|
bobzyeruncle 8th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumRevolver [Liverpool] - Northern Songs | For the benefit of the last three people on Earth that possibly don't know, George Peckham was a member of The Fourmost.
|
bobzyeruncle 8th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumDelaney And Bonnie - The Original Delaney And Bonnie | So did I.
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumJoe Jackson - Look Sharp! | (Baila El) Pure De Papa :laugh:
A literal translation, but I wonder what Spanish speaking record buyers made of it? Loses a bit of sense.
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumJerry Garcia Acoustic Band - Almost Acoustic | Brilliant album!
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumRoss McManus - Sings Elvis Presley's Golden Hits | How much would you care to bet that Declan borrowed his dad's specs in the early days? :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Grateful Dead - The Grateful Dead | Typical of Hassinger's productions, the mono mix is superior.
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumGladys Knight And The Pips - Neither One Of Us | I've got a couple of crackers I'll post (eventually) :wink:
|
bobzyeruncle 7th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Top Of The Pops: Vol. 13 | Anyone know who sang this version of 'Band Of Gold'? Her voice is very familiar, but can't quite place where else I've heard her, outside of TOTP LPs.
|
bobzyeruncle 4th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumGeorge Harrison - Electronic Sound | Listened to at an 'ambient' volume, this album is oddly relaxing. Creates a nice spacey atmosphere, if you're into that sort of thing. :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 4th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumElvis Costello - My Aim Is True | My copy has the matt finish B&W photo on the front and a pink back. Pressed on absolutely hideous noisy recycled vinyl. (Orlake again!)
|
bobzyeruncle 3rd Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - The Beatles' Hottest Hits | Tracklisting isn't dissimilar to A Collection Of Beatles Oldies. Hmmm..
|
bobzyeruncle 1st Apr 2014 | | 78 RPMОркестръ балалаечников Лейбъ гвардiи Литовского полка - Мазурка (Mazurka) / Полька (Polka) | Translated, the label name is, 'Favourite Record".
|
bobzyeruncle 23rd Dec 2013 | | 78 RPMEmmy Destinn - Aïda O Cieli Azzuri (O Skies Of Blue) / Tosca Preghiera--Vissi D'Arte E D'Amore (Prayer--For Love And Art I've Lived) | I can only imagine what three 1911 dollars would be equivalent to in today's money!
|
bobzyeruncle 17th Jun 2013 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - Help! / I'm Down | [YouTube Video]
|
bobzyeruncle 9th Mar 2013 | | 78 RPMThe John Cacavas Ensemble - Western Bridges / The Leatherman | Anyone know why these 'library music' records were 78 rpm? Sound quality purposes?
|
bobzyeruncle 9th Mar 2013 | | 78 RPMStabernack Trio - Ave Maria / Ave Verum | Beautiful label!
|
bobzyeruncle 21st Feb 2013 | | 78 RPMArt And Dotty Todd - Chanson D'Amour (Song Of Love) / Along The Trail With You | Rum ta tum ta tum! (Somebody had to say it.)
|
bobzyeruncle 18th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMMonroe Brothers (Charles and Bill) - You've Got To Walk That Lonesome Valley / God Holds The Future In His Hands | I'd always thought it was inspired by the one line in Frankie Lane's "Rawhide".
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Drifters - Move It / Cha Cha Momma Brown | I'm now hearing Cliff sing the B side in my head. :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMErnest Tubb And Andrews Sisters - Don't Rob Another Man's Castle / I'm Bitin' My Fingernails And Thinking Of You | An astonishingly odd musical pairing. The logic behind it only known to Kapp and Rackmil, I'd guess.
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMNick Todd - At The Hop / I Do | Funny. For years I thought the lyric was "Get your lips wet on a chicken." :laugh:
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMSonny Kendis and His Stork Club Orchestra - A Night At The Stork Club | Definitely not the old standards you hear ageing rock stars croon these days. Macca, Rod, etc.
I've a tendency to sing many of these around the house as I do various chores. (When I'm not swearing about having to do them!)
|
bobzyeruncle 15th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMKing Cole - Nature Boy / Lost April | The tune itself was written about another Californian 'Proto-Hippy' who went by the moniker of Gypsy Boots.
|
bobzyeruncle 14th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMPetula Clark - Where Did My Snowman Go / Anytime Is Tea Time Now | Haven't heard the B side, but it's probably best to hide it from advertising agencies.
They would be using it for microwave ready-meal adverts.
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMDesmond Dekker And The Aces - 007 / El Torro | Rumours keep popping up about EMI/Brigadiers releasing a few Beatles 78s around that time.
If anybody's found one, they're certainly being very quiet about it. :smile:
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMFour Aces Featuring Al Alberts - Love Is A Many Splendored Thing / Shine On Harvest Moon | Would have loved to see this on the 'Art Noveau' label that Brunswick dropped just a few years earlier!
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There / Twist And Shout | Didn't know they still had them on offer. Nice one, Jock_Girl.
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMSonny Kendis and His Stork Club Orchestra - A Night At The Stork Club | Drool, Pt. 2! :laugh:
An instant swanky evening with a couple of Manhattans to hand and a stack of Carmen Cavalleros waiting to be played afterward. I'm a sucker for stuff like this.
|
bobzyeruncle 13th Jan 2013 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - I Saw Her Standing There / Twist And Shout | It was part of a set marketed to vintage jukebox collectors. I seem to remember Elvis' version of "Blue Suede Shoes" (Or was it Carl Perkins?) being in it as well.
