Promo

What you see here are both the white promo labels and the regular brown stock copies with a "DEMONSTRATION - NOT FOR SALE" stamp on either the a- or b-side. Several different stamps exist. The reason these copies exist, is simple: if the sales rep was out of promo's, he simply stamped a stock to give away, so it couldn't be returned to a store later on. This was normally a job quickly done, without caring about which side was stamped.

ZS6 01049 - Hold Me / Hold Me

- white promo label

- includes notation "DJ RESERVICE" upper right on ONE line; also notice the different letters below the catalogue number: BA-BF instead of AA-AF.

- The owner of this 45 notes that the mix of Hold Me is punchier, with the lead guitar a bit more out in front.
