There's a betty Swan album called the Money years and on that there's a picture of the demo, I can't have just seen it on that, I'm sure I have seen them. May not even be that record on the cover, not got the album anymore to check. Probably mistaken. All good mate thank you very much. Edited June 21, 2019 by Winsford Soul
Ficklefingers Posted June 21, 2019 Author Posted June 21, 2019 Just checked a copy of the LP you quoted Steve and it does indeed show a demo! Top Man and thank you So.. all I need now is someone to sell me a copy

That's the Kent LP ... ? ... the demo on the cover of that is "Don't Wait Too Long" , the Make Me Yours pictured is the black issue. There's some info here suggesting that they didn't skimp on promotion for the single so you'd think there'd be umpteen demos about ?

Top Man and thank you So.. all I need now is someone to sell me a copy I remember talking to Carl Willingham many years ago and I am positive he said he had Make Me Yours on promo copy,he said at the time that it was extremely Rare. Chris. 1
45cellar Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 It does exist as a Double A Side Promo. Extremely Rare. Took me ages to find a copy. MONEY 126 The Stock Copy does however have 2 slightly different labels. Only ever seen the DEMO as the above design. The following released DEMO also a Double A Side. MONEY 127 2
45cellar Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 MONEY 113 has a White DEMO but the Stock Copy is the later design. Guessing this was released during the Design Change. MONEY 113 MONEY 115

45cellar Posted June 21, 2019 Posted June 21, 2019 This MONEY 110 DEMO for me begs the question of more than one DEMO for any of the other releases. If you study the label for "MICKEY'S EAST COAST JERK" there are 2 different print runs for the A Side during the change to the B Side. MONEY 110 As I mentioned earlier there are 2 different Stock Copy label designs for "MAKE ME YOURS" Regarding the existance of more than 1 DEMO for MONEY 126. We can be more certain as time passes but never say never as there are still surprises out there.
45cellar Posted June 22, 2019 Posted June 22, 2019 As an addition to this question. When Re-released on ABET the DEMO copies do have "I Will Not Cry" as the B Side However, I have found the Juke Box copies on ABET to be more elusive than the ABET DEMO. Juke Box
Joesoap Posted June 23, 2019 Posted June 23, 2019 There's another one of hers on Abet where they mucked the label / b-side up.

Many thanks for the scans and info Roger @45cellar So, in summary, defo black label demos of the B Swann 45 - with a white demo NOT to be discounted as there may be copies out there.. Somewhere !!

Somewhere !! I would think it very unlikely that the earlier white demo label design would have been used beyond the 1965 releases. Checking through my DEMOs sitting on either side of MONEY 126 "Make Me Yours" there are A & B Side DEMOs I was just speculating that there could be the possibility of another DEMO release for MONEY 126 including the B Side. There was a thread on Soul Source where MONEY 126 had been seen on a list as an A & B SIDE DEMO but no scan. (Typo perhaps) ? However, I would guess to it being a Black label as it was released in 1967. MONEY 113 -- (1965) MONEY 122 - (1966) MONEY 126 -- (1967) MONEY 135 -- (1968) 1
