Simon T Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 (edited) Does anyone know if this is a boot? It's on vinyl, the printing is a bit feint and the number 7 is not multi-coloured, so I am assuming it is. However, it a very good quality recording, so I was wondering if it was legally reissued?

Gasher Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 (edited) as far as i know the reissue was on sound stage 7..this looks kosha to me. but they what the f*** do i know. this one aint multi coloured either its like faded grey https://cgi.ebay.com/Ann-Sexton-Northern-So...1QQcmdZViewItem had a discussion with Madship a couple of days ago aboot label slight differences in colours etc.he tells me it was not uncommon for records to have labels with slight variations in the colour of fonts due to the printers like east coast and west coast pressings they also had this with labels. I have 2 white demos of one record with two different font styles . slightly different typeset..this is not uncommon.. sometimes the printer ran out of ink believe it or not and they would just use what ever they had left.Also it cost more to do more than 2 colours on a label.and some labels genuinely missed certain parts of the printing process for one reason or another.Money/time f*** up on the printers behalf etc,etc and if they did two runs the second run setup would be cheaper if they only used the two colours..multi coloured labels 3 or more colours cost a fortune more to print up almost 3 times the cost of a 2 colour. so after all that waffle..I still dont know..haha the gasher Edited October 23, 2005 by The Gasher

Soul Shrews Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Ten quid seems cheap for a pair of boots these days Seriously this is an original Reissues are gold/black/red ala Valentinos 'Breakaway' Peace 'n' love Paul Woosnam
Soul Shrews Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Think Impel is the local issue pre seventy seven and would cost more than a good pair of boots these days
Soul Shrews Posted October 23, 2005 Posted October 23, 2005 Didnt the re issue go for daft money recently on blag bay?
Gasher Posted October 24, 2005 Posted October 24, 2005 yep ..sure it went for $80 ..or summfink like that.. the gasher
Guest Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 just recieved a yellow copy in the post and i think very slightly near the beginning has slight pitch wobble and at the fade out out the end definite slow down pitch wobble momentarily. does it do this on the real issue or is it a fake/boot? any help greatly appreciated is there any way you can tell for definite (what writing is in the run out) cheers mick
Trev Thomas Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 multi coloured label.......reissue yellow label......original
Guest Posted October 4, 2008 Posted October 4, 2008 ive never had a record with pitch wobble would a genuine yellow issue have this from the pressing plant?
Guest Noggin Posted May 26, 2015 Posted May 26, 2015 just recieved a yellow copy in the post and i think very slightly near the beginning has slight pitch wobble and at the fade out out the end definite slow down pitch wobble momentarily. does it do this on the real issue or is it a fake/boot? any help greatly appreciated is there any way you can tell for definite (what writing is in the run out) cheers mick I've just bought a yellow label issue and it is exactly the same. Sounds like the record is spinning too slowly in a couple of places (especially the fade out) no problem with other records so not the turntable. Anybody able to shed any light on why? Run out is hard to read but looks like 801-SS scratched in at slightly past 12 oclock.
Podge Posted May 27, 2015 Posted May 27, 2015 What does the multi coloured re issue fetch these days ?
neckender Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Does anyone know if this is a boot? It's on vinyl, the printing is a bit feint and the number 7 is not multi-coloured, so I am assuming it is. However, it a very good quality recording, so I was wondering if it was legally reissued? There was a look-a-like bootleg on the yellow seventy 7 label. This particular bootleg has a slightly wider dead wax and has 77-104-B (in large typeface) and ss-108 (in small typeface) It also has a very small matrix. The original has only the ss-108 (small typeface) and the matrix in the deadwax. Also the music publisher is different; original has 'three cheers music, ascap' whereas the bootleg has 'cape ann music, inc' And finally, the typeface on the label looks faded too. 2
Patto Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 Mark Mine is identical to a the press you described in a post a couple of years ago Details are A-side: small SS-107 with a small matrix. Run-out groove is 8mm. B-side: small SS-108 with small matrix. This side has a larger run-out groove at 12mm. The vinly edge has that square finish. The white dj copies also follow this format This was thought to be an original press but mine is a cape music issue,see scan.Are we saying that ths one is the boot

Cheers Tony i have had mine since the 90s always considered it original, but Mark mentions that the originals have three cheers music so thats left me confused

Swifty Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 The one posted in refo-soul is also a cape ann. Just had google ( as you do ) and most seem to be Cape Ann I'm intrigued now 1
Garethx Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 The 'Three Cheers Music' yellow label copy has a small scratched-in device or logo a couple of inches to the right of the matrix number. It's a small, faint 'W' over an 'M' with an 'E' next to it. Do the Cape Ann Music copies also have this?
Peter99 Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 I'm intrigued now You mean muddled! And you've not even finished your first bottle of Rioja!

Popular Post John Benson Posted May 29, 2015 Popular Post Posted May 29, 2015 This is the first time I've been aware of two different yellow copies, but I'm not convinced either are boots. Below is a scan I found of the 'Three Cheers' 45 But, I have a yellow copy, that I got back in around 1977 / 78, shortly after the red & orange 77 copies showed up. That is a 'Cape Ann Music' release also, which makes it a bit early to suggest it was booted at that time when the red & orange copies were available. I noticed that the red & orange copies also state 'Three cheers' on them, whereas the Impel copy is 'Active Music' Maybe it's just a case of different pressing plants with slightly different publishing info? It's not uncommon for this kind of thing to happen. 5
John Benson Posted May 29, 2015 Posted May 29, 2015 No Gareth, no markings like you describe, other than the 77-104 and SS 108 there is the number 320 and some small squiggle after that - but it doesn't really look like you say - unless you maybe read it under a magnifying glass?

John I wouldn't expect that mark to be on that copy. As Butch pointed out above the run-out is thicker on your copy which suggests different mastering. I know John Richbourg companies had a history of reissuing stuff periodically for different markets—the Sound pressings of Little Richie etc. spring to mind—so calling the 'Cape Ann' copies outright bootlegs without specific proof is difficult. Cape Ann was one of Richbourg's publishing companies and is on dozens of records across his labels. Having said all that if I was buying copies at today's prices I'd steer clear of the 'Cape Ann' ones. The white demo on 77 has the markings I describe above. 1
Guest Noggin Posted May 30, 2015 Posted May 30, 2015 My Three Cheers copy has those markings at about 9 oclock, directly to the left of Three Cheers, on the YBGTL side, and at about 10 oclock on the YLMD side. Definitely need a magnifying glass to read them though. Just a bit miffed at the sound wobble in a couple of places.
Guest Noggin Posted June 9, 2015 Posted June 9, 2015 (edited) I've just bought a yellow label issue and it is exactly the same. Sounds like the record is spinning too slowly in a couple of places (especially the fade out) no problem with other records so not the turntable. Anybody able to shed any light on why? Run out is hard to read but looks like 801-SS scratched in at slightly past 12 oclock.I have just listened to YBGTL on Spotify and the wobble is there, in the fade out, where she sings "took to long to come home"this is from the compilation album called Said I had a vision. Songs and labels of David Lee. So, is the wobble a mistake from the original recording or pressing and is it on every copy of the record? Anyone able to clarify this? Edited June 9, 2015 by Noggin
Guest Gogs Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Just checked JM's 5TH & 6th guides, no mention off a boot on the yellow Seventy 7 issue. I also have the "three cheers" label version that i know that i bought as an original from a reputable dealer (but can't now remember who it was (think i'm getting old)), possibly just different pressing plants (not an abnormal occurrence).
spot Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 Yeah it did ..nice orange label with red type never see it for sale though..or am i missing something. have a scan of it though..aboot as close as I get ..the gasherMr Manships sold 2 in last 12 months, both about £600 if I remember, plain yellow is the 2nd issue, if Impel is the first, Multi coloured came next, it was reissued not booted.Spot.
Rich B Posted June 12, 2015 Posted June 12, 2015 For what it's worth my Impel copy was orange with black lettering. Also it says 'Masters of Soul' instead of 'Soul Masters' if I remember correctly.
