I read it was warped when it was put in a photocopier...

That's what I heard running photocopys of the label off ? Am sure someone knows Tim enough on here to bell him and reply - fill in the gap

Before you all jump on me and say this has been covered before, I've looked at SS archive and just want to go over it again so if I decide to sell it - The buyer gets what there expecting or it goes back into the box.

I've read about west coast and east cost even different pressing plants - so just need some clarity

On both sides of the run-out you can clearly see a circle with the MR stamp inside - also in the runout is the following

A side

ZXSE 12304 This is on the lefthand side of the MR stamp

On the righthand side is

A triangle followed by 100301 - X

B side Up to the rooftop

Run out markings

 ZXSE 12303 This is on the lefthand side of the MR stamp

On the righthand side is

A triangle followed by 100301 

As always any advice and help greatly appreciated - Thanks

Bang on - well spotted 👍🏻👍🏻

SOLD - record on hold 

Surely I can't be the only one who has the labels on the A and B side around the wrong way - however what makes this extra special (laugh) is that someone has used a black marker to ID wrong side 

made me laugh anyway

The songs were recorded on May 25 and June 6, 1972 at Syncron Sound Studios aka Trod Nossell Studios located in Wallingford, Connecticut.
The B side was "Covered-up" on the Northern Soul scene by Richard Searling as Rock Candy "Makes Me Feel This Way"

Slight mark on record but you cant hear it, plays great - really clean - stamped

£310 incs postage tracking / trace - prefer bank transfer or and old cheque no rush to sell will even reserve for end of month payments if that helps - PM me

Hey guys there got to be a book deal or a film out of this 🤣🤣😂😂

Wow - hey just to throw another spanner thought process in there - definition of Original is the first one made and not a copy - so with that in mind all the stuff on grapevine, Kent etc etc are not originals ? Or if they are what's the difference of a boot or pressing ? Is it just legal as neither by definition are not original. 

Robbk - interesting reading old school stuff - respect ✊ 

Hey guys theft is theft - if someone who believes they've had something stolen contacts the old bill in the states he's got to check out when he goes trough passport control when leaving - if no one complains and he leaves on the plane - he got nothing to answer for - no matter how much hes suppose to do this and that etc etc 

Cheers guys no sweat cost me a few quid back inte 70ts thanks for taking the time to share knowledge- all good 

Just a quick one 43 years since I brought this for a few quid - real or not, I understand that there were some good boots back in the day - to me it looks fine - but I guess am slightly bias - lol

Thanks guys appreciate the time for explanation - all good

While having a sort out I came across theses two

One large print with a drill hole / one small print without - 

Large Print

id - stamped 45118120     4

if the stamp is at 12 o'clock theirs a 2 stamp at 7 o'clock

Small print

id - stamped 45118120     1

if the stamp is at 12 o'clock theirs a 1 stamp at 7 o'clock

Am sure the record gurus will jump in as to why ?? - just curious - ta

Thanks Andy for the info - going buy 

 I know it was done on 12" anyone know of a 7" version- guess the time 3:40 has something to do with it ?
