Hi all, recent car boot finds included Capreez "How to make a sad man glad" on Sound (red label). I'm guessing it's a boot, but am not sure. Can anyone tell me how to tell the boot from an original?

TIA

Easy one - bootleg is styrene, original is vinyl

Cheers Pete. Styrene and a boot (as suspected).

White DJ copy is the best way to own this one

Cheers

I had both and seem to recall the demo being on thinner vinyl than the issue?

I've not got it anymore but I'm sure the issue I had, had got a raised centre when viewed from the edge, as though the vinyl was twice as thick under the label as where the grooves were.

You're right about the demo Tony - pretty thin vinyl

Cheers
