Different pressing plant !

I picked this up from the US in 1992/93. It's a pretty hard record, I paid about $70 at the time. If I remember correctly my copy was the same as your ebay purchase. I don't rate it to be honest, luckily I traded it for Clara Wood the following week. ?

Julie ,Julie,Julie,{Cary Grant ,quote} the mistress of understatement! If i had too endure more than 2 nanuseconds of this abomination iwold have to attach electrodes too my testicles and throw the switch! What happened too your article in "Soul Up North "No88?, I am a big fan LOL .

haha. you guys are clearly not popcorn fans!

also, this record is on a clear light blue vinyl. interesting.

 

I won one of these on the bay a decade ago, nice press of the label, and quite rare as apposed to the yellow issue and white Demo of the later issue....  sold em all now :-((

Looks real enough to me.  The elaborate labeled record is the New York (or, at least, East Coast) pressing plant, while your issue was pressed in Los Angeles (and is certainly legitimate).

thanks all!

That's where my copy came from...
