What is the difference?

Started by needsometherapy

Between HAMFC bootleg and a reular one?

Is there such a thing?

A bootleg and an official release?

If someone got some pics that show the difference please say so.

Cheers.

The bootleg has a black and white picture of Michael in full on bass monster riffery pose, whilst the sant gemil is on the back, the official one has the santa gemil on the front.

The sound quality is apparently quite poor when compared to the original, I’ll confirm this after I’ve robbed Hooch’s house…

Original

side 1: gemil santa, with in a curly lettertype “Have A Merry Fucking Christmas”
side 2: “one side: Teenage Kicks (JJ O’Neill)”, “other side: With Or Without You (U2)”
on the 7”: all kinds of info

Bootleg
———-

side 1: gemil santa but with “Have A Merry Fucking Christmas” written in a different lettertype
side 2: picture of Michael (as on the no love lost-bootleg”)
on the 7”: “a/b”, “THERAPY?”, “Teenage Kicks/With or Without you”, “45rpm” and “SC090”

And was the amount of copies the same (1000) for both of them ?

I always though the amount of copies is the same, but the original one is much harder (and more expensive!) to find, so either people are holding on to that one a lot more, or there are more copies of the bootleg after all.

I traded mine with Gie about two years ago..fuck me, that’s gone by quick… and have found it impossible to obtain a replacement bootleg since!

I think there was more of the bootlegs produced, and if I recall correctly they stemmed from Japan..I can’t check my info as Hooch was round mine today and took my ye olde T? cuttings, but I’m sure I’ve got an interview which states that’s where it came from..or maybe my mind is getting fuddled? The main difference is of course that the original was a limited run, whereas the bootleg could simply have been repressed when the first run sold out.
