Simple 1....US 2....UK SECOND ISSUE Hi Dave, No need to shout, I can hear you well enough. What post was that Dave? Sorry, a second issue does not necessarily mean a reissue / re-release. What about those records in the States on small local labels that get picked up by the majors for National distribution, are they classed as reissues / re-releases? I bet not. Especially if the issue on the major label happens to be more obscure / rare than the local label, as sometimes happens. Nah, I'm sticking to my guns. If a record has not been released here in the UK before, then in my opinion, it cannot be classed as a reissue / re-release. Denbo. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Denbo Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 Except if you had read my post you'll find I never used the word RE-RELEASE. So looking at the word doesn't help much because I didn't use it. You did. I think you'll find it was used somewhere else in the thread. I just picked up on it and expanded on the word reissue.

So looking at the word doesn't help much because I didn't use it. You did. Let's not split hairs Dave, reissue is the same as re-release. At the end of the day, a record released here in the UK after it has been released in America, is not a reissue but a British release. Mr. Bang Bang Man on UK Monument, as opposed to it's first release here in the UK on London, is a reissue. I'm shaking my head here. I cannot understand how you can think otherwise. Oh well, time for bed. Got an early start tomorrow and I need my kip. Especially after all this hard work. Night all. Denbo. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Crumb Posted January 20, 2008 Share Posted January 20, 2008 You're just arguing about language here really. If I still had this it would reside in a cadboard box with my pressings, re-issues etc along with Nabay on Grapevine. I keep Betty Boo & the Happy Cats in a proper case with my other UK originals.

The UK is not an independent country at all. The United Kingdom is not even a country. It's a conglomerate of England, Wales, Scotland, and Northern Ireland. So, having established that you don't even comprehend the geographical area that records are reissued in, how on earth can you grasp the concept that if a record is released for the second time, irregardless of country, it's a reissue. By the way, if you go back to my original post on this thread I think you'll find that I said "Can't dispute that it's the first British issue, but at the end of the day, it's a reissue of a record that was originally released in the US."

I only put tracks on the cd's i give away at my do's that the residents own on original but many do's give away cd's have tracks on that the residents don't own thats there choice ..... but a 1st british issue is a 1st British issue end off .....but i'm sure this thread will keep going for a while yet !

Dave Rimmer Posted January 21, 2008 Share Posted January 21, 2008 demo issue (in the US ) Ah well, I feel another explanation coming on. You're obviously confused about the difference between a Demonstration copy of a record (Which is given away to DJs and Radio Stations) and an Issue (Also known sometimes as a stock copy and sold in shops). So there can be no such thing as a demo issue. I thought you'd have understood this with your love of pretty colours. It even applies to the second issues released in the UK.

So there can be no such thing as a demo issue. I thought you'd have understood this with your love of pretty colours. It even applies to the second issues released in the UK. I thought a man like you would know that sometimes there are more than one demo issued for some 45's in the US , that's why I used the term demo issue. As they may have issued more than one . This is a web board but maybe we should treat our posts as if they are the text of a book when you are on the thread as you like to be picky and twist small sections of the post . Not sure what pretty colours have to do with it Dave ?????? Let's use a real record and I'll keep it simple for you Dave the same way you make it simple for me Daybreak I need Love It was issued by the record company on ; A white demo Then issued on an Orange Demo Then issued on an orange stock copy (official release) The record company issued it at three different times with three different labels over a short period .... therefore you have a white demo issue , a orange demo issue and a stock copy issue (the official release).... and so the term demo issue or white demo issue is an acceptable term... you may not wish to use it but that's your choice. I think you are mixing up the term issue with official release.... because if the demo issue is slated then there is no stock copy issued as an official release Glad we got that sorted all the best , i'm sure we'll do it again David Edited January 21, 2008 by CAMBRIDGE SOUL Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Northern Soul Uk Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 (edited) No it wasn't, where did you get that uninformed rubbish from? It had a release date scheduled and advance copoies weresent out to reviewers, tv stations etc. That's what a demo is. They didn't do the demo to test demand. Ifthey did, why have many of the EMI labels demos got release dates printed on them? Demos, Promo's, Test presses, pre releases, is the name for a small number of copies pressed up weeks or even months before the actual release of a record. These are sent out to listed DJs, Radio stations and record reviewers so that they can be tested in various medias i.e Radio, clubs or magazines. Some spurious companies use promos etc. to their own advantage by putting all released copies out as demos, because most people would rather have a demo than a released copy. So in essence Demo's etc. ARE done to test demand before or IF a record is released. When a demo, promo etc. is sent out, in most cases it would have a reaction report sheet with it for the reciever to fill in with their thoughts of the record, and send it back to the record company, so that they could judge demand or reaction with a view to either releasing the track or not depending on reactions recieved. The reason some demos have release dates on is because that is the intended release date. I have many promo records with release dates on, that never actually got released due to lack of good reactions or reviews.

The reason I know this is that I was given copies by a pye rep and I told him Ive got the US promo- He said that PYe had the main licence and roulete had made mistake with the licence(Something to do with the credits) so the UK one was released before the US stock.
