Bart,

Hope youve found a real one !!

Easiest way to tell is the label on the real one is a dark bluey green/turquoise and smooth.. Vinyl as well

Boots are a bit bubbly and on styrene.

Good luck mate!

Hi Bart

Original is on Vinyl, as already stated.

The part of your description

"then a circled letter M and then a triangle followed by 99522"

Suggests that yours is a Styrene Monarch Press from the 70's.

It's a boot. The circled M show it's from the Monach pressing plant & the triangle is the greek letter delta (D). The delta number 99522 puts it into the 70's as the last of 60's, december 1969, was 78959.

Okay it's a boot for sure then. Shame. Is there any value to this boot then or are there loads around?

I would've been surprised if it were a real one as the collection it came out of contained a lot of UK presses and represses of big tunes.

[Pete S]

This was a fantastic quality reissue but what a lot of people don't realise is that it's about 10 seconds shorter than the original on the fade out, Lou sings "Be on the first train tomorrow in the morning baby" and it ends on the boot, on the original it has a little bit more instrumntal then you hear him say "ah yes I will". A very boring fact but it was always something that bugged me, having had the longer version on an emidisc...

Hi Bart

I think that It was Booted on White or Blue. However I think that I have seen a Black Label.

I have seen them between £10-£20. I'm not sure how common they are,

some of the Boots are now getting scarce.

[Bart]

Thanks for the help all. It's also pretty knackered so it's nothing to be raving about. Great tune still!

There's a couple of blue ones - the first is a copy of the proper Suemi label, then some time later came another blue one but with the logo in a straight line, no idea when these came out but from memory they are similar to the Lainie Hall second pressing. As you say, there's a white one too, that came out way later than the 1975 blue one.

[Pete S]

Yeah that blue one is the second blue press I mentioned above

[Steve G]

that was done in 77.

[Northern Soul Uk]

And it got re-released in 2005-6 on a triple pack ep by the great man calle 'The suemi sessions'. Top EP and quality press.

"you know the first black  smoke in the morning, baby" (train) - lyrics straight from the horse's mouth when he was at Prestatyn

Lou told me the story around him writing this song (what the inspiration for the lyrics was). He had us all falling on the floor laughing.

[Julianb]

I play this occasionally as my last 45. I always ask the crowd ' do you remember what you said to your Mum and Dad when you went out on a Saturday night?

I’ve got one of those early styrene boots I bought second hand around ‘77, came with ‘Home sweet home’ hand painted sleeve from the female seller. Suffers badly now from styrene burn.

Yes, it was a phone call from his (then) girlfriend that prompted Lou to write the song. She was really really missing him, so he promised to head home to her in the morning (after his show that night). He promised to be there, to go home & see her ....

So I asked him ... so you went home in the morning ...

With a wry smile ... he said ... actually NO, in fact I never saw her ever again ...

we all ended up on the floor laughing.
