Mick Holdsworth Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 anyone seen a James Lewis - Manifesto Multi coloured vinyl boot ??, 4 colours same as the Eddie Foster ones Yes, but a long time ago, It was the green label - possibly Clive Jones had it, but we're talking about 35 years ago. At the time I had a 4 colour Eddie Foster but the grass was always greener on the other side, so as soon as I saw the Manifesto, I wanted it, even though I was never struck on the record. 2
Labeat Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Are we on the right track here, the thread is about vinyl colour not label colour
Mick Holdsworth Posted March 13, 2015 Posted March 13, 2015 Are we on the right track here, the thread is about vinyl colour not label colour If you mean Manifesto, then yes, four colour vinyl, same as the Eddie Foster boots. I mentioned the green label to differentiate from the yellow labeled copies. Cheers Mick

Dave Thorley used to play it via a red copy, as I recall...possibly Soussan's finest effort...always liked it (only have a black one, mind).

Drewtg Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1974, on top-deck of 400 E. Lancs express to Bolton, Les from Ashton showed me his Bobby Patterson - My Baby... The sexiest thing this thirteen year old had seen outside of my mums Littlewoods catalogue. Could never understand why they didn't do more of them. Was it a major cost issue, anyone? 1

I have a few Japanese Stereo classical LPs from the early '60s on Angel, all on red vinyl. One is really dark red, and the others are quite light. Well, after double-checking, apparently the red vinyl was made of a slightly different compound which was supposed to create less static. 1

Robbk Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Hi Graham. I know of the red vinyl copy of the Commands. From t'internet........ Commands - No Time For You - Dynamic.jpgthe-commands-hey-its-love-no-time-for-you-picture-sleeve.jpg Was that a legitimate re-issue, after the original sales run started selling well, or a legitimate re-issue for The NS market? After good local sales on Dynamic, the record was leased to Imperial Records, so the owner probably couldn't release that record with picture sleeve, just locally, after the national lease. Or, was it a bootleg, later, for The northern Scene? I don't remember seeing that issue back in the '60s. And, I really doubt that the original owner of dynamic Records would have issued that record on red plastic, and doubt that he'd have spent the money on the picture cover printing before the record started selling well.
Prophonics 2029 Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 This looks good but what a complete waste of good.plastic

And, I really doubt that the original owner of dynamic Records would have issued that record on red plastic, and doubt that he'd have spent the money on the picture cover printing before the record started selling well. Don't know the story behind those red colored vinyl 45's on Dynamic but I first have seen yeaaaaars ago in collections the Tonettes 'I gotta know' b/w 'my heart can feel the pain' on a WDJ Dynamic 103. It was 100% the real 6T's genuine stuff. And so is the Commands 'hey it's love' on Dynamic 104 as red vinyl I believe. I've ever seen only seen those two Dynamic numbers on red colored vinyl. So since the Tonettes red vinyl is a WDJ I understand that they must have been contemporary to the first releases and sold/distributed as and for the Commands 104 & 111 with or without the picture sleeve as an option...

Genuine 60's release Robb as far as I am aware. The picture sleeve is usually with the black vinyl release. As mentioned there is another release on the label with red vinyl so the label does have form.
