Tlscapital Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 Few years ago there was a thread here about naming the much rarer demo to the common issue 45's or the much less rarer issue to the ultra rare demo and it went sometimes vice/versa. Someone in the thread claimed that there was a white demo to the Falcons 'I'm a fool (I must love you) on Big Wheel. Has anyone seen, hold scan or photographed one ?
purist Posted February 10, 2016 Posted February 10, 2016 I know this doesn't answer your specific question, but worth mentioning -I've seen several Big Wheel 45's on a white label, printed as per the green issue, but with no mention of promo, dj copy, radio station only, etc (same as the later Precisions 45's on Drew) Also some old photocopy scans made them look as though they were white but they were just green and came out pale. I think a wdj exists, but my memory is sketchy at best these days, maybe I saw one in a mag? Have you tried Popsike or the older fanzines? There are definitely wdj's of some 45's on the label, think I've still got Standing On Guard & Sandy Hollis in my boxes somewhere.

When I read that it existed on here in that old thread, I was glad to hear it should exist and so while there is life there is hope. I'm still kinda dubious since after all those years I have all the first round from Big Wheel label N° 1967 to 1970 on WLP (it doesn't say PROMO on the label anyway). But not the N° 321 'I'm a fool (I must love you)' which is supposedly prior to those and so it might never got to see a promo release...
