Guest Dr Pickles Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 (edited) i have a demo copy i was given as a freebie years ago. absolutely no clue on its value - can anyone price this for me please? mike Hi Mike As far as I can work out, this was released on two labels: Canyon 1000 £70 - £80 M- Maple 9000 £40 - £60 M- I've no idea how rare the demo is and based on the above it would depend on which label. Hope that gives you some idea. Doc Edited March 25, 2008 by Dr Pickles

Pat Wallace Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 No I think Canyon is the rare label. Been bubbling for a while but set to go me thinks. It's in my play box (Maple) Pat Wallace
Guest Buey Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 No I think Canyon is the rare label. Been bubbling for a while but set to go me thinks. It's in my play box (Maple) Pat Wallace Yes I'd agree the Canyons are a lot rarer IMO, Am surprised it has'nt gone bigger yet - anyone know what kinda price the Chosen Few Lp "Taking all the Love I Can" on MAPLE goes for theseadays?

Guest Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 thank you for the responses. this is the copy i have. great record, even better that it was a freebie
good angel Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 I got my Birth of a playboy,Canyon Demo,from a junk shop mid 70s for 10p. I sold it for a few pounds. I try not to remember the other records I sold off when I was short of cash. Kev
Mark Bicknell Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 Have to mention 'Crown Four' version on Lee John....awesome record, a little harder to find I think than the 'Chosen Few' version. Regards - Mark Bicknell.

Guest dundeedavie Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 been hammered for a while, got sick to death of hearing it. so did i , sold mine about 2 years ago for £75
Simon T Posted March 25, 2008 Posted March 25, 2008 (edited) thank you for the responses. this is the copy i have. great record, even better that it was a freebie I've had this for years and always thought it was a boot, for no particular reason, but looking at it, it's got a 'bell sound' stamp on both sides & it's on vinyl, is it a first press?

Sebastian Posted March 26, 2008 Posted March 26, 2008 Have to mention 'Crown Four' version on Lee John....awesome record, a little harder to find I think than the 'Chosen Few' version. Regards - Mark Bicknell. The "Crown Four" issue on LEE JOHN looks very nice indeed! And it is definitely the rarest release for "Birth Of A Playboy". Not a different version though, it's the same recording as the Chosen Few releases.
