djraggy 28th Jan 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumMiles Davis - Kind Of Blue | To answer sladesounds' question they already have the next few LPs lined up:
John Coltrane - Blue Train;
Billie Holiday - Lady In Satin;
Charlie Parker - Now's The Time;
Dave Brubeck Quartet - Time Out
|
djraggy 25th Jan 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumMiles Davis - Kind Of Blue | If I were to be honest, the idea behind the collection is a good one - particularly looking forward to the Billie Holiday and Dave Brubeck albums while the John Coltrane LP will be the first time I've heard anything by him.
|
djraggy 15th Dec 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Please Please Me | Nice touch with the peroid-style labels there.
|
djraggy 19th Oct 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumCliff Richard - Rock 'n' Roll Juvenile | I could have sworn this was released in 1979, as "We Don't Talk Anymore" was a number 1 single around that time.
|
djraggy 11th Aug 2015 | | 12" SingleOrchestral Manoeuvres In The Dark - La Femme Accident (7") | The version of "Locomotion" on the free 12" single is a live recording, which incidentally, also appears on the 12" edition of "If You Leave" in the UK
|
djraggy 1st Aug 2015 | | 12" SingleBlack Sabbath - Turn up the Night | The A-side is actually Turn Up The Night.

|
djraggy 4th Jul 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumJapan - Quiet Life | I'd be inclined to put the date as 1982. Any U.K. Fame releases from around 1984 onward would have catalogue numbers starting "FA 41"

|
djraggy 25th Apr 2015 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Motors - The Motors | I've seen labels from other versions where, instead of the title in the usual place, they've used the ink-stamp style logo seen on the sleeve, so I would assume that the LP would still be referred to as "Approved By The Motors" According to other websites, the Swedish release of the album is actually a UK-pressed disc, but the sleeve is printed in Sweden.
|

|
djraggy 22nd Oct 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumElvis Presley - Girl Happy | I wonder if anyone can help - I have a US copy of "Girl Happy", but the "Nipper" logos have been covered up with stickers featuring the RCA "lightning bolt" logo. Any ideas as to the reason behind this?

djraggy 21st Oct 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumHuman League - Hysteria | I remember when the album first came out - one person just looked at the front cover and assumed that it was an obscure dub LP by a Jamaican outfit called "Man Gue".

djraggy 8th Oct 2013 | | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - The Best Of 'Top Of The Pops' 1973 | Is it me, or does the label design look uncannily similar to the Music For Pleasure LP labels?

djraggy 21st Sep 2013 | | Vinyl AlbumRolling Stones - Steel Wheels | I reckon the best way round that would be to quote the label as "Rolling Stones/CBS".
