GimmeVinyl 15th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumBobby Rydell - Chubby Checker | If anything, the track Your Hits And Mine was worth purchasing this LP. Sure, there's other tunes on here that are worth a listen, but Chubby did a pretty good job singing Bobby's tunes.

GimmeVinyl 12th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - The Rolling Stones | Say, Magic Marmalade... You'll have to show me that trick of fixing skipping grooves.. I have a copy of Motown Collection Of 16 Big Hits Vol. 5 in mono.. MT-651. There's a skip on the second track on the A side..Marvin Gaye's How Sweet It Is... What magnification did you use? I have my trusty X-Acto knife with a fresh #11 blade..

GimmeVinyl 12th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Collection Of 16 Big Hits Vol. 5 | Also in stereo, MS-651...

GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Moody Blues - Days Of Future Passed | I really couldn't imagine listening to this LP in mono.. although my Scott 299D does have a mono setting...
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Moody Blues - Days Of Future Passed | I just picked up a copy of this.. jacket isn't too shabby.. vinyl in gorgeous shape! The label is the first set.. without writer credits. An original pressing?? Not bad for $7!!! Playing Tuesday Afternoon...omg, this sounds awesome! No clicks, no pops.. wow....this LP will be 52 years old?
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Help! | Ok.. take a look at my pics.. mine states MADE IN EU.. there was a little sticker proclaiming Made In Germany.. is my copy the UK release? This one does have me scratching my head.. because the jacket states Digital remaster copyright 2009.. also copyright 2012 EMI Records Ltd.. not Capitol Records. Also, there's no listing for this particular issue under the UK Parlophone listings...and it's not the 2017 DeAgnostini release. Does my copy warrant a new listing?
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Rubber Soul | Pics of the latest issue pressing.. notice the cat number has been shortened.
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Help! | Just bought this today..she's on the turntable as I write this. Pics of the new label as soon as the B side is over! I broke down and bought this because I missed out on a very clean UK Help in mono...grrr .. and yes, it was an original '65 pressing.. and not a 66-69 repress. You can tell by the song list font.
|
GimmeVinyl 10th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - The Early Beatles | Ok... So I was at my local record store.. and came across two copies of the "Early Beatles" LP. One, on the Apple label, was super clean, and priced at $22.99. the other, was still factory sealed in the cellophane. The jackets of the two LPs were identical.. but.. how can you tell if it's an Apple release, or an orange Capitol, or a earlier green Capitol, or a later purple Capitol? Personally, I'm not going to plunk down $29.99 for an orange label Capitol..

GimmeVinyl 9th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Rarities | Oh boy... Did I get a right laugh!! This LP.. used, mind you.. is selling for $45-57 on Amazon.. a "new".. supposedly.. copy is listing at.. $119-200??? It's sealed.. yet there's pics of the LP? Huh!

GimmeVinyl 8th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Yardbirds - The Yardbirds Collection | I have this! Let me snap some pics...
|
GimmeVinyl 8th Jan 2020 |  | TVThe Price Is Right [1972-present] (1972 - Now) | The earlier The Price Is Right featured Bill Cullen as the host/MC.
|
GimmeVinyl 8th Jan 2020 |  | TVThis Is Tom Jones (1969 - 1971) | Having trouble finding an image of the program opening sequence that isn't an album jacket of the same name.
|
GimmeVinyl 8th Jan 2020 |  | TVYou Bet Your Life (1950 - 1961) | Brought to you by your DeSoto dealers.. Not only did Groucho make a pretty good living by this time, doing You Bet Your Life on both TV and radio.. Chrysler Corporation gave him 2 new DeSotos every year..
Contestant: "I work for the Thor Corporation, Groucho.." Groucho: "Oh? Who are they Thor at?"
|
GimmeVinyl 8th Jan 2020 |  | TVThe Tonight Show (1954 - Now) | Ok.. during 1962, between the time Jack Paar left the show, and Johnny Carson finally took the helm, one of the guest hosts that did several shows was Groucho Marx... Oh, I would have loved to have seen that...
|
GimmeVinyl 6th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumRedd Foxx - The Both Sides Of Redd Foxx | You can go ahead and laugh if you want to... People won't be able to see you on the record..
|
GimmeVinyl 6th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumDon Bexley With Dave Turner - Laff Of The Party Volume 8 | Man... I'd love to hear this!
|
GimmeVinyl 6th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - WKNR Oldies But Goodies | This is the first of at least 4 of oldies but goodies LPs that AM 1310 WKNR Detroit put out in the mid to late 60s. A little checking may be in order, but these LPs may have been packaged and pressed by Original Sound record label. The font and the song layout on the bottom of the back side of the jacket is highly reminiscent of their oldies but goodies series of LPs.
|
GimmeVinyl 6th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumSonny Boy Williamson [II] - The Real Folk Blues | I "borrowed" the scans from somewhere else.. sorry if they aren't as clear as my usual pics...
|
GimmeVinyl 5th Jan 2020 |  | BookRichard Barnes - The Who Maximum R&B | Ok! I have a copy of this.. I own the fifth edition, now printed by Plexus publishing, with a new ISBN 10-085965351X number, published in 2004. Since it's basically the same book, I see no reason to make a new entry for this. No flexi disc in this issue, so I feel a little robbed...
|
GimmeVinyl 5th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Help! | I'd seen a copy of Help in mono on Parlophone at a local record store here in Michigan.. pretty clean shape. I find it just a little hard for me to pull the trigger on this one, at $29.95.. even though I'd prefer this over the US Capitol pressing in Stereo. What year did Parlophone phase out this mono release?
|
GimmeVinyl 5th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Please Please Me | Hmm.. having trouble finding this at the local record stores.. I may have to settle for the Capitol Early Beatles LP... Even though it's missing Misery.. I have There's A Place.. the B side of the Tollie single of Twist And Shout.. and of course I Saw Her Standing There. I'd even settle for a bootleg copy of the Vee Jay Introducing The Beatles...
|
GimmeVinyl 4th Jan 2020 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Revolver | Splendid, Lee Wrecker! Now, if someone would do the same for the US 2012 release of With The Beatles on Parlophone... I'm planning to pick up a new copy of Rubber Soul soon, and pretty sure that LPs cat number has been shortened as well..
|
GimmeVinyl 4th Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMBobby Wayne - Let Me In / Wild Card | Yes.. I made a new entry after seeing my mistake. I've noticed a couple of US London pressings that use the same dark blue label color as the UK pressing. You have to look close at the label to spot the differences

GimmeVinyl 4th Jan 2020 |  | BookMark Lewisohn - The Complete Beatles Recording Sessions | Having trouble finding a pic of the soft bound copy like I have.. This is a pic of the hardcover.
|
GimmeVinyl 3rd Jan 2020 |  | BookLarry Davis - Super Stock: Drag Racing The Family Sedan | Ok... So my brother lent me this book when I had my knee replacement surgery back in 2011.. well.. he hasn't taken it back so far! But, at least he got his Bentley book back... Used copies are fetching $50 for the hardcover.. New from $109 up...

GimmeVinyl 3rd Jan 2020 |  | BookElisabeth Tuckey And Ewan Kennedy - Chrysler Valiant | A very interesting.. and eye opening (to an American) book on the Chrysler Valiant in Australia. Includes the utes, Charger, the inline Hemi six, and the Chrysler by Chrysler (CH series). Includes an extensive racing history.
|
GimmeVinyl 3rd Jan 2020 |  | BookRichard M. Langworth - Kaiser-Frazer The Last Onslaught On Detroit | Awesome history on the story of Kaiser Frazer.. plenty of pics... Copies are going for $56 for ones in good condition, but have notes and highlighted pages. VG copies start at $85, and go as high as $250 near mint.
|
GimmeVinyl 1st Jan 2020 |  | 78 RPMBobby Wayne - Let Me In / Wild Card | Sonically, this record sounds better than anything I've heard on 78 up to the mid 50's. Although it doesn't state so on the record, it's definitely a full-frequency range recording! I added this to the London US listing, as I previously thought that my copy was from the UK.
