And stop referring to it as a "re-issue" ... it's a counterfeit , bootleg , fake ...

How this is supposed to fool anyone I'm not sure ... https://www.ebay.com/itm/LARRY-CLINTON-SHES-WANTED-RARE-NORTHERN-SOUL-ACETATE-HOLY-GRAIL-1-SIDED-VIRTUE-/391677554497?hash=item5b31cd2f41%3Ag%3AxxcAAOSwjDZYenqL

Gotta be the awesome tinkling at the start of "You had me fooled" for me ... And the fact that it continues all through the song is no bad thing ...

Yeah right ... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252726355838

It's Barbara Mercer I believe ... It was on a Golden World tape.

The Italian movie thing might come via the 'other' Shawn Robinson , the Hollywood stuntman who died in '15 ...

I would assume that the latest trawl through the Charity shops has not yet been completed , there are afterall about a hundred in every tiny little town these days , unlike the few and far between that existed last time the subject was broached ...

Wow , has there ever been a less soulful record ever recorded ...

Got loads here including Carla , all handed to me halfway down the stairs on the anniversary nights and all staying firmly in my box ...

Last one through made £112.00 , has gone for £170.00 in the past.

Especially as it was sold in October '16 for £133.00 ... leastways it's the same photo ...

No , the 'box' design was in use from May 1967 (HL10135) through to 1979 (HL10577).

You can still get the whole set ... https://www.discogs.com/sell/item/314090063

... ignore , repeating myself ...

The "Search" box at the top of the page is a doorway to reams of information here on Soul Source , a quick play leads to this for starters ...

True , but if you look at 45cellar's pictures above the registration is different on all of them , beit the Bird or the Styvesant lettering at the bottom ... ?

A point that was demonstrated earlier in the thread with the direct side by side comparison between the boot and original labels ...

Well that could have something to do with the fact that none of the 45's you posted were the bootlegged Roddie Joy which is the 45 in question ...

I know , I did half of the digging and answering here and elsewhere ... but thought it would be a good idea to post it here where it will be visible for anyone else to see for future reference ...

And the bootleg is even easier to spot in a side by side comparison that highlights the poor reproduction/printing on the bootleg label ...

Counterfeit copy using the original demo label design ... nearly. The repro label is incorrectly reproduced with no "sound hole" in the guitar that the Red Bird is playing , unlike every other Red Bird 45 out there. Original demos and issues both in Styrene , whereas the repro is pressesd on Vinyl. Originals with Delta # 57319 and a large raised 'X' in the runout ( large 'X' from the Shelley Products Ltd plant in Huntingdon station N.Y. that pressed up Red Birds 45's. Repros with "AR - 44650 - A" in the run-out , a number that in no way corresponds to the 1965 release.

Not me ... there's only one "Butch" ...

One 10" Motown acetate in Butch's safe hands , and an 'white label' bootleg done in the 80's.

There's some great stuff on this present list , I'm wondering where the "Hamilton Movement" will top out ... ?
