6 By 6 Earl Van Dyke Oddball Copy ?

[Kegsy]

I have a U.S. Soul purple swirl copy that has 6 by 6 listed on both sides,

I thought it must be mis-labelled.

But it actually plays 6 by 6 on both sides !!!.

Odd one or what ?

Just the other day I got out lilac / purple swirl design of, These things will keep me loving you...Velvelettes,

Thought this was mis-labeled so went to identify A side, both sides play same track, other copy I have has,

Since you've been loving me, B side,

Pressed on purpose ?? or monday morning / friday afternoon shift at pressing plant ?

Anybody else's oddballs on Soul / swirl ?

Tonya,Kegsy,

No not mis-pressed. Some kinda demo for radio play. Found a lot of these once at a radio station in Georgia. Actually thinking about it I remember Tamla and Soul copies but a bit hazy whether I found any on Vip,Motown. Gordy maybe.

I sold nearly all but I still have Frances Nero with "Keep on loving me" both sides on purple swirl.

Got an issue of the Originals Good Night Irene on the swirl label with Red Vinyl.

I've seen loads of different Motown labels on demos with coloured vinyl, but this is the first issue I've ever seen.
