Tony Galla Original

[Guest chorleybloke]

Ey up everyone,

I have a copy of Southbound Freeway "Revelations" on black Swan issue 4272 but its actually Tony Galla "In Love" mis-pressed. The correctly pressed Tony Galla then came out on Swan 4275 in 3 different formats (yellow demo, white demo, black issue).

Question - is my copy the true original by virtue of the lower release number? And if so, you would think it would be worth more than #4275 yes? - but not according to the books (not selling anyway, just curious).

Incidentally if your see a copy of "Revelations" on Swan 4272 demo, forget it - its the correct version and shite.

Cheers

a record is only worth what some one will pay for it so... looking at it from a collectors point of view if you want Tony Galla on swan thats the one you would go for yes But the southbound freeway perfect for a DJ point of view its cheeper and doesnt matter if its got Tony Galla wrote on it it comes out the speakers the same and its also an original. On the rare side wouldn know witch one was rarer

There's a yellow issue

Always thought the yellow and blue label copies are the rarer.

Must have posted at the same time Pete. Thats the rarer IMO, yellow label, blue writing.

Yellow one seems to be the rarer allegedly .

But wasn't there a suggestion that the yellow one may have been a later re-press?

Are there any other Swan yellow demos?

Talk about great minds

Pete,have look at the matrix numbers in the deadwax of the`revelations`side it`s got the Tony Galla matrix S-4275-I scratched in,and on the other side has Southbound Freeway matrix S-4272-C.Absolutely `crazy shadows`mate.

As for rarity it really depends how many they pressed up before they relised they`d made a James Hunt of it and how many they disposed of.
