mojofilter 9th Nov 2023		12" Single The Beatles - Now And Then [Red Vinyl] (2023)	Bar code for black vinyl - 602458129526 Bar code for red vinyl - 602458129557 Red vinyl 12" sold in US exclusively by Target department stores. Link on the Buy Here button on Beatles.com leads to the Target page, which says it's out of stock.
mojofilter 17th Dec 2022		12" Single Orleans - Love Takes Time (1979)	Added label scan. Both sides are identical. This is not an extended or remixed version, it's the same as the 7" single on INF-50,006.
mojofilter 18th Jun 2022		12" Single Paul Young - I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down (Special Extended Mix) (1985)	Although it may look like someone finally spelled the composer's surname correctly on "I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down," the listing is wrong on the record. His name was Earl Randle, a well-known, well-regarded and often-covered songwriter from Memphis.
mojofilter 11th Jun 2022		12" Single Wings - Goodnight Tonight (1979)	In the book "Paul McCartney: Recording Sessions 1969-2013" by Luca Perasi, the author describes how Paul announced to Wings that one of them was going to write the B-side of this record over a weekend. They'd introduce their song on Monday. So each member went away to write the B-side and on Monday, "Daytime Nightime Suffering" was what Paul submitted. History has not recorded what anyone else brought to the table, but this beat all of them, hands down.
mojofilter 2nd Jun 2022		12" Single Wings - Maybe I'm Amazed (Mono) (Short Version) (2013)	I'm replying to a comment from 2013, to say that the purpose of this 12" single was to make available in a limited edition the promo edited versions in mono and stereo, the promo mono unedited version, and the stereo stock single unedited version. It is doubtful that any radio station has aired the promo versions since 1977, you could never buy them in any store at the time, and the single has been out of print for at least 35 years as of this writing. This means that there are as-yet unreleased digital remasters of these tracks that could still come out on CD or as digital downloads.
mojofilter 31st May 2022		12" Single Paul McCartney - Ou Est Le Soleil? (1989)	This Italian issue was imported by Capitol of Canada and stickered with an ID tag giving it the Canadian catalogue number of C1 15499, as by the time this record came out, their vinyl plant in Mississauga was closed down for good.
mojofilter 16th Apr 2022		12" Single Paul Young - I'm Gonna Tear Your Playhouse Down (Special Extended Mix) (1985)	Added label scans.
mojofilter 15th Dec 2021		12" Single Daryl Hall And John Oates - I Can't Go For That (No Can Do) (1981)	Added promo labels. The promo also has the catalogue number of JD-12358.
mojofilter 9th Dec 2021		12" Single Julian Lennon - Valotte (1984)	Added clean scans of the front and rear jacket.
mojofilter 6th Dec 2021		12" Single The Doobie Brothers - Real Love (1980)	B-side of the record is blank (no grooves, no printing on label).
mojofilter 20th Jun 2020		12" Single Paul McCartney - Deliverance (1992)	Just when you thought you had all of the guy's records...
mojofilter 6th Dec 2018		12" Single Troiano - We All Need Love (1979)	That there is a promo of this record suggests that there is also a stock copy, but I've never seen one.
mojofilter 21st Aug 2016		12" Single Blotto - Metal Head (1983)	[YouTube Video] Very nice quality video supplied by the band (not taped off TV).
mojofilter 13th Jan 2015		12" Single Bauhaus - Bela Lugosi's Dead (1979)	According to information I read somewhere and entered in its listing in my database, this record exists in versions with and without "Dark Entries" on side 2 following "Boys." Mine has it, and I've never seen another copy to check or find out how to distinguish between them. Does anyone here have a copy with only two songs on the disc? There may be a clue in the dead wax area for the B-side. There would have to have been two different stampers cut. You'd think one of them would have some sort of identifying mark different from the other one.
mojofilter 30th Dec 2014		12" Single Paul McCartney - Stranglehold (1986)	Anyone notice that the A-side is pictured twice?
mojofilter 28th Dec 2014		12" Single Paul McCartney - Press (1986)	This record features the first mixes of "Press" by Hugh Padgham. These were phased out and replaced by new remixes by Bevans and Forward, which became the standard mixes in Paul's catalogue.
mojofilter 23rd May 2014		12" Single The Elton John Band Featuring John Lennon And The Muscle Shoals Horns - I Saw Her Standing There (1981)	With respect to drzbooks, a cleaner, higher resolution front cover scan and labels with all yellow printing (as opposed to yellow and white) were added.
mojofilter 3rd May 2014		12" Single Tim Curry - I Do The Rock (1979)	There is a listing here for a 7" single of "Paradise Garage" b/w "Charge It" in the remixed / edited versions that appear on this 12", issued in Germany on A&M AMS 7655. But I can find no evidence that such a single was released in the US, or anywhere else for that matter. If the Discogs listing is correct, the German 12" of "Paradise Garage" b/w "Charge It" on AMS 12.7655 contains the album versions.
