Marley Marl Featuring McShan* - Marley Marl Scratch Review by kuma.chan Apr 18, 2006 (edited over 3 years ago)

referencing Marley Marl Scratch, 12", NI 1248

The bootleg of this says DJ Shan on it; originals say MC Shan. However there are also originals which say DJ Shan! Check the runout groove for the Sound Makers stamp to check whether its an original or not!

Marley Marl Featuring McShan* - Marley Marl Scratch Lazieexboy Jan 03, 2010

Correct. Supposedly, one of the first runs on the record presses already had an error on the labels showing "Dj Shan". Although, those pressings still have the SoundMakers stamp in the dead wax proving to be an original. This error was corrected immediately, and thus the remainder of the original pressings have "MC Shan" on the label.

As Kuma.chan mentioned, look out for the SoundMakers stamp and F/W etching in the dead wax. This is the one you want.

Any more info is appreciated.
