Glad to see that Sunnysoul could back up the theory of the solid centre , not sure if it was once his , but as many people know it is now mine and has been for a while, I obviously read these threads as the owner of this treasured gem, and have gone back many of times and examined this record, obviously when the seed of doubt is planted . but now once and for all I am sure of its authenticity. I'm not the best at photos but here are a few , and for those that do not see what I see , here is my description.
Side 1 AS LONG AS THERE IS YOU (Matrix) LBF 15182 B//2 v 420 11
Side 2 IT'LL NEVER BE OVER FOR ME (Matrix) LBF 15182 B//2v420 111
You will see on the photos that a some time there was something printed on side 2 , I can clearly see above the title letters ORD which I believe are the remains of the word RECORD some of the other letters can be made out , but I'm not sure what was the original print, you make up your own mind. someone has wrote on it S5709 ?and PHB ? my theory is that this is as near to a DEMO as could possibly be pressed , taking on board that this record had already been released on an album in the USA??? not sure if there are any cases of a record being released in one country , then being put out on a DEMO in another at a later date , taking on board that liberty records was now in the hands of another owner, when this was released in the UK.
Perhaps some of the far more educated can now shine some more light on this,
Value :- well some might say £40 others might say £1500, obviously that's down to the market.
Value :- of the only solid centre copy pressed for demo reasons , or the only one known of its kind , some would say , the same as the others , (but its not is it) you find me another, I do not know of one ,or have never seen a picture of one .
IT'LL NEVER BE OVER FOR ME, anyone who meets me will be free to have a look at this copy , anytime I have been asked to do a spot it is with me, or at our own venues, it is normally with me , feel free, and KTF
