purist Posted September 28, 2009 Posted September 28, 2009 I've heard this before from a friend that I trust, this over labelling from Blue Rock to Philips, but my doubt came from the fact that Philips copies are on vinyl, Blue Rock pressings are styrene. Does anyone out there own a Philips label copy on styrene ? Because I buy my records to play regularly, and on all manner of equipment over the last 25 years I'm glad to report that my Philips copy still plays perfectly. Would that be the case if I'd bought a Blue Rock copy? ( having tried to collect the B. Rock label years ago I gave up as the sound deteriorated so quickly on some of my faves, but strangely some have lasted well, were we blaming the material when it was down to individual faults at other stages of production, mastering/chemical construction/ etc ?)

Does anyone out there own a Philips label copy on styrene ? I don't think I've ever seen a Philips issue of this that was pressed on vinyl. Do you perhaps have a have a label scan of your copy that you could post up? Both of these are on styrene for example:

Both of these are on styrene for example: Now you've got me thinking, 'cause from memory I'm sure my issue looks a lot like these. Have I made a huge mistake all these years ? Probably. I can't get at my copy easily until later, so I'll check then, but pretty sure now I've looked at these pics that I've been talking from the wrong end. I'd blame the medication, only that would be a poor excuse. are philips demo's vinyl? has anyone got/seen a wdj philips Big Frank ? or come to that a white demo Blue Rock ( it was trying to collect Blue Rock that gave me a styrene phobia, and the record in particular being Johnny Moore Without Your Love, think I bought about 4 different copies that all looked okay, and all hissed like a snake. I know its only a cheapie, but that shouldn't come in to it. I think it took me 3 attempts to get a Deletts that was a half decent player - and every one I got had a ring drawn around the title in (red?) felt pen. all were wdj's btw
