TheJudge 7th Feb 2013 | | 12" SingleBlondie - Rapture (Special Disco Mix) (1981) | There seem to be a few of this type of pressing from around that time (see Visage - 'Fade To Grey' for another, although that has 'rpm' on it). Presumably France was where the capacity was to produce them.

TheJudge 2nd Feb 2013 | | 12" SingleGloria Jones - Bring On The Love (Why Can't We Be Friends Again (Vocal)) (1977) | Amended.

TheJudge 30th Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleFirst Offence - Round 'N' Round (Mad Mary Mix) (1991) | They were a sort of sampling/rap outfit from (I think) Liverpool. They did at least one session for Peelie about that time.
|
TheJudge 20th Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleNew Order - Blue Monday (1983) | Mine has MT.2 on the A and MT.1 on the B.

TheJudge 17th Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleVisage - Fade To Grey (1980) | Yep. Too big to scan, and I don't have the time at the moment to try a 'stitch-up' job on it.

The Peel Session version was better than this, but has never been released.

TheJudge 4th Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleVisage - Fade To Grey (1980) | Unusual label on this French pressing (#220365-366) - small area of black plastic at the centre.
|
TheJudge 3rd Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleSonic Assassins - Hawkwind As The Sonic Assassins (1981) | Insert (as described in the Notes above) selling T-shirts added.
|
TheJudge 3rd Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleHawklords - 25 Years (1979) | Something slightly screwy with the B-side scan here - the label's supposed to be the same colour as the A-side.
|
TheJudge 2nd Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleHalf Man Half Biscuit - Dickie Davies Eyes (1986) | Interesting lyrics considering recent 'revelations':
"Down at Stoke Mandeville I bumped into Mr IQ
I said “Hey albino, this is not 1972
Stub out your King Edward and get that small boy off your knee
And melt down your fingerware and get yourself off my TV”
Jim could you fix it for me
To come down and suck out your kidneys?
I’ve got this young brother, you see
Who wants to stay alive to watch Bilko."
(For non-UK catters, Google "Jimmy Savile")

TheJudge 2nd Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleSonic Assassins - Hawkwind As The Sonic Assassins (1981) | Hawkmarty, could you check the release date for this? I think 1981 is more likely.
|
TheJudge 1st Jan 2013 | | 12" SingleJean Michel Jarre - Zoolook Re-mixed Version (1984) | I won this on the Name The Years competition on Dave Nixon's Late Show on Pennine Radio in about 1986!
|
TheJudge 31st Dec 2012 | | 12" SingleHawkwind Zoo - Hurry On Sundown (1981) | Hawkmarty,
I take slight issue with your statement regarding Kings Of Speed. If it's the 'Warrior' take, how do you account for the false start and the feedback? It sounds different to the 'Warrior' version to me.

TheJudge 30th Dec 2012 | | 12" SinglePhil Collins - Don't Let Him Steal Your Heart Away (1983) | But he did write it.
There's quite a good rendition by John Goodsall and Transcendental Medication here.
