Oh and nathan, I think youl find Global, Paradice is already on one of the earlier Knights, cos I used to av it. Its not the best version though, ...refer to B)above,.......I belive thats what everyones after.,.............but I'm prepared for someone to supercede my knowledge here, as normally happens,lol

[Dj Ben Fisher]

(Going back a few posts) How much is that vinyl lathe at HTFR?. Hmmmn. Pressing up mi own retro collections in album format sounds good. Less than £300? I verymuch doubt it!!!.
Pianoman has been going at least during 1992, btw - but not necessarily under that name . It must not be him afterallz...

[DJFANTAZIA]

Yeah Sirius, I think £300 is a bit optomistic for a vinyl lathe, the one I'm saving up for, soon to be released at HTFR, is between£1800 and £2500, (theyve not decided what they are going to charge for it yet, no doubt they will opt for the higher pric, lol at the public!)

Its the one that mounts a Technics SL 1200/1210 and therefore is significantly cheaper than the other, all in one, cutter on the market, which is about £4500.

This hobby gets more expensive everyday!

Can I just say I don't agree with any of this thread. IMO the guys who produce "knights" are a bunch of robbin' fukkers.....

I don't mind bootlegs when the tracks are so rare that you've no chance of buying em (like the Q-Words bootleg). But half the tunes mentioned in this thread can be purchased with a bit of patience and a tenner spare (as wth most of the Knights stuff when they put em out)

The bootleggers are stealing from everyone from the artist down (including the silly fukkers that pay for a shite quality rip of what's more than likely the wrong mix)

IMO if yer objective isn't the original yer not a real tune spotter. I don't mind peeps buying a short term solution to summat that proves a fukker to find, but being "happy" with yer purchase and ending yer quest for the vinyl makes you a big girls blouse in my tune spotting manual....

i purchased 1-10 in my younger days
(i'd never found vinylexchange/record fairs/oxfam/carboot sales
and ebay, not to mention gemm netsounds etc,,,,,,,,,

i now own 2/3 copies of each track

and from the first ever one

5 kingbee's
and 5 young mc's

hows that for put right a wrong

[bob_skipton]

I too have purchased a few of the knights, only about 5 though, just enough to realise how shite they are......

if the mixes aren't the best version, then it's the quality, and if it's not the quality of the sound of the press, it's the quality of the press itself, most of mine have too big a hole in the centre.....

shite......

I haven't been collecting that long, but now endevaour to look for originals always......there's nothing more satisfying than finding a rarity in all it's original glory......

Also this can potentially de-value the originals, but I suppose only to the people who don't know their arses from their elbows.....

Good point VA

Bob

[ste huxley]

Theres nowt like the original press of a tune over a booty or a Knights/King Arthurs/Sir Poncy Lancalot or whatever lol

Theres always some other mix or bonus beat/acappella that you can use for mixing, not forgetting the best mix of course!!

I do occasionally buy a booty only when I cannot get the original for love nor money, altho I'll still be looking for the original, which I'll probs get in the end!

Last but not least it is most satifying to have the orignal press in your collection. That matters most to serious record collectors/DJ's

Cheers

[whatyadoinsucka]

i was very please with my

bootleg of corina 'temptation', technoage 'movin on',
house corp 'i know i can do it' , and TNT 'i kill love'
(a good pressing)

but the originals sound so much better

plus corina has got the synthaccapella/ dark beats

and technoage has got the instrumental and 3 mixes of fixation (which samp movin on' all the way through)

tnt another decent mix on it.


Every bootleg i own i now have the original

apart from

parra dice 'can u hear me'
bit machine feat daisy dee 'alright'
and espiral 'dunne' (pic cover)

and i'll definately buy these if i ever bastard see them
what ever the price, in the window (wrc)

(if you got these for sale i'll pay serious money)

Parradice is on one of the 12s on the Retro Volume 1 album - I know it's not the original but at least it's a bona fide release and the quality is A1. It'll set you back £12 from HMV of all places.
