The Pooh Sticks Featuring Alan Pt. 2

Alongside a set of single sided 7''s, the self titled Pooh Sticks release also came on a single sided 12'' with an etched B-Side. However, the track-listing sees a little change up, with the debut release 'On Tape' being traded in to the 12'' over '...Alan McGee...' 


The Pooh Sticks - The Pooh Sticks - 1st Press - Fierce Recordings - Single Sided 12'' release 


Back sleeve and etched B-Side 


The inner sleeve comes printed up with a comic that tells the story of Fierce Recordings; the first edition of this record comes in a black and white sleeve... 


The second pressing (shown here) comes in a pink sleeve with an identical insert. The last track also appears behind a locked groove, and I'm not too sure on whether this is true for both pressings... 


Finally we have the test press here, I'm not sure if this originally came in a sleeve of it's own but for now I've photographed it next to the 2nd press sleeve. The test press has a plain white label but an etched B-Side. There's a high chance that this was bought from Hue Pooh, or from someone that worked at Fierce Recordings. Surprisingly they're also not that expensive from previous Discogs sales, they just don't come up for sale very often... 

Another post on that was possible because of Alan's incredible collection. And after two posts in less than 24 hours, if nothing else I am thankful for his collection for bringing me some enthusiasm back in to this blog!
