the aztex - i said move

Still one of the rarest and most sought-after garage 45s. Only 2 (confirmed, not 5 or 6 as was thought!) copies were found a few years ago. Before that, it was virtually unknown except for the one near mint copy owned at the time by Tim Warren, and a vg held by a dealer in New England. One more vg copy has recently surfaced, making a total of 5 copies known. Like The Keggs, The Alarm Clocks and The Chob, this has been widely bootlegged and it's hard to distinguish the copies from the real thing. Unless you ever get a chance to play the real thing, that is. Bootleg copies have BP.194 A plus a squiggle in the deadwax, whereas the original has BP-194-A (note the dashes), and another .BP. initial. Remember, this is the deadwax, not the label. Hear "I Said Move" on BFTG4 LP, and the flip on BFTG5 LP

[myame13]

Just wanted to update. I sold this 45 on ebay for $2400.00

@myame13 : well, how do you now that's an original, and not a copy ? i mean, for example is there a way to tell me the matrix numbers, or anything that can identify a copy, or a real one ? thanks.

@binarykult It was in a collection of about 200 that I purchased for $20. It has the BP-104-A 'BP' in the Deadwax. I have requested an appraisal from Jeffery Osbourne LTD just to verify it is the real thing but it seems that it is so.

@myame13 : please read ! (from the G45 website - line 13 - finerecordingstudio website) : this has been widely bootlegged and it's hard to distinguish the copies from the real thing.

Bootleg copies have BP.194 A plus a squiggle in the deadwax, whereas the original has BP-194-A (note the dashes), and another .BP. initial. Remember, this is the deadwax, not the label.

Hope your one is not a bootleg ;)
