A few of mine,

Cheap, cheerful, must haves.

First time I've used this scanner, doesn't do the colours justice.

The Colour on my scanner for some reason doesn't show how Yellow these actually are, they appear Gold when I scan them.

Only seems to happen with the Ric-Tic or Golden World Labels.

It's the red labels on my scanner, the yellow is almost 100%, the blues 98%, but the reds really poor, in your hands the three are the same shade,

but not when scanned. maybe I'll change the colour scheme on future red scans with a photo thingy package.

I've got the San Remo Golden Strings LP on Ric-Tic, makes a nice change from the UK TM one...

Some lable scans, Lee

Always thought the yellow vinyl ric-tic of edwins "agent double o soul" was a boot leg. 3rd lot of scans from the top.

Dunno ? you tell me. this is all I have to go on, got no other info.

[45cellar]

I think you're right the Yellow & Red Label on Vinyl is suspect & possibly a Boot / Repro press.

However the one below is also Vinyl & I am led to believe is OK - Can't find much out about it to be Honest.

[Tony A]

So it's yell/red original is it Roger ?

Thought mine was a second issue and not a boot as Daz stated, any info would be of help.

Cheers, Tony.

AGENT OO-SOUL

(Agent Double-O-Soul)

I believe that this Yellow Label is from the first batch as it has both Titles

Exactly as the White DEMO has.

Then Yellow & Red Labels below, all produced at the time of release as far as I'm aware..

Not sure where this one below comes in.

[Dave Fleming]

Great thread,i`ve got the full set on Issues (where issued) all bar RT-116,which i think is one of the hardest Ric Tic`s to find,also took me a while to find Issues of,Laura Lee RT-111 and Fan Four RT-119,which i ended up swaping for Promos of both,here`s a few scans inc the RT-103 one sided Promo..

four different variations "All Turned On" that I Have, Still think this is one of the finest Inst. tracks, remember when "Hungry For Love" got flipped for this one.

Strange lyrics on this one - opens with the lines:-

Mother nature was good to you baby

She gave you everything you need

Think this was also used as the backing track for Fabulous Apollos - Determination - Valtone which was on Chalky's Stafford 3 Podcast which I think I may prefer.

Also the backing was used for Clarence Jackson "If It Don't Fit" on Valtone

A few Ric-Tics from Around The World.

[Autumnstoned]

Yeah - just had a listen to it on You Tube - it's not bad. Presumably as Andre Williams is credited as having co written it, his version came out first?

Great stuff Roger, thanx for posting that link. Still play "All Turned On" myself, such a great track, and they sound as tight as a naff's chuff!

Well, nowt wrong with only having one the best on the label, is there??

Quite partial to Willie G- Meet me Halfway, meself.

And, am I alone in thinking that To Win Your Heart, aint a patch on Festival Time??--- It just sounds so contrived to me.

Thanks John.

Didn't realise RT 116 was scarce as that on issue, having said that, the popsike scan is the first time I'd seen a copy! (mine's a WD) I must add that I love this legendary label, and it is one of the few Detroit labels I've managed to complete quite reasonably cost wise, albeit a mixed bag of issues and white demo's.
