Soul-slider Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/The-vibrations-cause-youre-mine-epic-/121946766618?hash=item1c6497fd1a:g:L4AAAOSwgApXBCre I read somewhere that these Epic 45's with 'Stereo' on them are 70's repressings. Makes sense as most 60's records are mono. Is this a re-press then? 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Rhino Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) the fact it was a crack in it and still asking £120 is a bit of a cause for concern. looks like a re issue to me Edited April 6, 2016 by rhino spelling Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Spook Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 Only marking it up one grade without the crack !!! As it was released in 1969/70 there could have been two production runs just when stereo was being introduced. Both originals one just one slightly later than the other It was reissued on CSP Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Soul-slider Posted April 6, 2016 Author Share Posted April 6, 2016 yellow stock copies with "Stereo" word are early 1970s repressings & often sold as originals original 1960s pressings have the wider print & also narrower print but a vinyl press not styrene. early 1970s repressing that is still being offered at original prices. the differences are STEREO, 45RPM in a different font, different wording at the label base & the catalog number is a different font. it's the equivalent of 1970s Okeh repressings with the small 45, of low value, if still collectable. Above is the quote from a well known source Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Chris L Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 (edited) £120.00 with a crack, sounds optimistic for sure.....................my original sold for £190.00 Edited April 6, 2016 by Chris L Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Spook Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 To quote the well known source then. Both are legitimate releases the Mono being the Original US release and the Stereo the 2nd issue. 1 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Both are legitimate releases the Mono being the Original US release and the Stereo the 2nd issue. Yes as you say the first mono release is the original USA release, but i would think the 70's stereo copy was never released in the USA. Probably all the copies were shipped to the UK because it was popular on the Northern Soul circuit. So maybe not a 2nd USA issue as it doesn't have a later release number, but a special pressing made by Epic/Columbia for the UK?

Peter99 Posted April 6, 2016 Share Posted April 6, 2016 An evergreen record for me. I still like it a lot. Wouldn't pay £120 for a cracked repress though! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

clevesoulie Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 With regards to the stereo copies, were they recorded at a lower volume? When I DJ'ed with my copy, it didn't seem too loud, and I had it on 6 out of 10 on the volume. Best, Mark Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
