Hi all

I have a copy see photo attached but struggling to fine out if it’s a bootleg as I’ve never seen another bootleg the sound quality is good,label looks faded & no numbers or stamped matrix ??

all help much appreciated 🙏image.thumb.jpg.d4f19c1f6ff7c2e6ea728b673ac04ba8.jpg

Doesn’t look like the one I remember nor like the one on discogs or 45cat.  The text on the right on yours is right aligned, other scans it isn’t, all centre aligned. The font doesn’t look right either…

Discogs (one on 45 cat has green font)

That's a badly handcut label , probably stuck on the Outta Site boot for some silly vanity thing.

Zoom in on the cutout round the centre.

Didn’t realise there was a reissue

I’ve checked out on 45cat my copy also has green text but font is incorrect and code is incorrect as mine states 174-1637 on both sides,it can’t be the osv reissue in disguise as it does play the correct a & b side ,I guess it’s just a rare boot , but nevertheless a boot 👍

Notes

Cosimo Code:
A: 174-1637
B: 174-1638

looking at the poor quality label and print and spelling mistake on the time z instead of 2 could be a jamaican press possibly done in very small quantity by coxone for his sound systems

and after giving "vendor" a listen, all the hallmarks of the kind of soul sounds that were played on the jamaican sound systems, tunes such as...

robert parker - i caught you in a lie

bobby bennett - alone with my tears  released in jamaica on affirmative

walter wilson - not now but later  released in jamaica on wand

Yes outa sight all so Donna King and Jerri Hall

Already done in 2011, the Donna King is the flipside of the Sonatas. Donna King was already booted in the 80s too
