Toots & the Maytals 'Do The Boogaloo' 7"

Published By: Administrator Date: April, 18 2011 Genre: Reggae

In the build up to last Saturday's Record Store Day we received feedback from numerous fans who for various reasons were unable to journey to a participating store to purchase the Toots & the Maytals 7", released exclusively for the day.

The record was not made available through the Trojan Store as we felt it important to support to those indie stores that regularly rack our product and provide an essential role in the promotion of the popular music as a whole.


We are, however, keenly aware of the concerns of those who have regularly supported Trojan over the years and collect all of the releases in the 7" range, and for this reason a limited number of copies have been held back for sale via the trojanrecords.com store.

Everyone at Trojan we would like to thank both those stores and the regular Trojan buyers for their continued support and hope that this measure provides the fairest solution to a difficult and sensitive situation.

    Some people have complained that some of the Record Store Day shops they went to had no copies. I have noticed that at least one RSD store has auctioned several copies of this despite claiming to have no copies. A little dishonest, they didn't even let their own staff blag them!

    An e-mail was sent out on April 20th from Universal/Trojan stating that there were copies of the Toots single available to mail order. I happened to be on-line when the e-mail came in and ordered a copy immediately (and was psyched to get my hands on this record!).

    However, this morning I received an e-mail from Universal stating that my order had been canceled (and my money refunded). When I checked my account on the Universal website, it stated that the single was sold out! Needless to say, I'm not happy about this turn of events.

    Trojan - Heellloooooo - Where is it?

  7. Posted 19 April 2011 at 18:27:37

    Not much of the 19th left, where is it?

  8. Posted 19 April 2011 at 16:01:27

    No idea, but even if they did I'm not sure that a RSD release would qualify as part of the set (?)

  9. Posted 19 April 2011 at 15:25:42

    Why don't they just give people the option to subscribe to the singles as a set?

    With regard to the comment that the records should be offered to those who’ve previously bought the records online, I have asked the question and the answer is that whilst there is agreement in principle the reality is that it’s not possible as the buyer information is stored by the company that run the store. Apparently they’re not allowed to share buyer information (Due to the 'Data Protection Act' I guess) and do not have the facility to contact those people directly.

    Put me down for one please...

  12. Posted 19 April 2011 at 14:52:41

    Still waiting, odd that they dont seem to hav appeared on the sight yet (?)

  13. Posted 19 April 2011 at 13:43:33

    Maybe they should have been offered by email to people who bought previous 7"s in this series?

  14. Posted 19 April 2011 at 13:42:20

    Soon come?

  15. Posted 19 April 2011 at 13:16:07

    Lots of us seem to be waiting... perhaps they've been and gone...
