by that time become the Named lead - Just Like Diana Ross & the Supremes etc.

Hi Ken I must admit that I can't understand why there hasn't been more input on this. You are right, it's not a lot to ask. We should share knowledge, because as I say we are all still learning

Hi All Just a point, not all long standing collectors are well known, and they still have 1000's of Rare Records. Just because that person isn't a "Big Gun" or known, they have still aquired knowledge over the years and are sharing what they know with you. I stand by my copy with the Green Label, on Styrene with the Scratched in Matrix. . You mention Joe Hicks - Don't It Make You Feel Funky - AGC Here is an Original; It is on Vinyl Delta 70422-X I bought It around the same time I will try to help anyone when I can with any information when I am certain is correct. We are all still learning, and gaining fresh information on these records as we collect, AND we can all be wrong from time to time as there are surprises out there. Any time I can help with Information, I will

I think that you will find that Information is not 100% correct, even thought it says it in the book. I'm happy with my copy Check this out and you'll see what I mean https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/d/73112/CASE+OF+TYME I hope you find a copy All the best

I'm Still collecting, I'm afraid - I have had this copy since the 1970's I know that there are plenty of Boots, but I thought there were still a few originals about I do have the Yellow & Red copy which I got after the Green copy, however it wasn't from the same reliable source. I bought the Yellow & Red for the Label Information as it is unplayable but I was assured that the Yellow & Red was the second time out for this, which is something that I can't 100% confirm

Hi All This is the 100% original Styrene copy with Green Stick On Label and Scratched ZTSC Matrix I hope this helps

I am not sure what CURRENT price is. MANSHIP'S U.S.A. 3rd Edition - Doesn't specify DEMO/Stock & has Crazy Baby at £150 with Johnny Mae on Atco at £100

Hi Paul Although I can't help with Johnny Mae Matthews I have the Original - Crazy Baby - DEMO & Stock Copy Deadwax Matrix Details FOLLOW Scratched on DEMO at 8 O'Clock = "W" at 6 O'Clock = "65C - 9290 - 11" at 3 O'Clock = "LW AT" Scratched on Stock Copy at 8 O'Clock = "W" at 6 O'Clock = "65C - 9290 - 1" "@" at 3 O'Clock = "LW AT" The @ is only on my Stock Copy "The Strange Turnip Mark" that you describe The Scratched Markings are exactlly the same other than the stamp and the extra 1 Both are Vinyl with Matt Labels and are Definitely Original I hope this helps

I can't help with that one I'm afraid, here are both Videos Together Though.

Look for the code after the = In this case DSjVJaxvtQ0 Type [ tube]DSjVJaxvtQ0[/tube ] and you get Remember DON'T HAVE SPACES IN THE SQUARED BACKETS [] I PUT THEM IN TO SHOW YOU THE CODE

Hi Tone Thanks for that, It's shed a new light on the collection - Checking through as we speak. It must have been a Logistical Nightmare for record companies at the time, all requiring time at the the various pressing plants. Strangly I notice Motown didn't use ZTSC much, apart from some of the Earlier releases Ric-Tic, Golden World etc appear to have had first call.

I bought the Album, loved it, and think the Video is Extremely well put together - Magic

Well worth a look, OSLO

Hi Dave, Hi TONE There is a Mixture of Matrix Marks on the 2 Coloured DEMO's I've got, both are Styrene, notice RCA STAMPED Matrix as well as Monarch? The only other Styrene Motown I'm aware of are ZTSC Matrix THE TEMPTATIONS - Don't Look Back - Scratched"Delta 58867" Stamped Monarch Matrix Scratched "W-LI-V-140314" Stamped "S K 4 M -2648-1-D" THE TEMPTATIONS - My Baby - Scratched "Delta 58868" Stamped Monarch Matrix Scratched "WIV-153308" Stamped "S K 4 M -2647-1-D" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- THE TEMPTATIONS - The Way You Do The Things You Do - Scratched "DM-W-067219" Monarch Matrix "Delta 51064" THE TEMPTATIONS - Just Let Me Know - Stamped P K 4 M - - 8018 - 8 - 1 Monarch Matrix Scratched "DMB-064226" "Delta 51063" ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Out of Interest, by chance I've just pulled a White DEMO "Delta 71382" Styrene with a Similar Stamped RCA /Monarch Mixed Matrix out of it's Sleeve. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Would I be right to assume West Coast DEMO It certainly makes things a little clearer if the Monarchs are the West Coast. As a few Stock copies in my collection are Styrene Monarch -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have the Daltom Boys on a White DEMO, the only ones I've ever seen are White. I would suspect that It's Extremely Rare - What is on the B' Side? I have seen R Dean Taylor - Ghost In My House - On a Coloured V.I.P. DEMO on ebay, can't remember what It went for.

Fantastic Video - Love that Record - Thanks
