Tolbert Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Hi, there are 4 different versions on of the Dyson's Faces on Discogs: Dyson's Faces (LP) DMC (4) 1975, Dyson's Faces (LP) Dy-Rich Records 1977, Dyson's Faces (LP, RE) DMC (4) Unknown, Dyson's Faces (LP, Album, RE) Dy-Rich Records Unknown ...so is the blue one from 1977 a "ok" record to play on a soul night? I'm confused....thanks Tim
Sebastian Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Dyson's Faces (LP) DMC (4) 1975, Dyson's Faces (LP) Dy-Rich Records 1977, ...so is the blue one from 1977 a "ok" record to play on a soul night? The 1975 and 1977 releases are two totally different albums.
Tolbert Posted December 21, 2012 Author Posted December 21, 2012 Thanks Sebastian, but have they the same version of "Welcome To All This Love Again" or are they different?
Steve G Posted December 21, 2012 Posted December 21, 2012 Thanks Sebastian, but have they the same version of "Welcome To All This Love Again" or are they different? Dyson was putting stuff out as and when he could, adding tracks etc. Not uncommon, they are on his label and he probably sold them locally at gigs etc. I did know the full story once, I'll see if I can find it.
Hammersoul Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 This is the copy you need Tim: https://www.discogs.com/Dysons-Faces-Dysons-Faces/release/945709 Just beware this got a repress with same colour cover,the cardboard inside on an original is heavy/Brown cardboard.Think it`s white on 2005 press. Thought the Pink lp was poor with differant tracks if memory serves. 1
boba Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) These are all legit 70s presses. He only has "permission" to play the first one? Seriously? EDIT: I apologize if am misunderstanding and you are trying to tell him the best pressing or something like that. Edited December 22, 2012 by boba
boba Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 Also, if you really want the first press, I'm pretty sure the pink version of the first LP is the first press.
Guest Polyvelts Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 You can play whatever version you like ! I'm not asking permission to dance to it !!! Remember Stuart Cosgrove was big on 'welcome to all this love' early-mid eighties, but he also used to play the INCREDIBLE "we're two fools in love" ! Such great taste !
Steve G Posted December 22, 2012 Posted December 22, 2012 (edited) Also, if you really want the first press, I'm pretty sure the pink version of the first LP is the first press. Yes quite right, red / pink label came first. Two years earlier. Track listing is slightly different - not "poor" at all Wayne. You can play whatever version you like ! I'm not asking permission to dance to it !!! Remember Stuart Cosgrove was big on 'welcome to all this love' early-mid eighties, but he also used to play the INCREDIBLE "we're two fools in love" ! Such great taste ! What happened was that John A had a small run on the album (pink copies) that he got from Dyson himself - 15-25 copies which he sold @ £15 each. I remember him saying the run was short and he probably wouldn't get any more. Stuart, I and 13-23 others brought them within a week of them arriving in Kings Lynn; it was one of those where John put a copy on the "pile" of everyone who was turning up that he thought had taste.....we championed the album in Blackbeat at the time too.

Cheers for that Steve, I do remember reading about it in BB too of course ! Funnily enough I've just been googling Stuart and radio Scotland are replaying his 'floorfillers' show from a few years back, its pretty much solid oldies but great to hear the enthusiastic tones of 'the man who fell from Perth' once more !! https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b01p8tjz
Hammersoul Posted December 23, 2012 Posted December 23, 2012 Steve,i remember my mate buying the Pink/red label one (it was a reissue lol) and when we went throu it,there wasn`t much on it apart from Welcome to all this love again and Don`t worry about this jones (both very good tracks) which are on the Blue label copy.If you could highlight any others i might have missed,much appreciated. I still think the Blue one is the lp to get(even if it`s 2rd press),gonna stick me neck out here: there`s also 4 other really good tracks which you won`t find on the Pink copy: Till i`ve got this feelin of love. Cry Sugar. You and me. Try me baby. So m`lord,in this case,2rd press gets priority over 1st press 2

Thing is, these things were totally unknown at the time, no internet, and nobody knew whether any more would ever turn up. No one here had ever played any of the tracks etc. So ya bought them while they were there. If you didn't you might not see them again.....but the internet changed all that.. .
Hammersoul Posted December 24, 2012 Posted December 24, 2012 you're only saying that Wayne because the blue one was on your 'pile' - the 'pile' for those without taste Ha ha,as it`s Xmas,i`ll let ya off. Actually i prefer the colour Blue to Pink 1

That`s true,i was using jumpers for goal posts/playing run outs when they both came out .Fair play you got a copy early . I do remember when i was after a copy,how little info most people knew about this in the 90`s re the repress/original .Think the internet`s been a great help rather then word of mouth. 1
ockers Posted May 3, 2013 Posted May 3, 2013 ive a sealed blue copy and no mention of a reissue so without breaking the seal how do i know if its the original or repress?
