Was this ever booted?

Yes, or a re-issue, I will try to find it and scan.

It's in one of my early record boxes, haven't been in for a while.

A bit rushed as I am going to work in half an hour.

This is an Original White DEMO.

Strange one this, as the "PLUG SIDE" (PART II)

Has the "-X" which denotes the "B Side" with a Monarch.

(Delta # 73035 = August / September 1968)

ORIGINAL DEMO - STYRENE MONARCH

(All of the Marks are within 180 Degrees of the Deadwax).

Unitrd_Artists_UA-50451a_DJ.gif-"UA-140495-RE" "MONARCH STAMP" "Delta # 73035-X"

Unitrd_Artists_UA-50451b_DJ.gif-"UA-140494" "MONARCH STAMP" "Delta # 73035"

I will search my other copy out on White DEMO.

Thanks for Posting these, I hadn't seen your copy of the Thick Paper one before.

The Other one, (I wonder what the Matrix Marks are), I haven't seen that one before, either.

I have Enlarged them all in the Previous Post to compare.

so what is the boot like we are all desperate to see one.

Always assumed this was a boot, but it might be the reissue. It's on vinyl. It's a clearer print than it looks on the photo.

It's scratched in

K - 8489 and UA - 2726 -

I'll Ask Steve If He Knows Anything But It's More Likely To Be Some Issue Within United Artist At the Time That Had Nothing To Do With Him. Besides "Breakaway" Steve Used Jimmy On A Pepsi Jingle And On Two Songs In The Soundtrack Of "What Do You Say To A Naked Lady" A Feature Length Film Version Of Allen Funt's Candid Camera.

On My Copy Pictured Above It Has UA - 140494 (On Part 1 Side)

and 140495 -RC 5 (on The plug Side)

IT MUST BE THE BOOT. I HAVE THE RE-ISSUE AND ITS GOT THE UA LOGO WITH UNITED ARTISTS UNDERNEATH. THE REISSUE HAS 1968 AS THE PRODUCTION DATE ON THE RECORD BUT WAS IT REISSUED THE SAME YEAR AS THE ORGINAL RELEASE?

I Wouldn't Imagine That It Was. Just Reading A Letter That Steve Wrote To Me In 1986 And As He Recalls It:

"Unfortunately, The Record Never Sold. UA Put It Out As A Freebee From General Motors, Didn't Promote It, And It Just Died."

So It Seems Unlikely To Have Been Reissued In The Same Year.

I think thats a legitimate press. Gary Lewis was done at exactly the same time. Late 74 or early 75.

Further to what I said earlier, I seem to think the Boot has the 1970s block style UA logo.

Here's the one that I have, Could be a Re-Issue I suppose.

As it is White & Black rather than the usual Biege I assumed that it was a Re-Issue or ?

It is from a box that I hadn't been in for a while, I thought that it said DEMO on it somewhere.

STYRENE - Deadwax = "K-8490-------------------UA-2727-"

Yeah, This One Is definitely more of the 70's style, in fact I think that UA had moved there operation out to Los Angeles by then. Because My Promo Has Them Still Listed In New York.

That's the one I was talking about.

Always considered this to be a 100% bootleg...

This is the uk original which every member of the Casino (and family and freinds) bought multiple copys of on its uk genuine first release at the time ? There are more copys of this in the charity shops than ABBA 45s ?

Or is this just nonsense ? laugh.gif

That was my Initial thought, unless it was some kind of re-issue, but why White & Black.

The Normal Stock Copy would have been Beige.

I am aware that these are Part 1 & Part 2, besides that, These two do look similar.

United_Artists_50451-2.gif

Just wondering if they were both Special Products, hence White & Black.

and the (UA2726) / (UA2727) below the 50451

Never seen that "Special Products" one before - I always assumed that the lower one was a legal repress for the NS market, but as we all know assumptions are dangerous things! :unsure:

It Took A Minute To Find This Thread...

But I Was Correct. Steve Hasn't A Clue As To Why The Demo Credits Vary From Being Fully Written Out As Arranged & Produced By Steve Karmen

Or The The Alternate Abbreviation Arr. & Prod. By Steve Karmen.

And Much To My Delight I Found The Polaroid Pictures That He Has Hanging Outside His Office With He And Jimmy During A Pepsi Soda Jingle Session. Looks Like They Were Having A Brilliant Time Too. He Also Sent Me One Of His Mint Copies Of The Issue And Yes The Colours On The Issue Are Quite Nice... Just Like The One Up For Sale :huh:

I think that the Special Products one was a legitimate re-pressing probably done by Soussan in '74/'75 ish.

I found about 200 copies of the re-press in an L.A. thrift store in '76, so I can only presume that they were done in L.A. and the over-pressings were dumped.........
