Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleThe Automatic - Monster | Their biggest hit by a country mile, of course (UK #4) and it's one of those songs you either love or despise. Personally I love it...
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleIggy Pop - Lust For Life | Rerelease of "Lust For Life", presumably off the back of its use in "Trainspotting" that year. Not sure why the 1990 copyright date on it though.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleIggy Pop - Beside You | Added a couple of extra scans. #47 UK chart.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleIggy Pop - Candy | I believe that some releases billed "Candy" as a duet with Kate (B-52s) Pierson; this one doesn't mention her. #67 UK charts, though it did better elsewhere (it was his biggest US single ever, for example).
Colour banding on silver CD is a scanning artefact.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleZZ Top - Pincushion (Album Version) | I don't suppose metal box editions, PiL notwithstanding, are common enough that we need a new format like "Tin"... #15 UK chart (well, the regular edition was, I presume).
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SinglePulp - A Little Soul | Scans added. #22 UK chart.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - My House | Final single from Formaldehyde LP. #29 UK chart. Seems to have been the first release for "Discotheque Wreck", which was shortly to turn up as a track on How To Make Friends And Influence People.
Don't ask me what the cover's about; I could never "see" those magic eye images!
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Josephine | Trailer single for Shaving Peaches album; reached #23 UK chart.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Pretend Best Friend | Added all images (including the prints, which are about the size of Kodachrome slides so as to fit in the jewel case). #25 UK chart.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Easy | Another one from Regular Urban Survivors. #12 UK chart.
|
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Bad Actress | #10 UK charts (the second top ten single from Regular Urban Survivors).
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - III Wishes (Radio Edit) | This was widely condemned as the release which killed Terrorvision chartwise and led to their split with EMI; I always loved it, myself...
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Alice What's The Matter? ("Oh Yeah" Mix) | Track 1 remixed by Chris Sheldon
Track 2 remixed by Pop Will Eat Itself
Track 3 from BBC Radio 1FM session
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleTerrorvision - Middleman | Couple of unexpected but good covers (Iggy Pop, Cheap Trick) on this one.
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleThe Montrose Avenue - Where Do I Stand? | Briefly trendy Berkshire band; this was their highest charting single at #38 UK. The postcard is tucked in behind the CD inside the digipak, hence the shape and hole in the middle.
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleJoy Zipper - Out Of The Sun (Radio Edit) | The plug sticker says "release date 21st June 2004"; I assume that's for stock copies, and that the May date on the sleeve and CD is that of this promo's production. The rainbow effect on the CD is a scanning artefact, sorry. In reality it's silver.
I believe the composer credits should be "Vinny Cafiso, Tabitha Tindale"; they also co-produced the album these tracks are lifted from, with Kevin Shields and David Holmes.
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleAberfeldy - Heliopolis By Night | Stock copy CD also had second track "Take It Away". No producer or composer credits on this promo; producer was Jim Sutherland and composer Riley Briggs.
Reached #66, UK charts, and was NME Single of the Week.
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleCaesars - (I'm Gonna) Kick You Out (Clean Version) | Originally released as early as 1998 in the band's native Sweden; this edition (presumably) issued as a hurried follow-up to their big 2005 UK hit with "Jerk It Out".
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleRazorlight - America | Stock copies also had tracks "Teenage Logic" and "Fine". Went to #1, UK charts, 1 week (8 Oct 2006).
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleThe Charlatans - Blackened Blue Eyes | Stock copies also had "Arise Arise" on the CD1 and "Cry Cry Cry", "Don't You Worry" and the video for "Blackened Blue Eyes" on the CD2.
|
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013 | | CD SingleWeezer - Beverly Hills | UK stock copies also contained 2002 live takes of "Island in the Sun" and "Butterfly", plus a CD-ROM version of "Beverly Hills".
|
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013 | | CD SingleKingmaker - 10 Years Asleep | See also CD1. (Do these count as 'linked releases' for 45worlds purposes?)
|
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013 | | CD SingleKingmaker - 10 Years Asleep | Their other joint best UK chart showing, #15.
|
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013 | | CD SingleKingmaker - The Killjoy Was Here EP | Their joint best UK chart performance at #15.

|
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013 | | CD SingleKickstarter - Fight Back | First self-release from a band who were called that well before the crowd-funding website provided a cart for every unsigned band to jump on. Full band biog on their Facebook page.
|
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013 | | CD SingleLevellers - Celebrate | Scans added (apologies for the CD, which my scanner didn't seem to like). #28 UK chart.
