Hole Too Big
I think maybe cut a cardboard template of the existing hole,by scribing hole onto cardboard prior to cutting with craft knife, then drill hole to the exact centre , thick cardboard should do it ,

Was a copy in Mr Tees Kidderminster, but UK issue on Vocalion around £50. if any good- Blackbeat Magazine
If anyone interested, had a day sort out old mags etc and found 1 spare copy of New Blackbeat , soul magazine no.4 from June 83, and 8 copies of New Blackbeat no.8 from Feb 83 ,( I'm pretty sure this is a date misprint , no 4 in June and no 8 in Feb) me thinks no 8 possible Feb 84 . Anyway 9 copies for sale 1x Blackbeat no. 4 and 8 X Blackbeat no. 8 ( issue no 8 features 1983 readers poll , interesting ) £5 each Inc p+p , PM me if interested PayPal f+f etc if interested , all copies intact and almost 40 yrs old so maybe rusty staples etc, Mods if in wrong section please move to appropriate , cheers- Who Is This ?
I was thinking legally with royalties going to all those involved musically , but I see your point, inevitable I'm afraid eventually some scumbag always does- Who Is This ?
If it's so rare ,maybe a reissue a possibility in the future and it wouldn't be so difficult to say , a sell out , and it is damn good .- Bootleg reissue or Legitimate Reissue
For years I've wondered how is it possible that a bootleg " reissue" can possibly be more valuable or sought after ,than a Legitimate UK reissue , when in most cases it is the only legal and by far the better sounding format. Most UK releases old or new are legal on licence etc ,I know that not all are , but over the years it has got better ,yet still tonight on eBay George Kirby ,What Can I Do , up to £56. with a couple of days to go , on Cadet boot , and a few others that are far more reasonably priced similar , surely a legitimate UK reissue in most cases the only reissue is more collectable , yes I know box sets maybe not to everyone's taste , but most are broken up or Liberated as they say .- New 45 - Ray Williams & The Majortones - Girl Don't Leave Me - Eps009
