Guest Brooky Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 (edited) Saxie Russell - Psychedelic Soul - Thomas Saw this for sale last week but the label colour didn't appear authentic from my understanding of how the original is supposed to look so I decided not to bid for it. It was however described as '100% Original' The deadwax was as follows according to the seller:- deadwax SIDE A n°: CT-68010 7/8/5 deadwax SIDE B n°: CT-68011 7/8/5-X Any views on whether it's original/reissue/boot??? Always wanted the original of this title and now wondering if I've let one pass me by! Thanks Simon Edited February 20, 2012 by Brooky Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Robbk Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 It looks original to me. Eddie Thomas had pressing jobs done in a lot of different pressing plants. They had several different label designs and colours. That's one that Thomas used. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Thanks Simon It looks ok apart from the light greeny shadow on the inside of the center hole which is very like the colour of the pressing the record it'self could have faded , there is a slight greeny tinge around the words Saxi Russel Hard one to call Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
boba Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I think the green thing is just an artifact of the scanning or how he saved the image, not something that's actually on the record. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

boba Posted February 20, 2012 Share Posted February 20, 2012 I honestly am not an expert on bootlegs but it does look like the white label original I have that came from a chicago thrift store. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
