Just picked this up from a dj this morning.  Anybody ever seen one of these?  Any info would be appreciated.

Info on Beau Dollar & "Who Knows" here ..........

Your 12" seems to be a US boot (but I'm guessing about it's legality). Each different artist's track on the 12" (4 in all) originated on different US labels.

"Who Knows" originally released over 40 years back but reissued at least a couple of times. Once in France in back 92 ........

Looks like copies for sale on discogs for about three quid. It just looks like an out and out boot, isn't that what you thought when you bought it? The words "bonus beats" would definitely date it as at least late 1980s... Edited September 14, 2013 by cover-up

Purchased it in a lot and couldn't find anything on.  The one on discogs I came about looked different.

Isn't it this one? GRI = Guerrilla Reissue (aka bootleg I would imagine).

Thanks for the info.  It's not the boot listed on discogs, but obviously it's a boot from somewhere.

Looks the same as the copy on Discogs... same catalogue number, same label etc.

Original poster says it's not that one - although the catalog number, title and track listings appear to be the same.

Not sure what the difference is. It came in a pic sleeve though...
