Sorry I can't help with the list but does anyone know for sure if Stardust records are legitimate or not?
"‹Have been told that they are legally pressed in Canada but have never received a definite answer.
Reason for asking is that the Wife has a Stardust handwritten test press of Timi Yuro & have never seen another of this or any other title. 
If it is legit it must be worth a few bob bearing in mind how much the UK copy's go for & also the fact that it never got a Stateside release.

I think by and large they were legit i believe they were made in Canada as a sort of disabled workers employment set up.The guy who was in charge was aparently blind.The address on the label was a legit number most of the copies are now gone and oddments like the Tempests someday fetch crazy money i believe one went for more than the original album.Probably the rarest one is the night people by gary knight as most copies were warped and most of the surving copies went to Holland and Belgium for the other popcorn side.Strangely the Tempest 45 was bootlegged on Stardust i think last year by aparent artist unknown (answers on the back of a stamp for that one guy's)I've still oddments floating around (no plug) if anyones missing any pm me.I'll try and scrap around what i've got and give a sort of list with numbers unless anyone put's a full list up before hand best regards Simon.

There's an old thread about that test press elsewhere on the site.

Being a Stardust release, can't see how it would be worth anything, soz!

(I've had one of them as well)

I like that stardust did the repress of "gonna be a big thing" with both the yum yums and sapphires versions on either side. I've fancied owning one of those for a bit, seems to be one of the harder to find though. no small wonder as both are fantastic!

Think it was started by me or I at least mentioned it on the thread Pete.

Not worth a deal as you say but must be rarer than a Liberty copy as seen quite a few of them & they go for crazy money. Looks nice spinning round on a deck too if you're into that kinda thing.

Just needs two people in a 'got to have' mood on e bay & ow't could happen.

Like Simon say's above the Tempests goes for mad money & has even been booted on a Stardust lookalike label.

Probably the rarest one is the night people by gary knight as most copies were warped and most of the surving copies went to Holland and Belgium for the other popcorn side.

 

I have a non-warped copy of Gary Knight for sale if anyone's interested....
