Felonious 8th Jun 2014		Vinyl Album The Beach Boys - The Beach Boys	With thanks to camshaft for original cover scan. Cat # suggests a 1970 release.
Felonious 7th Jun 2014		Vinyl Album Nilsson - Early Years	I think this collection is based on a Tower release Spotlight On Nilsson from 1966. The above Cat # 2003 suggests a 1972 issue.
Felonious 20th May 2014		78 RPM Jerry Lee Lewis - Whole Lotta Shakin' Goin' On / It'll Be Me	This discussion took place under the entry for the 45 RPM release Tony P 9th Mar 2012 Thanks Bill. I knew it is not an easy difference to describe. I have checked my 78's and the latest black and gold London 78 I have is HL8132. bill mann 9th Mar 2012 Yes Tony P, I have 8886 on 78 by Ritchie Valens, 'Bluebirds over the Mountains', the label on this one is the same colours as the 45s ie definite silver and jet black. whereas the normal silver top 78 label is a sort of very very dark brown with a different shade of silver, almost shades of sepia, if you get my drift. The other difference is the old label is shiny, Ritchie's is matt like the 45s Tony P 9th Mar 2012 I will check the number of the latest black and gold London 78 that I have. I used to have a couple of the very last of the London 78's including Keeley Smith (8984). I remember that the label for these was very slightly different. Does anyone else remember this difference? KeithS 9th Mar 2012 Early HL 8000 series 78's continued with the same black labels as the L500's and eventually changed to silver tops. The silver tops then started as "London-American" rather than just London. The design of the 45 label followed a similar pattern but the changes happened much later Maxonian 8th Mar 2012 John Lee Hooker's Too Much Boogie is all black. 78 only of course. David M. McKee 8th Mar 2012 All the London 78s I've seen have been siver tops Maxonian 8th Mar 2012 No, the 78 by the HL 84xx stage would always be silver top. I have elarier 78s bought new at the time with silver top. Only the very early HL80xx seem to be all black. plerner 8th Mar 2012 I may get banished for mentioning this but I've just bought the 78 of this single (fabulous sound quality) and my question is, with a black and silver label quite like (but not the same as) the round centre 45 label pictured above, would my 78 be a later issue, and would there have been an earlier 78 release with a black label (like the tri centre version)? Perhaps one of our London label experts (Mr McKee?) might be able to assist?

Felonious 28th Nov 2013		12" Single Herbie Hancock - Rockit (Long Version)	According to Groovemaster DJ Rockit hit the UK originally as a classic to be worshipped 33 1/3 Columbia Inc 12" Disco Single with that fantastic unprecidented pic sleeve The UK 12" had the bulk standard die cut CBS sleeve with sticker. There was a later 12" Green Rocket pic cover from CBS Holland with a vile megga mix! Rockit is outstanding and timeless as it was THE very first scratch record this was hard core disco-funk. and was standalone and gave us the Robotics moves. TIWY is a Herbie all dayer/club classic and came to the UK firstly as a bulk standard Columbia Inc 33 1/3 12" Disco Single with it's classic pink die cut card sleeve and lush cherry red lips. The Promo version is a white label rather than cherry pink with black text. The UK release came as a 45 12" in pic sleeve and the first batch were limited edition Green vinyl with the standard CBS labels as the paper label 45. Herbie is a jazz leigend and comes from the same moulds as Quincy Jones and Ramsey Lewis ie totally respected of his craft. NOTE: The beautiful US Columbia Inc 33 1/3 12" Disco Singles are just magical and legendary and so much part of these two tracks as those and a continuation of great Jazz-Funk there were a succession of releases that belong in there with these as part of a irrefutable set of 5 and they are Samuel Jonathan Johnson You Keith Barrow Turn It Up Ramsey Lewis Spring High these 5 were big floor fillers for me and I stuck to my US 33 1/3 carbon-black vinyl copies for both sound and classy Image! You can not have Mr H R or TIWY without the above the master has spoken!
