Pete S Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 I know this was recorded in 75 and pressed in the late 90's but I can't find many traces of copies for sale, none on popsike, so my inevitable question, how much?? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Geeselad Posted November 15, 2011 Share Posted November 15, 2011 (edited) Les hare had one last year for 25, they never seemed to be around in vast quanitiies at the time, wonder how many were pressed? wasnt the pressing something to do with levine?

Levine did them. Few 100s maybe. Fantastic track that sadly suffers from the "Ian Levine" stigma. I recall the flip being a rather dull IL drum computer instrumental? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ernie Andrews Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 According to Ian L only 200 were pressed! That makes it pretty rare in the scheme of things! Wouldnt mind the original Pye acetate! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Chalky Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 I was told (by Levine I think) 40 were pressed so anything between 3 and a few hundred depending on who you believe.... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Dave Pinch Posted November 22, 2011 Share Posted November 22, 2011 either way even this chi city thingummy never shows up for sale dave Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Asked Ian yesterday and he said Exactly 100. I swear. Then Damont broke the plates so there could never be any more. Ralph Tee had them done and there were only ever exactly 100 copies. Not one more. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ernie Andrews Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 so therefore it is bloody rare in the scheme of things! Rarer than most of the bloody Shrine records! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Wiggyflat Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Got mine from Kev Roberts....paid about £25 I think last year.Never know he might have a box of them Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ernie Andrews Posted November 25, 2011 Share Posted November 25, 2011 Doubt it if their is only a hundred! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ncfc Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Nigel Parker must of had an acetate as he was playing it late 80s.Could be the 3rd copy Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Pete S Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 Doubt it if their is only a hundred! So the guy who made them tells me there is only a hundred but you don't believe me or him. What else can I do apart from torture him and get a written confession in his own blood? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Ernie Andrews Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 (edited) No Pete Youve misunderstood - Most copies (Of the hundred count) are probably in peoples collections therefore it would be pretty strange if Kev Roberts had a box of them! Thats what I meant! I now see why youve replied - If I had quoted Wiggyflat then you wouldnt have replied! I am in agreement with you & as I said in the scheme of things its therefore pretty rare! You never know it might become as popular as the Little Anthony and I can sell it for an inflated price (Not!)

Ernie Andrews Posted November 26, 2011 Share Posted November 26, 2011 Yes Pete I agree -It was my fault for not quoting the previous post- If I had quoted Wiggys post it would have read different - I wasnt questioning your quote about the 100 I was questioning Wiggy that if most were in collections the chance of KR having a box of them would be pretty slim!
