Denbo Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 Again, I have two copies of this record, both in mint condition and both on vinyl. One is a yellow issue with a very official looking stamp in the runout grooves. The other is a white label copy but without anything that shows that it might be a demo. This white label copy does not have any kind of stamp in the runout grooves. Might the white label copy be a boot? The quality and look of the record would suggest not. Can anybody help with some informative comments. Can't make my mind up which one to keep. Normally I'd just keep both but I really need to trim down my collection a bit.
Pete Eccles Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) Mines a green label issue, or boot as the case may be Edited April 10, 2014 by Pete60
Premium Stuff Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) This came out on several formats. There's the plain yellow with black print, multi coloured label mainly green and black I think from memory, plain green, white label versions with and without "NOT FOR SALE" types DJ indicators on. Might be more versions. Don't think it was bootlegged Cheers Richard Edited April 10, 2014 by Premium Stuff

The Yank Posted April 10, 2014 Posted April 10, 2014 (edited) I've got this on the white label with no "promotional copy not for sale..." etc. The dead wax has an ARP stamp, BRS and M-603-A for the "Good Time" side . Edited April 10, 2014 by the yank

The Yank Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 It was probably pressed at another pressing plant. I don't know why this would have been booted.
dthedrug Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 HI ALL NEVER BOOTED, MY COPY IS YELLOW, This was a TORCH SPIN, JD had success with STAX however the record was a big hit in DETROIT CHICARGO & Johnny's home land CANADA, & I believe that some of the changes in label are due to this fact alone, GREAT RECORD DAVE K

Denbo Posted April 11, 2014 Author Posted April 11, 2014 Thanks everybody for your comments. I've just looked on Popsike and all the white label copies have "Disc Jockey Advance Sample NOT FOR SALE". Mine doesn't? Think I'll sell the white label copy.
Guest Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) Often wondered if the "Jomada" Johnny Daye and the "Blue Soul" Johnny Daye are the same person? They sound different to me! Anybody know? Edited April 11, 2014 by Guest
Ernie Andrews Posted April 11, 2014 Posted April 11, 2014 This record it bloody brilliant and better musically and danceability than alot of hundred pounds records! Although a Torch spin as stated alot of people have never heard it and when I played it on BIR last december quite a few were asking what it was!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y5bXriGr09A&feature=player_detailpage
Kev John Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 (edited) To me the Yellow labelled more common Then the White labelled with advanced dj on the label the rarer one's to me are the White labels without advance dj on label & The Green labelled ones Also noticed while diggin around that 2 demo copies with 2 different dates of release on them 1st written on date is 2/28/1966 & the 2nd date stamped 10 Jan 1967 I have the Green one & a White with no mention of DJ on it one Both with the ARP matrix stamp in the runout atb Kev Edited April 13, 2014 by Kev John
Hill868 Posted April 12, 2014 Posted April 12, 2014 Had this 45 in mid to late 70's, i think it came from Soul bowl, mine was def a white label promo, wouldn't have been booted, no great demand at any time, surely ?

Your right there mate, they were 10-a-penny in the early 90's, a copy in most sales boxes, it's a steady away tune
Soul-slider Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 Blue-eyed singer? My fave of his is the Detroit sounding 'I'll Keep On Loving You' on Blue Star.
Kev John Posted April 13, 2014 Posted April 13, 2014 (edited) It's supposed to have been released twice with different flip sides 1st with( I got soul) & the 2nd with (Only A Fool) Edited April 13, 2014 by Kev John
