Alfie Davison - Will The Real Re-Issue Please Stand Up ?

[Chris L]

I have to assume that the Philly Groove is a legitimate re-issue however when I heard it didn't sound the same

as the orignal Mercury issue. I see there's an issue on Monumental, pressing ?

Thanks Chris

Just played that Philly Groove one from the Goldmine site Chris - it sounds the same to me. Not sure about the release details - Right Track are legit though aren't they?

The glaring mistake in this - title - Alfie Davison Mercury 45 orig is titled : Love Is Serious Business .

The Monumental 'issue' is a pressing from 1984 - it has "Fortune Teller" by Benny Spelman on the flip. Sound quality is outstanding, though.

Chris, Philly groove is an alternative take. it was advertised as such when it came out.

[Peter99]

So a Monumental and a Philly Groove "issue" are out there? Alongside the mercury original 7 and 12.

I listened to that Philly Groove one earlier on the gold mine site and it seemed the same as the original.

Thanks, I assumed it was something like that.

I'm still not clear about this.
