Tanktop Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Can anyone help!!!! Ive just purchased a copy of lou johnson, the panic is on/what am i crying for on a yellow bigtop demo db105. As far as i know this was never issued or was it? The record definately looks like the real deal to me & would appreciate some feedback guys, cheers.
Pete S Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Must be a recent reissue, wasn't released in the 60's
Tanktop Posted October 13, 2011 Author Posted October 13, 2011 The record looks & the paper feels right for being a 60s release, you can usually tell if its a reissue or boot. Ive been buying northern for over 30yrs & this one has me stumped. I know this was never released mainstream in the 60s But could it be a slipup by bigtop records????

Godzilla Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Just googled and found this obvious boot. Is this like yours?

Pete S Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Just googled and found this obvious boot. Is this like yours? Looks nothing like a proper Big Top release - typeface totally wrong, promotional copy in the wrong place - looks like something I'd knock up on the computer but make a better job of
Tanktop Posted October 13, 2011 Author Posted October 13, 2011 Think i need stronger glasses, problem solved. Thanx guys.

Pete S Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Think i need stronger glasses, problem solved. Thanx guys. Having said that - this is the first one of these I've seen, wonder where it came from
Theothertosspot Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Phew!!!!, glad that's sorted, I was worried for a while, thought the few Big Top records I have were boots TOTP
Mark Bicknell Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 I think you will find that the only legit release of this is on Ace/Kent's stunning Lou Johnson CD Ady compiled a couple of years ago, certainly a track which Kent could put out on it's Select logo. Mark Bicknell.

Mark Bicknell. Never been played at OVO venues then ?
Mark Bicknell Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Never been played at OVO venues then ? Ady played it first I would think from an acetate/studio dub at the 100 Club way back. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

boba Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Ady played it first I would think from an acetate/studio dub at the 100 Club way back. Regards - Mark Bicknell. that isn't vinyl so it isn't acceptable for ovo venues
Mark Bicknell Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 that isn't vinyl so it isn't acceptable for ovo venues Not sure you will have to ask Ady if he played it at any of those venues.
Theothertosspot Posted October 13, 2011 Posted October 13, 2011 Off at a tangent here, but recently heard Sammy Ambrose - Dreamsville played out, possibly the first time I've heard it in 15 years (only seen it on UK Stateside too) but there now appears to be a few on the US musicor release/demo turning up. Have a few been located/found? TOTP
