BEATLEJOHN 12th Jun 2019		Vinyl Album The Beatles - With The Beatles	Why is the release of this and the mono release two weeks before the UK issue???.....I suspect it's closer to the date on the white label...John
BEATLEJOHN 2nd Apr 2019		Reel-to-Reel The Beatles - Magical Mystery Tour	Blue Ampex boxes are 1969 re-issues...John
BEATLEJOHN 2nd Apr 2019		Reel-to-Reel The Beatles - Rubber Soul	Blue Ampex boxes are 1969 re-issues....John
BEATLEJOHN 12th Nov 2018		Reel-to-Reel Electric Light Orchestra - Discovery	Issued by Columbia Record Club....John
BEATLEJOHN 12th Nov 2018		Reel-to-Reel Electric Light Orchestra - A New World Record	The CRC designation means this was issued through the Columbia Record Club...I doubt very much if this was issued commercialy...John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Nov 2018		Reel-to-Reel The Beatles - The Beatles [The White Album]	Added alternate hub..(Box was identical)...John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Nov 2018		Reel-to-Reel The Beach Boys - Close Up The Beach Boys	Added alternate "pink" hub..(box was identical).....John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Nov 2018		Playtape The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds	Added later Blue background tape with hang-card blister-pak...John
BEATLEJOHN 20th Oct 2018		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Let It Be	It's still a bootleg!...as weird as it is finding it in Germany!...probably because it was cheap...(they were all over the place, commonly found in major chain stores!)....John
BEATLEJOHN 12th Sep 2018		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Let It Be	You can have all the theories you want....the simple fact is the album went out of print by 1975...and was bootlegged...the album went back in print on Capitol in 1979....the boots satisfied a need during the interim.....unless you bought an imported copy....John
BEATLEJOHN 24th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album The Yardbirds - Little Games	Its not mis-pressed (The DJ copies are true mono)....It was intentional....they just used the same stamper for both pressings....save a few bucks and charge a buck more for the stereo release anyway....besides the US labels knew mono was gone by mid 1968....
BEATLEJOHN 8th Aug 2018		Vinyl Album Simon And Garfunkel - Bookends	Ordway...forgive me for replying that way...but what is scary is there are alternate mixes on US pressings...My friend Steve has a folded down mono copy also...same stampers as my copy with the exception his disc does not have a -1 on side one...
BEATLEJOHN 6th Jul 2018		Vinyl Album Cartoone - Cartoone	More about Cartoone...http://www.rockingscots.co.uk/cartoone.htm............John
BEATLEJOHN 29th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Simon And Garfunkel - Bookends	Okay folks.....found another mono copy (for a quarter!) at a local library book sale....looks like hell, but what the hell..... ordway1440 is speaking the truth!...this copy is mixed for mono!...(in fact the whole album is slightly sped up from the stereo)...Fakin' It (yes it's edited) and At The Zoo are the single mixes!!! The cross fade from "Child" to "America" is quicker...Punky's Dilemma has extra harmony voices not found on the stereo mix...(though "Hazy" seems like a fold down of the stereo mix an not the single mix...in fact this song is as not as loud as the others on the rest of this mono album) here are the matrixes... .Side One: (handwritten) XLP 118885 -2B and An upside down "C"...(with an "A" on the opposite side) Side Two: (handwritten) XLP 118886 -2F and a backwards "C"..(with what looks like a backwards "S" with two backslashes "\\" on the opposite side
BEATLEJOHN 28th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Rolling Stones - Flowers	This is Export Only (also)???...John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Rolling Stones - Flowers	This is Export Only isn't it????..John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Brownsville - Air Special	No leave the yellow area...it proves the point...(it won't be a lead image). John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Rolling Stones - Slow Rollers	Guitar intro....(true stereo also)..John. (has the organ intro ever been on vinyl in the UK?)
BEATLEJOHN 27th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Spinners - The Best Of Spinners	Just noticed that the front cover drawing though not impossible, it is incredibly awkward....that's a left hand on a right handed tone arm....I remember seeing lefties using a turntable with their index finger underneath the tone arm and their pinky facing outward ( not inward and over the tone arm)...I only noticed this because my daughter is left handed and I would see how she deals with things in a right handed household (and world)....John
BEATLEJOHN 21st Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Walker Brothers - Portrait	Refreshed images and added the "Portrait" insert...One of the first UK albums I ever owned...around 1969/70 or so our local Woolworths for some reason had gotten some British Lps and had them on sale for 2 dollars (not that expensive!)...most of them were on the Philips/Fontana labels...(The other common album was the Mindbenders first Lp)....John
BEATLEJOHN 18th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Deep Purple - Shades Of Deep Purple	nicoldo64's labels don't look real...they look like they're from the 80's...and Warner Brothers owned this album then....any thoughts....John
BEATLEJOHN 18th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Tyrannosaurus Rex - (A Beginning)	Thanks edlongus....my copy was useless for images....John
BEATLEJOHN 18th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album We Five [US] - Catch The Wind	Um...err...I'm seeing only We Four????....Ha!....John
BEATLEJOHN 11th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Velvet Underground - Live At Max's Kansas City	Added front cover with promotional sticker, and DJ copy labels......This copy was rescued from WRCM (the back cover had a station stamp) which was Manhattan College's radio station.....John
BEATLEJOHN 8th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Daryl Hall And John Oates - Rock 'N Soul Part 1	RE covers had all the titles on the back (in the correct playing order).....Later album pressings and CD covers (1986?) used the inner sleeve photo as the front cover...John
BEATLEJOHN 7th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Daryl Hall And John Oates - Voices	I remember seeing this cover had an RE-6..!!!....White letters/black letters /embossed black and white cover...not embossed...titles on cover....color cover with a few variations too....John
BEATLEJOHN 7th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album Stevie Nicks - Reflections From The Other Side Of The Mirror	If a record was pressed in a quantity of 10,000 copies $200 seemed a little steep. I checked the Ebay webpage...it's going for 50 to 80 bucks which seems more like it.....John
BEATLEJOHN 7th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Cars - The Cars	Gosh....like it was yesterday...(ulp!)....John
BEATLEJOHN 7th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Vapors - Magnets	Where's Waldo?.....John
BEATLEJOHN 6th Jun 2018		Vinyl Album The Velvet Underground And Nico - The Velvet Underground And Nico	All original release (60s and 70s) cover variations are uploaded now...(because of music publishing variations and pressing plants...not to mention promos...there are a lot more labels to be seen).....
