Yes Mate, I remember the thread about that >>> LINK <<<

That's one of the reasons why it is one of the first to be featured it in the Sub forum.

Pleased you got it sorted, shame you had the problem in the first place.

Of course, you could just go for a Pandora copy, and avoid the confusion!

Yes, the Pandora copy would be nice,

not sure how many were ever made.

Certainly a Rare one.

Found my old one I sold June 2013 for £200 didn’t realise it was a demo till this thread - am sure someone said it was made in Canada ?

Once I had this one in my hand and thought it to be the bootleg but I was wrong; it is the real thing that the bootleg copied but without the white 'M'ohawk. This is a Monarch pressing I seem to remember, and in Canada you only have vinyl pressing plants. So no Canadian styrene pressings exist I am afraid.

The small oddity between the vinyl and styrene press of this lies within the fantastic flip side: 'no !-no !-no !' where this styrene edition doesn't figure the wonderfull dramatic string section as opposed to the vinyl which does ! Rich enough, I'd consider owning both pressings. But allas I am not and trim the collection I must.

And since I am found of the 'don't bring me down' Mohawk take, the one I heard first and got to sung under the shower, the Pandora 45 'rawer' take should be worth owning as well... But the price tag it commands tells me that is just not an option. I'll keep my dull looking W/DJ Mohawk copy that sound top though.
