This only happens because of bad management and incompetent supervision by managers!
I'm sorry to read about your Mother-in- laws hospital experience. Sounds like my stay in hospital
Last night I had to take my Mother to A&E. No problem with the ground floor staff, they are trying their best, but the management organisation is terrible! And where are the top managers? All gone home for the evening and off on the weekends!
Our A&E last night was a hell hole. People crammed into a low ceiling room with no windows and poor ventilation. No seats left, so people sleeping on the floors or standing against walls. After hours of waiting we finally gave up and I took my Mother home. A truly awful experience to put sick people through!
I don't think it has been booted as an issue. There may be some carver type things knocking about, with a photocopy label stuck on.
I wouldn't buy it without a Monarch delta number and details in the runout. All original copies I have seen, have them.
"It's The Same Old Me"/ "Let Me Live"- Otis Leavill - Bluerock. M- £20. Plus postage. Great Chicago double-sider.
"I Don't Want To Lose You"/ "Just Be Sincere" - Jackie Wilson - Brunswick. Ex+. £20. Plus postage. Double sided brilliance!
He didn't issue the record for the USA. He just pressed up a 1000 copies on a special order using the old Chess distributed Red Coach number 802 that the white demo used in 1973.
They where all shipped to the UK Northern Soul scene.
Rick Cooper on here said a while ago he ordered them while working at Global Records. Then I think Gene Redd pressed some more copies for other UK dealers.
His Red Coach label that was distributed be Red Lite was up to at least release number 808 by 1975, when the so called issue was pressed.
Original first issue of this great Detroit record.
Record is in nice Ex condition. Has two light pen x's on flip side. They are not very noticeable, but I always think it gives a little provenance to the originality.

Sold.
Original first issue UK Bluebird release from 1982.

Every time I see the photos of that record, I think there was a extremely rare, good condition record that now has been defaced and devalued with needless writing on the label!
If Kenny needed Frank Wilsons autograph, it would have been good enough having the sleeve signed, and a photo at the same time for provenance!
I met Nick and his wife around 1981. They were both good company. We did some tape swops and he taped me some great records, which have turned out to be rare and collectable items.
On Hold.
Great Northern Soul instrumental from the Stafford all-nighter era, when Guy Hennigan had it covered-up.
Record is an original first issue in great Mint- condition. £60 + postage. Second picture is the copy for sale.
Your info on how to tell the difference is correct, as far as I know.
The original green label copy should have four run-in grooves. The white demo of the green copy has 4 run in grooves.
Then as Tlscapitol mentions, there's also the blue label styrene west coast original as well.
Two great sides here on the original first issue Blue Rock.

I don't usually buy modern new releases, but I watched a You Tube clip and Arthur Fenn played it when dj'ing. I thought it good for a recent UK release. Anyone else like it?
Original first issue USA demo of this wonderful great double sider.
Condition is Ex, but it has some smudged name and date on the flip side.
£35 plus £3.50 postage.
Oh well, it looks like my theory didn't hold water. I will just have to be happy I have large Archer stamped copies of Eddie Parker and The Four Sonics, among others.
