12" Single
Various Artists - Earcom 2 (1979)
I wonder how Fast were able to include a couple of Joy Division numbers. They are amongst the best tracks the band put out.

Hearing them again 44 years later has re-awakened my interest in the band.

Various Artists - Earcom 1 (1979)
I'm confused. Is The Products - Fresh an additional track on a flexidisc? This is missing from my copy.

12" Single
We Are Going To Eat You - Ride Upon The Tide (1989)
Great outfit who couldn't possibly record a bad song. Could have become the Blondie of the '90s.

12" Single
Daryll-Ann - I Could Never Love You EP (1994)
I picked up a 12" white label demo housed in an incorrect sleeve. Usual black die cut but the sticker on the front is wrong.

Clearly not the record I expected it to be, but checking the inner groove matrix confirms the record above.

What a pleasant surprise. Never heard of this outfit before, but this is rather good!

The Motors - Airport (1978)
Looks like they used up the special labels designed for the debut album and Dancing The Night Away12" on earlier pressings.

Focus B
1st Mar 2022
12" Single
Sp!n - Scratches (In The Sand) (1990)

12" Single

12" Single
Ned's Atomic Dustbin - Happy (1991)
I thought that MM, but the catalogue number and barcode are identical.

I would have thought the barcode at least would have differed had it been a re-issue?

Interestingly this 12" is listed as Sony Soho Square on Discogs, but the images show the same rear sleeve, track order and Furtive labels as the copy I've uploaded here!

12" Single
Top - She's Got All The World (1991)
Sleeve, labels and missing info submitted.

Focus B

12" Single
Cabaret Voltaire - Here To Go (Extended Mix) (1987)
Just picked up a demo white label copy. Has Cabaret Voltaire on the A side, B side label totally blank. No song titles anywhere.

Identified by the inner groove matrix number.

12" Single
Ride - Play (1990)
Picture sleeve uploaded.

Focus B
13th Mar 2021
12" Single
The Brothers Johnson - Strawberry Letter 23 (1977)
Same edited version as the 7"? Not uncommon with some early 12" 45s.

Focus B
25th Feb 2021
12" Single
The Motors - Dancing The Night Away (1977)
I've avoided buying this one as a protest as to why the 12" is an edited version. The album version is 6 minutes so why they've edited 30 seconds out is a mystery.
44 years later curiosity got the better of me. I'm pleased it's reasonably intact as the start and instrumental sections omitted from the 7" are my favourite moments.

12" Single
Kraftwerk - Neon Lights (1978)
Black vinyl copies exist of this too. Reportedly very rare however.

Focus B
22nd Dec 2020
12" Single
Television - Little Johnny Jewel Parts 1 And 2 (1979)
Not an easy one to find nowadays. Having lost my original copy I managed to get an affordable copy recently, albeit with a damaged sleeve. The A side label is poor too, but the condition of the vinyl is very good.
Some front sleeves have a sticker to the right of the group photo, "19 Minutes of music for £1.49".

Hopefully, someone can upload a better condition sleeve and A-side label.

12" Single
Snuff - Flibbiddydibbiddydob (1990)
The tracks not listed on the sleeve are the adverts, that are indeed very short.
Then, had Snuff covered, "Free Bird" it wouldn't have lasted much longer than two minutes!
