I have just picked this one up from CANADA. It has the same style of sticker with slightly different proportions. It is a U.S.A press, just wondering if some Brunswick were Promoted that way in certain areas when DEMO copies were not to hand.

No info to hand about any BOOT or markings. Regarding ORIGINALS I have a STYRENE DEMO & VINYL Stock Copy Next to the mark " " there is a faint "MUSIC CITY" stamp in the deadwax on both sides of my copies. STYRENE VINYL

I have reposted my Original scans Plus the Re-Issue below

The Chambers Brothers also did a version. I had just edited my original post. As I haven't seen The Wire I am just guessing.

Possibly The Fiestas on Old Town or VIGOR The VIGOR version has Johnny Otis credits and is more uptempo than the Old Town version. Could also be The Chambers Brothers version.

Thanks Peter. Not sure how soon after the Initial release the "Special Rush Reservice" was done or why. Have seen others throughout the catalogue where this happens rather than reprint / press the same DEMO format. SINGAPORE :

COLUMBIA in the U.S.A.

As mentioned above Originals have Delta # 56960 in the Deadwax This one is an ORIGINAL Black Lined Variation with Detla # 56960 & 56960 X STYRENE MONARCH With a Matt Black Label. This one is the 70s Press Black Lined Variation with Delta # 99069-X & 99069 STYRENE MONARCH With a Black Label. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Apart from the obvious difference via the Delta # The -X Denotes the "B Side" on a Monarch Press. (Notice on this Black Lined 70s press Delta # 99069 the Deadwax suggests "Tainted Love" is the "A Side") It has Delta # 99069-X for "My Bad Boy's Comin'Home" which would be wrong.

The different variations are there throughout the Mirwood Catalogue. It can sometimes help looking for similarities of layout when assessing the rarer stuff by scan only. Different pressing plants and printers very often followed their own style beyond the labels logo.

As I mentioned earlier, most releases have at least two DEMO variations and Stock Copy. Here is the other variation to the one currently on ebay.

Found that most releases have at least two DEMO variations and Stock Copy. Never seen Block Print issues though. Amazed to find Double "A Side and A/B Side" MONARCH DEMOs for 5523. Making three DEMO variations so far and even more Stock Copy Variations. Always gave me hope of finding a My Little Girl DEMO 5511 but alas one probably doesn't exist. MONARCH : DELTA # 62723 = BABY, DO THE PHILLY DOG DELTA # 62740 = WESTERN MOVIES STYRENE STYRENE STYRENE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- STYRENE STYRENE ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- VINYL This one does have the Monarch Delta # even though it is Vinyl. Slightly different Label Layout to Styrene Monarch. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Guessing there's a DEMO out there for the Pressing Plant below. VINYL

Is that DEMO or Stock Copy Trev. I reckon if any Stock Copies are out there they would be Vinyl for the Block Print. East coast press as Robb suggests.

Top two are STYRENE and bottom one Vinyl of these Stock Copies. All three have Monarch DELTA # 59032 whereas the two DEMOs don't have THE delta # I believe the two DEMOs pictured above are definitely from the same stamper or pressing plant.

I bought the top DEMO from Soul Bowl very early 70s, the Script version quite recently. Both have Identical deadwax, Vinyl label sheen and feel etc.

An extremely Rare copy Credited to The Tempos. It was an Auction Item on Manships a few years ago as I recall.

I agree Derek It would be brilliant to travel back to the time when they were active. Here's another ALLSTATE. UNITED RECORD DIST. I had to take a photo rather than a scan in order to pick out the vibrant orange sticker.

Yes thanks Peter, hope you are too. The records are as I received them and I would normally go for a pristine label. Stickers or Stamps placed around the time of release for promotion I don't mind seeing.

Not sure if the Radio Station or Rep would have stamped "THIS SIDE PLEASE"

Howard Bedno - Music promoter in '50s, '60s

The two above have a "COAST TO COAST" stamp on them.

We all must have records with sticker removal marks and tears. However, there are certain Stickers that I either don't mind being on the label or expect to find. I have seen a few Hollywood press Charger for The "In" Crowd and would expect to find the sticker still attached.

Thanks for this Information Robb. As a collector this Information is invaluable.
