OldMod67 10th May 2020		12" Single The Chills - I Love My Leather Jacket (1986)	I know it was a double 'A' side, but the labels are on wrong sides of my copy. Not sure how many were pressed....
OldMod67 10th May 2020		12" Single 14 Iced Bears - Balloon Song (1987)	Just plucked this out of an old record box (at random). Got this whilst working at an independent shop in '87. The picture cover has no overall title, although Frank is in the upper left. I got It for Balloon Song, which John Peel had played and assumed it to be that. It seems to be listed elsewhere as The Importance of Being Frank EP. This is indeed part of the label text, although a previous 7" also had this on. With that in mind I've left the overall title blank for now. 'A' side run out : SOME SHANDY TALKING 'B' side run out : I CAN'T REMEMBER WHAT DOMINIC WANTED
OldMod67 10th May 2020		12" Single John's Children - Midsummer Night's Scene (1988)	MPO pressing, 45rpm Run out lists cat.no. as PABLO 59 Sleeve front and rear lists title as Midsummers Night's Scene
OldMod67 9th May 2020		12" Single The Times - Boys About Town (1985)	'Victim' dedicated to Dirk Bogarde (1961) Side One run out : WELCOME THE SPRING COLLECTION Side Two run out : PAUL, THE HAPPIEST DAYS OF YOUR LIFE ARE NOW.
OldMod67 8th May 2020		12" Single Direct Hits - The Modesty Blaise Sessions (1986)	'A' side run out : THE RETURN OF THE BEAST 'B' side run out : AND NOW GOODBYE AND GOOD RIDDANCE MPO pressing Release date from Direct Hits website
OldMod67 8th May 2020		12" Single Direct Hits - Snakes And Ladders (1987)	'A' side run out : R.I.P DHM 1.10.84 - 1.3.87 'B' side run out: POP ART DESIGN 228 - 5840 ARTWORK / PRINTING THE BUCKMASTER STOPS HERE MPO pressing Release date from Direct Hits website

OldMod67 19th Mar 2020		12" Single The Playn Jayn - I Love You Like I Love Myself (1985)	Oh, track A1 is the long version! Looks like a mod has merged my entry and SettingSon's duplicate from a few days back, but keeping his extra info. Thanks. OM67 14.5.20
OldMod67 22nd Apr 2019		12" Single Japan - Ghosts (1982)	Both 7" & 12" came out around March 1982, not '81.
OldMod67 30th Mar 2019		12" Single Squire - Every Trick (In The Book Of Love) 12" Elastric- Mix (1983)	My son's just got the vinyl reissue of Squire's Singles Album (the only Squire record I didn't buy as I had the singles! Much regretted..) and in the notes it mentioned the cancelled 7" which I knew about, but what I didn't know was that some promos were pressed for radio stations. I've never come across one for sale and wondered if anyone had ever seen one of these?
OldMod67 1st Aug 2018		12" Single The Jesus And Mary Chain - Sidewalking (Extended Version) (1988)	This black label edition was given as a promo (instead of a white label) Some apparently came with a flyer, although mine came straight from the rep,minus a flyer but in a special stiff paper 'sidewalkin' bag.
