Hot Thing Promo re-issue Purple Vinyl Released 08 Nov 2024

https://www.juno.co.uk/pr...050400-01/

I posted in another thread that there seemed to be a Hot Thing re-issue coming out, and this appears to confirm it.

Also available (so far) at https://www.cede.ch/de/mu...d=18910753

Who said there wasn’t any releases on the horizon? Can’t wait, so exciting…hmmm!

Edit: I am now confused as after a bit more digging around the internet I’ve spotted another Soul Records release called Hot Thing:

https://www.stylusgroove....3V-CoQVGrd

This may be one of them dubious releases of a live show that was broadcast in Europe, so not an official release.

There’s about 20 of us on here mainly discussing trivial shite, so expecting any releases of significance is likely gone.

I was about to ask who would spend $20-30 on a 12" single of an easily accessible song, but I'm sure plenty of fans will eat this up because it's on colorful vinyl rolleyes

Good to know, but super boring re-release with generic sleeve.

A counterfeit (kind of, since the vinyl is purple and not black?) of a promotional release? Or are they just using some random image from Discogs and the vinyl that will be released in November won't look like that?

In any case, is anybody buying that kind of crap and, if so, why? Just because it's a vinyl? eek This is insane.

does Prince has a drawn-on moustache on this cover foto?

and how over-worked it looks, like it's an AI generated photo,

plus the back photo has some weird photoshopped glasses, or no glasses...

Oh, I see, it's just the Paris 1987 bootleg (call them how you want, they might be technically legal, but they're just unofficial releases). And one of the sites took the image from the actual "Hot Thing" promo from 1987 from Discogs.

My initial question remains: who buys that kind of crap and why? Just because it's a vinyl and they don't know what they're actually buying?
