So, I'm super nerdy and have a computer database that archives all of my CDs and records, and I've been entering in my collection since 2002 (yeah, I have a lot of music). Well, I'm finally getting around to my records, and I came across a strange Travis single that I vaguely remember buying off of eBay, but I can't seem to find any information about it -- and it was years ago that I bought it, so I don't remember what the seller said about it.
It's a white label 12" of "U16 Girls," and it has the same tracklisting as the CD single, except there's absolutely no information on the label (it's just white -- no printing) and the only thing etched into the record is "01 664339 20 1A1" on the A-side, and "01 664339 20 1B1" on the B-side. It's in a black heavyweight paper sleeve, and that's about all I know about it.
I know that there are white label promos of "U16 Girls" that exist, but the catalogue number is different than this one. So, I have no idea what country this is from or if this is some sort of weird ripoff that someone printed up (although I doubt it -- it's kind of an odd thing to attempt to reproduce). I scoured eil.com and gemm.com and musicstack.com and came up with nothing. I'm just baffled.
If anyone has any more info about this, please send me an e-mail at kris.heding@gmail.com (I don't log into the forum that often). I'd really appreciate any info!
Hey Kris,
Long time no see. How are you? Been keeping busy with the FF club, wow. Have you archived your groovy dougie site? You don't even have to update it, I'd love to revisit that stuff. I remember that Behind the Music story was great. Sorry I don't have any info on the U16 Girls single, but I finally found the vinyl last year.
