Phillip Mitchell Free For All - Demo Or Issue?


Recommended Posts

Posted (edited)

Sorry if this has been covered before but if it has I haven't been able to find the thread.

Seen a Phillip Mitchell Free for all stock copy for sale on here recently and I got me wondering which is the rarer, the demo or the issue.

Seen lots and lots of demos for sale but can't say that Ive seen a stock copy before.

Looked on popsike and it lists only a couple of stockers but lots of Demo's

What do ya think?

Hi Annie

 

Not sure there's much in it really - plenty of both about. I reckon it's about which one looks the nicest - and that's a very subjective thing!

Guess you have to be more careful buying an issue as the bootleg is a fairly good copy. Actually got both up for sale if there's any interest (boot and orig that is)

Yeah seen loads of bootleg demo's around Steve and your right they are very good copies.

Don't think they booted the stock copy ( did they?) so probably safer with that.

I Prefer the multi-coloured Shout label too.

So has the promo been booted too?

 

I didn't think the original issue or promo were expensive items.

Seen the demo go for between 50 and 75 but not sure about the issue.

Lots of white demo boots around but didn't think that the Issue had been booted.

On Popsike there's also a multi-coloured demo listed.

I listed a NM issue copy a few days back on here for £60 and it sold.

 

I thought that price was about right for one in that condition - I also sold a couple of promo copies last year in the same condition for £50, so a little bit less than the issue.

Supposedly commonish record but , as said, not often offered for sale

 

Would have said the issue is rarer..

Thanks John, as I thought havn't seen too many issues around.

Is the promo boot a good one - any easy give aways?

Peter

Thanks

Booted on Styrene and vinyl.

Vinyl boot probably more obvious with a label that looks like its been photocopied.

Apart from that they're pretty good boots with the only other difference in the matrix numbers.

Thanks mate.

 

Mm, reckon mine might be a wrong un.

:hatsoff2: HI ALL  It is easy to assume that the SHOUT label has no rare records because of the JAY BOY LABLE, Made them available in the early days of the SCENE?  Both DONALD HEIGHTS TALK OF THE GRAPEVINE & PHILIP MITCHALS FREE FOR ALL, Are two exceptions of the rule even though you can still find these 2 slipping the net and selling for $10 on US eBay :g:

Anyone of the view that Mel & Tim's version is FAR superior to Prince Phillip Mitchell's    ???

 

The Phillip Mitchell version was massive circa '72 - 'cos being 19 years old those kind of whizzers would fill a floor.
