Apollo59 23rd May 2017		CD Album The Jimi Hendrix Experience - BBC Sessions	The version of Hey Joe on CD 1 Track 15 is the complete version. The version on CD 2 Track 11 is an edited fade-out version of the exact same take.
Apollo59 22nd May 2017		CD Album Jimi Hendrix - Jimi By Himself	Gypsy Eyes is a different song entirely from the title on Electric Ladyland

Apollo59 21st May 2017		CD Single Eric Clapton - My Father's Eyes	It isn't if using barcodes as the search tool! My entry looks to me to be more accurate
Apollo59 20th May 2017		CD Album Help Yourself - Strange Affair \| The Return Of Ken Whaley \| Happy Days	Blimey, just the two of us for this and the other 2 album one? There's no accounting for good taste is there!
Apollo59 20th May 2017		CD Album Hawkwind - Master Of The Universe	Which just about sums Castle up as many of their releases are lacking in any details.
Apollo59 19th May 2017		CD Album Hawkwind - Master Of The Universe	Thank you, Magic Marmalade.
Apollo59 19th May 2017		CD Album Roy Harper - Sophisticated Beggar	I'm afraid it does - absent, MIA, deleted from history
Apollo59 19th May 2017		CD Album Hawkwind - Master Of The Universe	This is where ready access to the Notes section would be helpful as this is actually quite an interesting compilation. Pity the original uploader didn't have a clue what they were holding in their hands. Trx 1,2,14,17: Live Nov 1982 Trk 3: Alternate version, Olympic Studios Jan 1975 Trx 4,5,7: Live at Brixton 30 Dec 1972 Trk 6: Rockfield Studios 1982 Trx 8,13: Rockfield Studios as Hawklords Trk 9: Live Dec 1979 Trk 10: Rockfield Studios Jan 1977 Trk 11: Live at Stonehenge 21 June 1977 Trk 12: Top Gear, BBC Radio 1, 18 Aug 1970 Trk 15: Live USA March 1978 Trk 16: Studio 1967 as Famous Cure
Apollo59 13th May 2017		CD Album Genesis - ...And Then There Were Three...	These first CD releases on Charisma/Virgin didn't sound too good at all, a lot of definition lost and very flat and murky, particularly with all the 1970's era albums. The later SACD remasters are superb and stuff that had been buried in the mix on the original albums comes up front. Probably also a lot to do with the fact that the original albums often ran to over 50 minutes, which would cause severe compromises. I kept this remaster because the mix is excellent. Sold off all the others when I bought the SACD box sets.
Apollo59 10th May 2017		CD Album Paul Kossoff - Koss	Trx 8,9,10: Outtakes from 'The Band Plays On' album sessions
Apollo59 9th May 2017		CD Album Free - Fire And Water (Deluxe Edition)	Fraser with an S
Apollo59 9th May 2017		CD Album Aretha Franklin - The Very Best Of	It's a real pity that Franklin's vocals were so poorly recorded.
Apollo59 9th May 2017		CD Album Foreigner - Jukebox Heroes	Cat # 632 209 isn't on the reverse of my disc On the reverse of disc are 3 codes 1. FOREIGNER #4 2. FPI 3075 3. IFPI L173 (in extremely small print)
Apollo59 9th May 2017		CD Album Foreigner - The Definitive (25th Anniversary Edition)	No idea where I got this rubbish - never played it.
Apollo59 6th May 2017		CD Album Fairport Convention - Rising For The Moon [De Luxe Edition]	... except that the downright mediocre and as boring-as-watching-paint-dry Trevor Lucas is all over it.
Apollo59 5th May 2017		CD Album Emerson, Lake And Palmer - Emerson, Lake And Palmer	Booklet Back is for the 2004 Sanctuary Midline re-release
Apollo59 28th Apr 2017		CD Album The Beatles - Twist And Shout	mojofilter: is that AM, as in medium wave, which was mono...I'll get my coat 8-)

Apollo59 23rd Apr 2017		CD Album Archive - Londinium	1967 era oil lamp projectors, as featured on front sleeve, loaned by Pink Floyd.
Apollo59 23rd Apr 2017		CD Album Buffalo Springfield - Box Set	Ok addy - I can appreciate your concern. But...I would say in my defense (if I've any left) that I DID compare like-for-like and heard a difference. I don't think I was mistaken, however, there's only so much they can do with with these old tapes. And also there's the fact that both Spin and Discogs make claim contrary to your view - not forgetting that you have admitted to not actually having heard the new version, which kinda loses your argument a few brownie points. I also simply replied to the points that you had raised and you'll find that I did not stray into new territory for the sake of my own salvation. I would also hesitate in thinking people are going to rush to flog their original issue, just like that. As for a £90 valuation, do you sell houses for a living? Which equates to £75 for a what? a larger book. I think Genesis Publications would hire you - you've got the necessary sales patter. Valuations are as you know are an extremely subjective from-to and personally I'm not interested in what anything's worth - until I'm selling it; and having run a 2nd hand shop selling thousands on-line, I'm pretty clued-up on the Vinyl/CD world on that score. A mere by-stander not actually involved will be perplexed at the extremities employed by many would-be sellers, as there's absolutely no justification for some of the prices as advertised other than cold calculated greed. And I could list many 'respected' sellers who thrive upon that plateau. There's one with a short name containing two vowels, whom doesn't actually play the records before grading, nor cleans them, and by using the most attractive and appealing descriptive flowery language ever witnessed, cleans up. They didn't with me, as I sent the last two items back for refund. They were in a disgraceful state, despite being graded 'near mint'. Aye, right, like I came up the Clyde in a banana boat. I haven't got to my Vinyl yet, maybe in about a year or so judging by my progress so far. Other than that ady, it's all good, I'm not a huff-taker or grudge-maker. But...as for that cruddy R&R Hall of Fame...give me a break. It's THE most corrupt, biased, cocaine-addled load of crock that ever reared it's ugly head. And I'd cite the fact that just last year (as I remember) was when they finally admitted Deep Purple, who were certainly one of the biggest draws in USA in the 70's, selling warehouses of records. I very much doubt the likes of Hawkwind will ever see their stage, something to do with a lack of Gucci attire, shampoo and platinum teeth. Yes, Bruce & Bono, I'm talkin' to you! Don't be a stranger, see you around.
Apollo59 22nd Apr 2017		CD Album Bob Dylan - Street Legal	Trk 1: Changing Of The Guards has a 30 second extended coda not previously heard.
Apollo59 22nd Apr 2017		CD Album George Harrison - Completed Rarities Vol. 2	Ha! TopPopper - well spotted.. Unfortunately the original poster didn't complete the title - it's Let It Be Me by the Everly Brothers. George & Jeff acoustic jam on Rockline Radio KLOS, LA, 10th Feb 1988. Had I uploaded, I'd have listed the details that aren't on the sleeve - one of the drawbacks of this here system. Have requested correction.
Apollo59 22nd Apr 2017		CD Album Bob Dylan - The Bootleg Series Vol. 5: Live 1975	Major oversight by Columbia by not including the tour's opening song - When I Paint My Masterpiece, or the show closer - This Land Is Your Land.
Apollo59 22nd Apr 2017		CD Album Bob Dylan - Tell It Like It Is	Dylan with Guam - his band of revolving members, 11 shows into The Rolling Thunder Revue Tour Soundboard Recording
Apollo59 22nd Apr 2017		CD Album Buffalo Springfield - Box Set	ady - did you forget about your own comment made where you stated, quote: "You seem to make a disparaging point for me actually having had enough money to be able to buy the original version, which is just plain ridiculous." Only you will know the reasons behind that one, as I for one certainly cannot fathom it. But thanks all the same as it made me laugh, and some. No, I haven't quite had the time to peruse your own personal collection as yet, being somewhat busy making entries of my own. But there again, if you're so hung-up on the likes of BS, need I bother? Yes, I am acquainted with Spin's Steve via the phone, chasing him up on my never-arriving orders. I cashed in all my points with my last order and doubt I'll return in a hurry. Eight years of good business I gave that guy when I'd buy on-line as I lived abroad for 6 of them and he blew it. I reckon I put a couple of grand his way. But I would suggest that you don't dismiss these Radio Broadcasts too quickly as with just one exception out of a dozen or so that I've bought, none too shabby actually. The artwork is of the least interest to me. The high street shops sell them too, at least HMV and Fopp. As for the tech format list, I suppose it depends what's available by whomever one listens to as the high-end format options are somewhat scarce on the ground. I've actually only seen one title on Blue-spec CD2 that I'd be interested in so far, and as I've already bought the album twice before, I can wait until UK catches up with Japan. But seriously ady, you're becoming a royal pain in the ass here, and seem to want to make a mountain out of a one-liner comment that I had made about one item. I even said in black and white, OK, I'll take your word for it. It's taken, and some. Meanwhile, I've another 6,000 items to wade through, so kindly get a life. Cheers 8-)
Apollo59 21st Apr 2017		CD Album Bob Dylan - New Morning	Fairly certain this was released in 1991 upon the 2nd phase of CD releases that started in 1989
