A40FARINA SUBS 19th Apr 2022		Ooooh, that's grevious.....



7226power SUBS 19th Apr 2022		£1 car boot find on Sunday. A stock copy but unfortunately no push out centre.



MicSmith 10th May 2020		Thanks Mikey Dread. I think that is most likely the source of the 24th May date although I don't have any copies of TNS from 1968 myself. Thanks for confirming that the Decca PR sheet states 10 May 1968. I've never seen a promo sheet for this single (nor any other Genesis singles for that matter except for The Silent Sun) and its inclusion on here would be of interest to many I'm sure.



Mikey Dread 12th Dec 2019		I guess the May 24th release date was sourced from The New Singles (TNS). The Decca PR sheet forA Winter's Tale supports the promo release date of May 10th. Decca PR sheet quote:"A Winter's Tale is a tender and expressive ballad that builds up to a fine climax."



MicSmith 8th Jul 2019		Does anyone know why the release date on here says 24 May 1968? The demo copies say 10 May 1968 and the few reviews that appeared for the single in the UK music papers all appeared in issues from that week (cover dated 11 May 1968). I've not come across anything that points to a two week delay to its appearance. So is this just a mistake or is there a source of information that offers proof?



Dougal 11th Aug 2018		And does that image help scouser14???



Dougal 7th Aug 2018		Here you go scouser14......



scouser14 6th Aug 2018		Does anyone own, or have a scan of the solid centre UK demo version? Also, does anybody know of another example of the black label version, other than the one Dougal mentions?



Billy Two SUBS 14th Apr 2016		Fair enough Dougal, and thanks (to your friend as well) for the addition !! :-)



Dougal 14th Apr 2016		Hi Billy Two, It isn't my copy unfortunately, but it does belong to a good friend of mine and unfortunately it is correct. I say unfortunately as it means there's another incredibly rare version of this already rare single to find!! The label is black or a very dark navy blue. There's a letter in this months Record Collector mag about this very label. I see that there are also black Decca labels of The Rolling Stones 'Satisfaction' single, see: https://www.45cat.com/record/f12220 Cheers



Billy Two SUBS 14th Apr 2016		Black label ? Is this your own copy, Dougal ? Just wondering if it's a result of b/w scanning (apologies for doubting if it is yours !!)...



Dougal 14th Apr 2016		Scans of demo copy with black labels uploaded.



RecordDragon 24th Mar 2016		Both mono versions Dead youtube link removed.



Focus B 24th Mar 2016		Love both sides of this single. Fortunately they're available on the"Rock Roots" LP which isn't difficult to find in their original and proper mono.



theslipperman 18th Mar 2015		I own a perfect copy of the Australian 'A' promo with hard centre of this record. The record is M and the sleeve (only the Decca sleeve) is Ex++. I've been told there are only a couple in the world. If anybody is interested in a scan, i'll send one through to you. I'd be interested to know what the value is, however I'm not currently looking at selling. I've got stacks of other rare Genesis vinyl if anybody is interested in a chat/type one day. :-)



Henry29 9th Nov 2014		Sorry Billy T. Like Mickey D. Says It Will have to be the Tangerine Or a Bag of Nuts. He Is aware of the Site and says It Is a Good Reference. He Is Dropping the Label Scans In Here as Per My Instructions. So a New Entry can be Made and the Scans Moved there. (MODS Discretion). He might not have the Money It does Happen Fingers X. H.



Henry29 9th Nov 2014		Hi RD. Look for this CD "1969 From Genesis to Revelation" You can pick It up Cheap and It has them All on. H.



Billy Two SUBS 9th Nov 2014		Worth a go, H ! I'll start saving now for the next time one comes up...



Mikey Dread 9th Nov 2014		Damn good try, Henry. I guess BT will have to make do with a tangerine in the bottom of his Crimbo stocking. : ) Is Mike a member of 45cat, or is he sending the scans to your good self ?



RecordDragon 9th Nov 2014		Are these tracks available on a reasonably priced CD?



Henry29 9th Nov 2014		Well I did my Best I was Pipped at the Post. It went for. US $3,250.00 a good Price. Mike has Promised Label Scans Before Dispatch. H.



Dougal 7th Nov 2014		Yes, it's Chris Stewart on the far right.



TheJudge 6th Nov 2014		a) Yes b) If you mean the still for AWT, then (l.-r.) Ant Phillips, Mike Rutherford, Tony Banks, Peter Gabriel. I think the figure on the far right is Chris Stewart, the original drummer, although it could be a later shot with John Mayhew. I'm pretty sure it's not John Silver, who was drummer between times.



RecordDragon 6th Nov 2014		Is Peter Gabriel singing lead on both of these tracks? Which person in the "Winter's Tale" video still shot is Peter?



Dougal 6th Nov 2014		Brilliant Henry29, always great to find new Genesis collectors!



Billy Two SUBS 6th Nov 2014		"Keep You're Stocking over the Fireplace I put a Bid On It" Good man, H29 ! I knew I'd be able to rely on someone as cool, dashing and frankly handsome as your good self. I promise to buy you a pint should you come up with the goods :-D



Henry29 6th Nov 2014		Dougal. Yes I have Most of the Singles they have put out From I Like What You have In your Wardrobe. Right Up to Phil's Solo Cd's. I Will Try to win It But At The Moment I am Leading the Pack. Everything Crossed. If I don't I could ask As You Said, For Scans of the Labels. H.



Dougal 6th Nov 2014		I expect this'll go for quite a bit, so good luck. Do you collect Genesis Henry29?



Mikey Dread 6th Nov 2014		Very nice item, H. If you don't win it with the highest bid, you could always ask permission to scan the labels for the site. ;-)



Henry29 6th Nov 2014		Billy Two. Keep You're Stocking over the Fireplace I put a Bid On It. H. Genesis A Winter's Tale (London)



Dougal 5th Nov 2014		You and me both Billy Two! Now this second copy has surfaced, I reckon there maybe more, maybe a few perhaps, here's hoping...........



Billy Two SUBS 5th Nov 2014		If anyone is wondering what I want for christmas, it'sthis.



Dougal 31st May 2012		The A Winter’s Tale promo on the London label was discovered back in March 2009 and has been the subject of many discussions in the Genesis 7” collecting community. So many thanks Billy Two for posting the link to the similar Thin Lizzy release, very interesting. The thing I find strange about the Genesis release in particular is how it eluded the collecting community for the best part of forty years!



Dougal 31st May 2012		Promo, or demonstration, copies of this record exist in both push out centre and full centre versions. The full centre version is extremely rare, I know of three copies, and interestingly the diameter of the full centre vinyl is about 5mm bigger than the more common push out centre version.



VinylSid 8th May 2012		Honest Guv'nor - I found a demo copy of this in a New Cross hedge on my way home from school back in '72. We played frisbee with it in the street before I decide to shove it in my bag and take home for a listen. Though scratched up it still plays OK 40 years later.



Billy Two SUBS 8th May 2012		The London export issue is actually listed in the RCPG 2012, so it's not atotally new find... Though I'd still like one, let's be honest.



Billy Two SUBS 8th May 2012		Seehere for a similar Decca-on-London issue for Thin Lizzy, though apparently three years later - it's even got the same handwritten ACC initials. What was it all about ???



wordnwot 8th May 2012		Then click on News: A Winter's Tale - LONDON!! News section New find! Click



Omnyym 14th Jan 2011		A Winter's Tale
