  1. I disagree on several points , I much prefer vinyl to other formats , rational or not and for me i would prefer a vinyl copy to a copy burnt onto cd or on an i pod . if you dont , then thats your choice . also, yes i sit firmly in the in between place and feel no need what soever to justify it . Not too sure about the pretending aspect here , i,m not pretending to own an original, wheres the pretence? plenty more to say but my energy for this particular topic has run out, also , ive been overtaken by an irrational urge to give my vinyl copy of the mello souls a quick spin .
  2. What about if the option was between say owning Jimmy mack on goldmine or soul galore or having a look alike palmer stuck on label copy for about the same price ? personally i would chose the latter ( realistically i,m not going to pay several hundred pounds for an original, much as i would love one) quite happy to have my integrity as a " record collector "brought into question , however for me , i,m primarilly in it for the music and always have been and i enjoy it better in the vinyl format . i pick up originals , boots , carvers, uk , us ,first issues second issues, legitimate releases , emidiscs etc.. i can appreciate the magic of owning an original , also i can enjoy putting a disc on the turntable that i know is a boot and i know thats the only way i could own a vinyl copy . This topic re manifests itself daily on soul source , it always surprises me the depth of vitriol summoned up in some people when this issue is raised , my view is , you know of all the problems, threats.dangers and injustices in the world , a few stuck on labels dont really come on the radar(IMHO) . The guy ( and i dont know him ) clearly states they are not original . btw whoever bought that natural four had their hat nailed on big time .
