The obvious thing is that the W/D says 'Audition Record' and the coloured demo says 'Demonstration Record' from memory. Other than that, no difference at all except in the price, the W/D is a lot rarer than the coloured one, and commands a much higher price. Both of the demos are rarer than an issue.

Thanks for your reply.

The coloured one is the same format as the white one.(it is on the cover of your book lol) which is the one I have. Just not seen the white one before.

Many thanks,

Funnily enough, the photo on the book cover was provided by Bee Cool, because I've got a white one

have you ever read your own book dave, because the coloured on on the cover clearly says audition record

And no matter what colour or label it comes on it won't sound as good as the Metro's lp only version

I am happy to like both

O'Jays has better harmonies whereas Metro's is a better dancer.

So it does. In my defence, I did say "from memory".

there doesn't seem to be any logic to these demos, ive had a coloured demo on vinyl & a white one on styrene in the past, i also found that the stock copy on vinyl was slightly longer than the styrene stock copy, albeit by about a second,

That's always a matter of opinion, but the Metros backing sounds a little lightwieght, and strange to me. Heard both over big sound systems, and the Metros version doesn't compare.
