It looks pretty red!

Funnily enough I’ve recently looked thro the QCA related stuff on Discogs. I found just one 45 Teri Butler ( see below). Couldn’t be bothered to check the LPs tho’

Both added to https://www.discogs.com/lists/Stock-Image-Label-Same-symmetric-pastel-coloured-background/433809

The Anderson Brothers has been added to the Discogs list. This lead to the following (also added)

And another for the original topic:- Double O’s - Colour One Tear Black - SPLIT RECORDS

I’ve created a new Discogs list and added all of the above. It’s open for anyone to add to. 16 entries so far. https://www.discogs.com/lists/Stock-Image-Label-Same-symmetric-pastel-coloured-background/433809 Over the years I’ve seen dozens of 45s with the same distinctive symmetric pastel coloured background. These 45s are pressed by QCA (Queen City Album) in Cincinnati Ohio.This list is to catalog these records.

And another for the original topic:- Double O’s - Colour One Tear Black - SPLIT RECORDS

“Philadelphia Routes’ - the history of Philly music - on BBC iPlayer radio. 6 x 30 min episodes - from Cameo Parkway to PIR & TSOP. Be quick - first episode times out in 3 days.

Thanks - quite prolific and some great less obvious left field soul releases!! How could I forget - have that Turner Bros 45 s well!!

All, Over the years I’ve seen dozens of 45s with the same distinctive symmetric pastel coloured background. Does anyone know the reason for this? Same pressing plant maybe? AND Lets see how many of them are out there - post your pictures. Here are three of the top of my head:-

Strangely enough I played love Potion No.9 when I last dj’d at Filthy Soul in London about 18 months ago

No sorry. I found out about the reissue (boot?) on another thread (can’t find) and found one sold on eBay for £21 last year

I think this one is the reissue

A mint original is £1200-£1500 so a VG+ would be £800-£1200 depending on how ‘VG+’ it is!!! KIV it’s been booted with the capital letter label design

Wand & two Dispensa

I cut my own inserts." - bought ones are too flimsy. I got a 7.50" x 7.25" & a 12.50" x 12.25" thick glass plate made up as my templates and after trying multiple methods found the best way to cut card is an electric bread knife!!!

https://soundswholesaleltd.co.uk/ Just looked around and these are the still the cheapest. Used them before. Good quality

PMd you

Yep - I think it was £500 which at the time I thought was a good price.
