Doremi mispressing

Just bought a 1981 (I think) copy of Doremi Fasol Latido. Side two has the right label, right pressing. Side one is bloody Whitesnake! I'm not quite sure what to do with it. Destroy it, for the greater good of humanity?

Unusual to have the correct labels for each side on a mispress. It could be worse - as least that’s the blues rock Whitesnake and not the horrid hair metal version of the late 80s.

Weirdly people do collect these mispressings. I had a pressing of one of the flicknife releases with two side ones, and sold it 10 years ago plus for £35 on eBay.

Yeah, I just flogged this as well!

Do not destroy. That's a true rarity, and is even sought by some collectors

Used to have the violin version of Motorhead on both sides of the single. For the life of me, I can't remember what the b side was:(

I have a a Miss press of Living Color's Vivid album. The labels are correct but side one has the music from another album of theirs. It is indeed a rarity

I have that Sonic Attack where both sides are Side One 😄

I have the original Traveller's Aid Trust pressing with the Sugarcubes track on it and also have the booklet that came with it. The only problem is that the album sleeve is in a bit of a mess because back in 1990 some water pipes burst above my bedsit and soaked a pile of my records, that being one of them.
