Gaz Lees Posted May 2, 2019 Posted May 2, 2019 Can anybody tell me how to identify an original Edwin Johnson -Ain't that enough to make a man cry - Post records I know its been booted along the way wondered if you have any info to determine the original from the boot I have a feeling on the boot the label is a light blue rather than a royal blue on the original any other info would be appreciated ie matrix details etc. Gaz Lees
Speedlimit Posted May 2, 2019 Posted May 2, 2019 Didn't know that had been booted wouldn't have thought it would appeal to the masses .
Mr Soul Posted May 5, 2019 Posted May 5, 2019 Not booted as I’m aware, sold one a couple of years ago
Edwin S Wales Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 (edited) just dug out my copy which I’ve had for a good few years and it came from the states. Run out info on the a side is scratched in . It reads P-1-A , 3-26-71 and NOLA SOUND. Didn’t think that this had been booted. Hope this helps Ed Edited May 6, 2019 by Edwin S Wales Spelling
Soulfulsolutions Posted May 6, 2019 Posted May 6, 2019 I had at least 10 copies several years ago and remember that every label had silver inkspots on them (like Edwins image above), and not one played through without a little bit of audible feedback due to lower quality pressing plant, and I can't recollect anyone talking about boots!

Kev John Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 (edited) Just found my copy print definition is sharp & label colour looks darker than record above & no white spots on the label Just to state same run out matrix marks as previous post P-1-A , 3-26-71 and NOLA SOUND. Just played record sounds fine to my ears Edited May 10, 2019 by Kev John Just played record & sounds fine to my ears
Shsdave Posted May 10, 2019 Posted May 10, 2019 Yes mine plays fine & no marks silver or otherwise on label. Like Speedlimit wouldn't of thought it would appeal to the masses (unless Butch started playing it ) Played it a few times early doors at Solid Hit to little if any real interest. Just had a look & surprisingly doesn't appear to be on youtube. Have to dig it out & give it a spin later, I think it's great 1
