Just a quick one

Pages Heartaches and Pain

On my small list of original wants - been a good few years now

I know it's been discussed before on SS but any update since on the "other" one. Ie is it a boot or a legit reissue? - If a boot, how much should this record be exactly or roughly? and does anyone know how it plays?

thanks

its definitely a boot.. they play ok i suppose but not quite as good as the original

its 15 seconds shorter than the original... it does actually sell for £100+

people pays their money and that is the value tho many sneer at boots counterfeits as all being a fiver

OK, that's an expensive boot, seen one at £200 - think i may just play it via Youtube until a "real" one turns up (and i can afford it).

Thankyou Mr Pinch

Reply to self - OK just found it on Suncut 2018 - didn't even know about that one? - presuming that is NOT a boot, that'll do me for now

Thanks

Yup, the Suncut one released in 2018 is a legit re-issue.

I'm pleased you have found one. As you say it has been debated on here a few times previously, but that matters not.

The original release is a tough one - it has been for many years now. One of the best early 80's modern soul dance records, and one of those that stand the test of time. It still sounds great to me and I just danced around the kitchen to it.

You have good taste Timbo. 

Best wishes.
