No mention of the Anniversary Waltz Part Two Cassette mispress on Discogs. That's coz no one wanted to admit they had it

Talking of mispresses, I bought a Quo cassette single in the early 90's and it contains a different song entirely! They only had one track on them back then and instead of (I think) Anniversary Waltz Part 2, I was blessed with Timmy Mallett singing Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny They had at least 2 tracks on them, the a and b sides. You're probably right. Last time I even looked at a cassette I still had a perm

No mention of the Anniversary Waltz Part Two Cassette mispress on Discogs. Discogs is not a very reliable page. Lots of errors and wrong information. I'm curious mortified That other song was on the two sides or just one? A and B side were the same songs in my tape (but the normal one, Anniversary and Dirty Water)

A and B side were the same songs in my tape (but the normal one, Anniversary and Dirty Water) I can't actually remember and I don't have a cassette player to allow me to check. I don't know why but I have a funny feeling that Timmy Mallett might have been on the B-side but with a different song. Presumably the B-side to his single. I wonder if any Timmy Mallett fans ended up with Quo instead

I wonder if any Timmy Mallett fans ended up with Quo instead From memory, I think what was on the cassette was a whole Timmy Mallet album as opposed to a single. So was Timmy on both sides of the cassette. I can't verify though as I did take my copy back and exchange it the following weekend. Second copy was correct with Anniversary Waltz and Dirty Water on each side.

My box of the 2nd part of the 80s contains a misspressed Red Sky single. The B side is correct, but the A Side was Naughty Lady again. I checked mine and Red Sky is correct, no mispress for me.

The statusquovinyl.net website says that 6 of the sleeves in the 1972-1979 box set are the wrong sleeves for the time period, but I only see 3 that are wrong, Rain, Mystery Song & Wild Side Of Life.

How many copies of each box set were pressed?
