iambriandammit Posted June 6, 2013 Share Posted June 6, 2013 I picked up a Canadian copy of Immigrant Song b/w Hey Hey What can I Do this weekend at a market. I'm trying to figure out if it's original, or a reissue. It has a red Atlantic label, unlike the 80's reissue that I have that has a gold label. No dates on it, numbered AT. 2777 and credits the writers by first initial, then name. Any thoughts, or anybody know any way of checking if it's an original?

Oleg Posted June 8, 2013 Share Posted June 8, 2013 Do you mean 4 different pressings? Do the numbers change on them? Two of them is first pressing. The difference is, that one has Side A/B and another Side ONE/TWO The next one is repress with W sign. All three are AT 2777 Also I have Golden Standard GS 45847 with small q on label. I don't have Golden Standard without q and I'm seeking it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iambriandammit Posted June 8, 2013 Author Share Posted June 8, 2013 Thanks Oleg. This one is a A/B - no W (yaaa) Also have the Gold Standard with a Q (as in capital Q - is your small letter q?), that I bought off the shelf at HMV in the early 80's. Thanks again, it's great to know what I actually have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Q is in capital. BTW variant with W is much rarer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
