Cunnie Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Better for who? What if you've got some obscure one shot record on a one shot label, nobody knows who owns it, so you're going to cut off your nose to spite your face and not own a copy in any format? Just so's you can sleep soundly at night? Jesus, 100 people got shot in Norway at the weekend, that sort of thing is important, not this trivial rubbish. You own whatever format you choose Pete & I'll try my best to own stuff legally, don't think either of us are going to lose much sleep. Don't really see the relevance of the connection to the tragic events in Norway though. Also if you think the topic is so trivial why keep posting on it?
Cunnie Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 How does he play that on his turntable? Play it on one of those new fangled cd players. Might also have a cd player in the new car he just bought with the £3000 he saved

Smudger Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 (edited) I would have thought some people actually collect pressings (boots) I bet some are hard to find,what is the most valuable pressing(not 2nd issue)?? when is a british issue a pressing? Edited July 24, 2011 by smudger
Guest Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 been to a car booty today and bought o c smith - hickory hollows tramp for 50 english pence, mint condition in cbs sleeve, i`m getting wet around the tip

Don't really see the relevance of the connection to the tragic events in Norway though. Also if you think the topic is so trivial why keep posting on it? Because it's a forum and your answers need replying to. Some of the comments would make any normal person stare in disbelief at some of the self-righteousness. And as for recommending a cd on which we have no idea whether royalties were paid or not...
boba Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 Here you go. As far as I know these are legal, bonus of all the other tracks too. https://www.northerns...roducts_id=3184 PS, prefer When I'm With My Baby on t'other side you actually think the tracks on this CD were licensed? I think you picked a bad example.
Cunnie Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 And as for recommending a cd on which we have no idea whether royalties were paid or not... I did say as far as I know it's legal. Perhaps you could pm the member. Past caring myself & bored of trying to knock nails into sawdust so going for a cuppa (real Yorkshire tea & none of that Aldi rubbish ).
Hill868 Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I think that most people who have a number of bootlegs have aquired them because they would never have the cash to purchase an original, or even have the inclination to track one down, they just wanted the 45 on vinyl to play. I probably have some 30 odd boots from the 70's, such as George Blackwell, Salvadors, etc, but didn't actually buy any when they first appeared, just got given them / acquired them over the years, with no intention of ever denying the artists any sort of royalties. I wonder how many of the rare items that have been supposedly legally reissued over the last few years have led to the original artists receiving any payments or royalties, perhaps with the exception of some of the Kent things ?!

Geeselad Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I'd say a fair portion are bought by guys either djing @ or asspiring to play at soul and motown night/ disco's in pubs or function rooms.

Guest Bearsy Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 I have no idea why people buy bootlegs or carvers. If I want to listen to music at home I listen to CDs or digitally, if I have to DJ (rarely) I play originals. The only vinyl I listen to at home is that I can't get on CD, Youtube or elsewhere, which is pretty uncommon thesedays and i'd say everything that has been booted is available elsewhere because it's always the common stuff. I have bought carvers and boots many years ago, but for the life of me I can't think why I bothered, i've never played them at home and i've never played them out and most of the originals I play are cheaper than boots anyway, so it's wasting valuable money for originals when buying boots. Sorry Bearsy, can't help with the question. same as Matt and in a way you have answered the question
Mike Posted July 24, 2011 Posted July 24, 2011 bearsy if answered then ask can you close this thread think overall subject been done to death last few days thanks mike
