I have a question about this record. The UK Atlantic issue has been mastered REALLY LOUD. Are the Jotis copies like that?

Simon, Not sure mate all we could do is compare them, it's a very big sounding record anyway but would be good to know if they tweeked the volume in the UK.

No Simon, they're not - the UK issues are loud to the point of distortion though, aren't they? At first I thought it was just my copy and I still wonder if I should ever have got rid of my Jotis demo!

Have to say- I like the fact that the UK 45 is that loud ! It adds to the excitement of the record. As you say though Hippo, borderline distorted. For some reason I really like this 45 on UK-some of them are special to me somehow. I want Vala Regan "Fireman" on UK. A friend who's been an engineer since the early 70's knew the guys who mastered the Atlantic Uk 45's. The black Atlantic's via Decca (is that right ??) have a better sound generally. It was a different guy at Polydor for the red ones apparently. "Baby Cakes" seems to be unique in that over the top sound. Isn't there a Maxine Brown version on CD as well?

P.S. The Dells "Your Song" on UK 12" is another very loud record!

Oh my god I'm rambling....
