    The GW number is the master/matrix number, used by the pressing plant. They aren’t Golden World labelled releases, the label is Ric Tic only and the catalogue number is the Ric Tic number although they are the same number. They were pressed at ARP. The rest of the releases were pressed at Columbia and RCA and carry their master number, ZTSC etc.

    It is a Golden World Recording, the early Ric Tic tie in with the GW numbering system. The later Rics Tics used the Columbia and RCA master number, ZTSC etc. Other groups of labels also utilised one numbering system across the label and subsidiaries.

    East Coast Test Press. Bell Sound stamp and Cameo labels used but reversed obviously to utilise the blank side. Anyone have the delta number of the west coast press? Both sides

    Never issued in the USA. The 1st one, white label promo that escaped is West Coast pressed by Monarch.

    Just incase you missed this great release, still some copies left. Get one before they are all gone.

    You are probably right it is a tad harsh. At the end of the day it's each to their own. As long as everyone enjoy's what they do then everything is fine. As I said not for me and I would generally avoid that kind of gig.

    I've heard one or two and they were terrible, murdered classic Northern. I generally associate them with handbagger and div events. They aren't for traditionalists and have no effect on what I do or where I go. I would generally avoid any event with one on. But Northern seems to be a popular bandwagon to jump on so I expect to see more of this kind of rubbish.

    A new multi part series about the rise and fall of the legendary Memphis label in in production and will show on HBO. Founded in 1957 by Jim Stewart and his sister Estelle Axton, originally as Satellite Records and it gave us some of Soul Music's legendary performers before it went in to bankruptcy in the mid 70s. https://www.udiscovermusic.com/news/stax-records-hbo-docuseries/

    Always loved this record since first hearing all those years ago. Never had a sniff of it when I was collecting these kinda records.

    But one-upmanship was about playing an exclusive or one of just a few, not one of 300/500 or even a 1000.
  18. Chalky
    Why distinguish though? Both from same master, both identical. Every big seller has several presses, you don't see radio and club djs bitching about which came first. Just keep them the same and put a stop to the exploitation and uneasy that exists.
  19. Chalky
    They can pay what they want in my opinion. But there is no need to make an instant rarity and no need to distinguish a second run from the first pressing run. They are both first issues, both originals. Its the whole stupid ideology some seem have in their hearts about playing one over the other. It seems to be more about the colour of a label, or the vinyl rather than "what's in the grooves".
  20. Chalky
    It is download only as of yet and it is available now on some sites.

    Stop advertising as limited edition. As soon as you say limited edition people who don’t want the record or even like the record buy one so they can rip someone else off. It should be strictly one per customer too to give others a chance. You see those out to exploit when they ask “how many copies”. It shouldn’t matter, the quality should be the over riding factor to a sale, not how many are produced, what label, what colour vinyl etc.

    Thanks Dean, thats illustrates my point exactly, it is barmy isn’t it. I don’t get just what they think they are getting from this, some sort of ego kick in front of their mates when behind the decks? It just show how ill informed and lacking education on the matter they are.

    Respect to Smudger. Nice to see not everyone out to rip off everyone else

    I presume discogs is wrong with the link to a 30s bandleader and the 50s band. https://www.discogs.com/artist/386695-Earl-Jackson https://www.discogs.com/artist/2765922-Earl-Jackson-Orchestra

    Back on topic and the down side to this different label crap etc is Dala missed out on a sale with the buyer I would guess being happy to pay three times the retail price and get one of a dealer on discogs? A repress is the first issue and stays that way until it is deleted. When new masters are made with new matrix details it then becomes a reissue. It is high time it went back to being about the music. That goes for the labels, collectors and Djs. The silly idea it isn’t original because a second run was done with a different label or wax is just plain daft, a change of mentality is needed by all.
