|
Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumHindu Love Gods - Hindu Love Gods | Shortly after this in early 1991, R.E.M. went out on tour as Bingo Hand Job.
|
Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumHindu Love Gods - Hindu Love Gods | My Giant label copy with the Cat# on the front and back of the sleeve has a different shade of sleeve and is similar to that of the Reprise label release.
|
Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumAlasdair Roberts - Spoils | Have you heard the band Trembling Bells?
|
Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumZappa / Beefheart / Mothers - Bongo Fury | I just thought it was somewhat amusing ref the sacred cow as discussed recently.
No Canada, that's one place I ain't ever bin.
I'd say it's just one of many corker Zappa albums.
24 years since his demise and what've we got as replacement? Ed Sheeran?
It doesn't bare thinking about.

Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) | @ady_lister: I'll add that last sleeve. Great job done on the scans.

Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumZappa / Beefheart / Mothers - Bongo Fury | Printed in USA, Manufactured in Canada = USA release?
|
Apollo59 22nd Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumFrank Zappa And The Mothers Of Invention - Unmitigated Audacity | As none of these songs were performed or any member of the listed personnel being in the band in 1979, what's on this disc from 1979?
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band | @Magic Marmalade: When my friends tell me "Oh I have it downloaded etc", I always reply "well, you ain't got nothin'". I really can't believe that anybody who enjoys music could possibly settle for mp3's. Even the slightly better Flak sounds criminally bad to my ears. Of course, if all you've got is a laptop connected by mini-jack plug to some crumby speakers or one of these dreadful sounding speaker/receiver hubs, what does it it matter, it's all crap and nothing more than a slightly sophisticated child's toy. A few of my friends with this rubbish couldn't even switch my hi-fi sytem on.

Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumThe Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band | @Lee Wrecker: I bought it the day it came out - I also have the supporting In-Shop poster that advertised it. Sound wise - you're right, a decent vinyl copy does blow it away and I remember feeling most disappointed about that. But as a package with the decent booklet and that handy identifier of who's who on the sleeve, it's worth having.
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - Tommy | @BEATLEJOHN: I believe you. I remember reading that Daltrey re-recorded it because he couldn't sing it live in the higher key. Yet my extensive notes that I've been adding to bit by bit for around 20 years don't confirm that he did record it in 1973 - so my memory failure there.
However, I'd be interested to know which version of Tommy this USA (lower key) version maybe found as it wasn't included on the 1996, 2003 or 2013 releases.

Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) | @ady_lister: Have you any idea what the name of the scent is that permeates from the book? I just can't place it and it's bugged me all these years.
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) | @ady_lister: Really nice job. The image at the top is brilliant. 10/10.
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) | @ppint: Thanks for info. I sussed that back at The Beatles entries! Ref Neil - I know his stuff so well I'm on auto pilot for what he didn't write.
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Archives Vol. 1 (1963-1972) | I've been too busy listing to get around to any scanning as yet.
Ref this lot - if you scan that big sticker with a summary of the disc's contents, that's really all this needs, plus the individual sleeves.
I don't think there's sufficient memory space for all 236 pages of the book!

Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Sugar Mountain (Live At Canterbury House 1968) | This was included as a bonus extra in the Blu-ray edition of Archives Vol.1 Box Set
|
Apollo59 21st Aug 2017 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - Tommy | Original pressing with gloss sleeve.
The 1973 repress with matt sleeve has a new 1973 recording of Eyesight For The Blind (The Hawker) sung by Daltrey in a lower key.
|
Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young And The Shocking Pinks - Everybody's Rockin' | @ppint: sorry for my lack of Romulan Star Trek text abilities - but I'd just like to add further to the US industry standards - apparently they didn't like LP's with less than 10 tracks and also with an uneven number of tracks. Of course, this was all back in the 1960's.
|
Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young With Crazy Horse - Americana | On the other hand, as this is a 2012 releases I reckon all that HDCD was water under the bridge and no longer a big deal as the technology was now industry wide as everything's 24-Bit 96 Khz
|
Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young And The Shocking Pinks - Everybody's Rockin' | @leonard: no you can't see any because there aren't any - but you'll just have to take my word for it that the Canada issue does have the same details.
|
Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young With Crazy Horse - Americana | It doesn't actually state that this is an HDCD, but given Neil Young's standards it's probably safe to assume that it is.

Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young And Crazy Horse - Sleeps With Angels | Given that USA releases are exalted sacred cows, it matters not that I bought this in Jakarta, Indonesia.
It would only cause further confusion as the European edition already has such status as being International.
Which no matter how you look at it digs another foot in the grave of the single most bad idea ever manifested in the the record collector's community - that of the International release.

Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young - Under The Covers | Recorded 1970-1993 from both radio broadcasts and bootleg audience recordings
|
Apollo59 20th Aug 2017 | | CD AlbumNeil Young And The Shocking Pinks - Everybody's Rockin' | Hi Lee: Strangely somebody has disowned this since my comment - so I'm now the only owner - so I'll request a change to Canada and keep the cow sacred.
