Guest Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 (edited) I was recently trawling through information , and amongst it . were scans of the promotional release of / for Jack Montgomery's " Dear Beloved " ......... I did not take much notice at first , but when I looked , one label states the release number - SCE 12152 . with " Promotional Copy " , and the other states the release number as SCE 12152 DJ , with the legend " Not For Sale " and " Promotional Copy " ........ Why the two promotional releases ? Is this due to different pressing plants for the record ? Whilst we are on this subject , why are there two different titles - " Dear Beloved " and " My Dear Beloved " on the release copies ? , and for what reason ? ........

Malc Burton When I asked Don Mancha about the two different titles on the issue copies he wasn't even aware of a difference and couldn't provide any explanation. Don Mancha Interview

Malc Burton - Hi Malc I have been working on that list you sent to me. I know that I have a Coloured DEMO scan somewhere. Trouble is they are mostly on a disk that has gone A.W.O.L. Any record that I own, isn't a problem scan wise. As I said, I don't own this one, but have found this scan. I believe that it is the Different pressing plants involved. -------------------------------------------------------------- Here's another that you were after, again I don't have the record but found this scan.

Guest Posted June 3, 2008 Posted June 3, 2008 I believe that it is the Different pressing plants involved. Hi Roger - and thanks ....... The scan of " DB " you posted now means there are three different WD releases , the one above with the addition of A to the label / release number - SCE 12152 A ........ Possibly as you state , and I thought , different pressing plants , but why the difference in the wording relating to the promotional release , and the the catalogue numbering ? ......... Malc Burton
