Hi

Has anyone, any information on the history of this release. Also any Idea of Value DEMO & Stock Copy, which is the rarer of the two.

I have a feeling that the Stock Copy is rarer, as I haven't seen another copy.

Having said that DEMO's also appear scarce.

Butch Baker - Batman At The Go-Go / Robin At The Go-Go - St Lawrence 1010

Was it just a question of copyright, as they even re-recorded and changed the issue number to 1011

for Working At The Go-Go / The Fat Man

I had always assumed that the 'Batman at the Go Go' was an attempt to cash in on the Batman TV series and I remember there was talk of a desist notice or writ against the label owners at St Lawrence. Presume it was then reissued as 'Working at Go Go'. As for price Batman is the more expensive and books at about £200.

But there is a catch, and this may confuse some collectors, my memory tells me that it was 'Working at the Go Go' the cheaper version that was actually played first on the scene, late Torch early Wigan, and as I remember it was the collectors rather than the Djs that then unearthed the rarer 'Batman' original?

Would love to know more too ceratinly one of those mystery records.

Hi

I have just found a current Value for the DEMO - https://www.raresoulman.co.uk/d/46184/BAKER,_BUTCH

Anyone know of any information or value for the Issue.

The reason I ask is that Manship's book states DEMO only @ £200

Not selling, Just curious as I have the Issue & DEMO for 1010

or

Any other information on the DEMO as it was obviously withdrawn, re-recorded and re-issued as 1011
