Guest MattB Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Heard this was booted, had a look for a topic on it but there were far too many to sift through.

Prophonics 2029 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 (edited) A shed load of originals turned up, seems a guy met the owners of the record label found other stuff on Prix, numbers are all the same on all the copies I have seen.

Guest MattB Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Ok, so does that mean that all the copies that are out there are original? The reason i ask is because there was someone selling them on ebay, $50 BIN and they had about ten copies so was just a little unsure. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Garethx Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Not boots: definite originals all found in one hit. Until the find this was a super-rare record and sold more than once for £1,000+. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Some people paid a big money for copies of that, before the big batch turned up! It's good that normal budget collectors can have a real chance of owning some of these previously, nearly unattainable originals.

Yeah, couldn't agree more, i hasten to add that i paid three figures for mine, and i thought that i did very well ! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Guest MattB Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 I think that depending on the amount of time you had the record for while it was still exclusive would depend on whether the money that you paid for it was worth it. I would still be gutted if i had paid over a 1000+ for a record that could be obtained for around £25 now. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Ernie Andrews Posted October 6, 2008 Share Posted October 6, 2008 as I have said - Whats the point of paying big money for a record when their are hundreds if not thoudsands out ther unless provenance can be given as regards distribution. The only measure you can have of whether a record is rare or not is looking for the original invoice for batch numbers and cross referencing with distribution and even that doesnt guarantee the rarity 100 percent.

Ken there are different designs on most of the issues, Eddie Ray is a perfect example, some are local press others were done for national. Check out the different colour releases on Marion Black.

George G Posted October 7, 2008 Share Posted October 7, 2008 A friend of mine found a used copy of the RE 45 years ago in Columbus and it's dark blue just like the find. If there's a different press, I'd really like to know. Copies have the script "Musicol" in the dead wax. Musicol was the operation that recorded and pressed the 45. The old studio log has the date June 13th 1969, which was either the recording date or the pressing date. The Soul Ensemble 45 on Prix/HSI was done at the same session. The copies on the market are 1969 pressings. It's possible there are two pressings within a few months, as there are with the Chandlers "Your Love Is Drawing Me Closer" (also recorded at Musicol). FWIW, I found the Soul Ensemble and Eddie Ray 45s years ago and they also match the quantity copies. A different friend of mine interviewed one of the RE members on a local radio show and I THINK he said something like the group member had a messed up copy (off center?) that they had a hard time trying to play. - George (Ohio music anorak) Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

All the copies of Royal Esquires 45's I have had have "Musicol" in the dead wax, so they are a 1969 press. Later 1970's PRIX releases didn't have this is the dead wax, just numbers. The Marion Black - Loaded went national (Green) label and was distributed by ROC-KER records and has virtue in the deadwax, the local PRIX label was Pink. The PRIX label didn't stick with one colour label, they came out on Royal Blue, Pink, Yellow, Red, Orange, Green, and Sky Blue. The Eddie Ray - You got me, came out local yellow label design and a different national yellow label design. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
