GimmeVinyl 12th Feb 2023 | | 78 RPMPete Johnson And Albert Ammons - Sixth Avenue Express / Pine Creek | Looking for the Indianapolis 1943 repress of this to complete a second "8 To The Bar" set that I have.
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Feb 2023 | | 78 RPMPaul Wynn - Noses Run In My Family / Tattooed Lady | I'm wondering if the B-side is actually "Lydia the Tattooed Lady", as made famous by Groucho Marx.
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Feb 2023 | | 78 RPMPaul Wynn - Automobile Song / Shaving Cream | I have also seen notations that this record was released in 1946..

GimmeVinyl 1st Feb 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - 1967-1970 [The Blue Album] | Who is this "Strakley" bloke?
|
GimmeVinyl 30th Jan 2023 | | 78 RPMDean Martin - Go Go Go Go / Luna Mezzo Mare | I'd seen the promo 78 had sold for $100...
"Go Go Go Go" is a pretty cool tune with big band backing by Dick Stabile.

GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - 1962-1966 [The Red Album] | If you have the Canadian pressings of the 62-66 LP on the Apple label, they should be added to the 1973 release of this LP, as there isn't any yet! Personally, I haven't the slightest idea of whether the Canadian Apple red album labels have any differences as compared to the US '73 Apple release. What you may want to try, is comparing the fonts of the US LP scans to what you have. Even the small matrix numbers may be in a different font.

GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Rock N Roll Music | "You Can't Do This"? I'm pretty sure that the label states "You Can't Do That"..
|
GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Revolver | So... This doesn't have the silly orange label that the ST-2576 Canadian issue has...
|
GimmeVinyl 24th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Hey Jude! | I own a copy of The Beatles In Italy on Parlophone.. and I had the same problem of identifying exactly what country it was from... The label looked like the Italian pressing, but was entirely in English, not Italian. One of the members on this site pointed out what it was!
|
GimmeVinyl 23rd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band | My Dad bought me one of these for my birthday back in '78.. it's one of those things that, with hindsight being 20/20, should have been put away unopened... But nah... Me and my friends played the hell out of it, and got all scratched up. When Capitol made the disclaimer that this may not sound as well as the standard Capitol issue, they were absolutely right!
|
GimmeVinyl 23rd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumTed Heath And His Music - All Time Top Twelve | Even though this LP was pressed in 1958, it is a very clean pressing, almost near mint in my opinion... and plays as if it were a brand new LP. The recording sounds impressive .. still sounds modern even today.
|
GimmeVinyl 22nd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - The Beatles | Shouldn't these labels be added to the South Korea 1989 EMI release?
|
GimmeVinyl 22nd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - The Beatles [The White Album] | Orange Capitol Beatles LPs just never looked right to me... The ones I did have were replaced with the Parlophone reissues with one exception..my Hey Jude LP is an orange Capitol pressing. I figured that I'd keep at least one orange Capitol..
|
GimmeVinyl 22nd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - 1962-1966 [The Red Album] | Ok .. how about a blue Side Two..
|
GimmeVinyl 22nd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - 1967-1970 [The Blue Album] | This LP definitely deserves a revisiting by me, as I haven't played it in a long long time. Just recently, I've discovered a 'burned' CD of this compilation a friend had given me some time back, and I've been playing it on the car... And at least 75 percent of the tracks are in mono, and I can't remember for the life of me whether or not the original LP is the same way...
|
GimmeVinyl 18th Jan 2023 | | CD AlbumThe Beatles - 1967-1970 [The Blue Album] | I've recently come across a copy of this that a friend of mine "burned" for me several years ago, so I started playing it in the car... and I'll swear that well over half of the tunes on both discs are in mono... Are my ears deceiving me, or is it in mono? I have the vinyl '73 US LP, and although I cannot swear to it at the moment, I believe that is in stereo .

GimmeVinyl 11th Dec 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Supremes - The Supremes Greatest Hits | Now this looks like a German Odeon pressing.
|
GimmeVinyl 11th Dec 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Supremes - More Hits By The Supremes | Interesting.. the label states made by Pathe' Marconi in France
|
GimmeVinyl 9th Dec 2022 | | 78 RPMGene Autry And The Pinafores - Rudolph, The Red-Nosed Reindeer / If It Doesn't Snow On Christmas | Hmm... The two promotional labels. They belong with the 38610 listing, not the MJV 56 listing.
|
GimmeVinyl 5th Dec 2022 | | 78 RPMSteve Gibson And The Redcaps - Wedding Bells Are Breaking Up That Old Gang Of Mine / I'd Love To Live A Llifetime For You | These plastic releases by Mercury are certainly making me very curious... This one (from what I've seen) seems to be the first, and the last one I'd seen is from June, 1951. The 1948 pressings all say "not to be sold" .. by 1949, this seems no longer to be the case. Was this an experiment with vinyl by Mercury? We do know that all of the V-Discs, (except early Columbia pressings) were vinyl.. but given the late date of Mercury's inception in 1945, they may have been excluded from the V-Disc program. Were these vinyl Mercury pressings meant for jukebox/radio play?
|
GimmeVinyl 2nd Dec 2022 | | 78 RPMJerry Butler And The Impressions - For Your Precious Love / Sweet Was The Wine | Hmm... So this was pressed on the Falcon and Abner labels... But not a Vee Jay 78? Or perhaps no one has yet to come across one?
|
GimmeVinyl 22nd Nov 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumRay Charles - Ray Charles | These were all Swing Time recordings?
|
GimmeVinyl 20th Nov 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumArtie Shaw And His Orchestra - Reissued By Request | This seems to be the '66-'67 reissue label.
|
GimmeVinyl 20th Nov 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Supremes - More Hits By The Supremes | Has anyone in the last 57 years ever wonder why "Ask Any Girl" is on both the "Where Did Our Love Go" LP, as well as this LP? Not that it's a bad song, mind you... It's one of my favorite LP/B side single tunes recorded by The Supremes.
|
GimmeVinyl 17th Nov 2022 | | 78 RPMGene Autry - Frosty The Snow Man / When Santa Claus Gets Your Letter | Nonbreakable... 78 rpm? Are these vinyl pressings or molded in styrene?
|
GimmeVinyl 1st Nov 2022 | | 78 RPMJulie London - Cry Me A River / S'Wonderful | Hard to say, about residuals that is. Bobby Troup wrote "Route 66" way back in 1946, and there must be a couple hundred covers of that tune alone... Julie started her career, in film and as a pin up girl in 1944... She didn't start recording until 1955 for Liberty, and released 32 LPs up till 1969. I don't know when Julie and Bobby met.. it was before she started recording. Julie was previously married to "Just the facts, ma'am." Jack Webb from 1947 till 1954. Bobby and Julie married in 1959, and stayed married till Bobby's death in 1999.

GimmeVinyl 28th Oct 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumNat "King" Cole - Sings For Two In Love | The two that state "high fidelity" are 1957 Scranton pressings.
|
GimmeVinyl 28th Oct 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumRay Anthony - The Young Man WIth The Horn | I'm putting it out here for conjecture... That this is a pressing made after September, 1953... As the words "microgroove" and the circle with the "33" are missing from the bottom of the label.
|
GimmeVinyl 28th Oct 2022 | | 78 RPMRay Charles - (Night Time Is) The Right Time / Tell All The World About You | And now we would like to do... A number featuring The Raylettes.. The Night Time Is The Right Time.. and Miss Margie Hendricks will help us out on vocals. The Night Time Is The Right Time. Here tis...

GimmeVinyl 26th Oct 2022 | | 78 RPMThe Supremes - Baby Love / Ask Any Girl | No freakin' way.... A Supremes 78??? I got to find one of these!!
