Description
THIS IS A BEAUTIFUL RECORD STORE DAY 2011 SINGLE. IT IS A BLACK & WHITE MARBLE "LAFAYETTE BLUES" with "SUGAR NEVER TASTED SO GOOD" ON THE B-SIDE. ITS CATALOG # is TMR-089 . MINT COPY THAT HAS NEVER BEEN PLAYED.
HOWEVER, HERE IS WHERE IT BECOMES DIFFERENT- I HAVE SOLD MANY, MANY OF THESE AND HAVE ONLY HEARD OF SMALL NUMBER WITH THIS COLORING. THE GREY MARBLE COLOR OCCURS THROUGH A MIXTURE OF WHITE and BLACK WAX. IN SOME RARE CASES YOU MAY FIND THAT ONLY ONE COLOR IS IN THE PRESS- THE RESULT IS A "VARIANT". I KNOW THIS OCCURRED WHEN THE WHERE PRESSING ELVIS PRESLEY'S "BLUE" ALBUM. THE BLUE WAX WAS EXPOSED TO SOME BLACK WAX, AND A FEW HUNDRED COPIES CAME OUT (BLUE and BLACK) MARBLE INSTEAD OF SOLID BLUE COLOR. I HAVE HEARD OF COPIES, OF THIS RECORD, WITH ONLY A FEW SPECKS OF BLACK and GREY- THIS ONE IS 85% TO 90% SOLID WHITE. IN THE FIRST PIC YOU SEE A SLIGHTLY GREY MARK AT 1 O'CLOCK and ON SIDE TWO (shown in second pic) YOU SEE TWO LIGHT GRAY LINES AT 6 O'CLOCK. IN THE LAST PICTURE I POSITIONED IT BETWEEN TWO REGULAR MARBLE COPIES SO YOU CAN SEE THE DIFFERENCE- IT IS QUITE DRAMATIC- GOOD LUCK!!!!
IF THERE IS ANYONE FROM TMR OUT THERE VIEWING THIS AD I WOULD GREATLY APPRECIATE ANY INFO OF ESTIMATED POPULATION OF THIS VARIANT. REPLY THROUGH THE AD SO MY WATCHERS CAN SEE THE INFORMATION AS WELL- THERE SEEMS TO BE A GREAT DEAL OF INTEREST and CURIOSITY SURROUNDING THIS ITEM. -THANK YOU
