make1968 ● 27th Oct 2017 |  | CD AlbumGene Vincent - Twentieth Century Rock & Roll Artists | Another slight surprise is Rocky Road Blues (A3), which is a later re-recording by Gene - although all the others are Capitol originals (with the exception of that mysterious live Teenage Partner of course).
|
make1968 ● 26th Oct 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumChuck Berry - Juke Box Hits | As some of the tracks (Route 66 among others) were recorded in January 1961 and US album was released in March 1961, I believe this was not out before that - think we could change the date to 1961 at least (instead of 1960).
|
make1968 ● 10th Oct 2017 |  | 78 RPMGene Vincent And His Blue Caps - Be-Bop-A-Lula / Bluejean Bop | In all other countries Capitol number 3558 is the coupling Bluejean Bop / Who Slapped John. Interestingly, for some reason, this release has Be-Bop-A-Lula on the other side.

make1968 ● 2nd Oct 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumGene Vincent And The Shouts - Shakin' Up A Storm | The original 1964 mono issue. Also released in UK and Australia. As far as I know all the other pressings are from later years. I tried to link them all, but couldn't...
|
make1968 ● 22nd Sep 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumLittle Richard - Little Richard!!! | My vinyl had some mold, so I washed the record and noticed the dead wax script. And quite a line of it:
A-side: SP-LP-2100-SIDE1, EF-S 9915-1, MGSP-9456-1, PSP-137-1
B-side: EF-S 9915-2, SP-2103-2a-RE, PSP-136-2, J90H1459 (lined over), SP.2103-S2-RE, J90H 2103 SS2 RE (lined over), MGSP-9455-2, delta 3195-X, II
So the B-side is the A-side of the original US Specialty album 2103.
And the A-side is the A-side of the earlier Specialty album 2100

|
make1968 ● 18th Sep 2017 |  | CD AlbumGene Vincent - The EP Collection Gene Vincent Vol. 1 | The LP Collection release with resembling labels and design, here, is from 1999. Mistakenly I put here the present year, but this issue must be from about the same time. Derek Henderson's book, too, states this as a 1998 release.

make1968 ● 12th Sep 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumDick Clark - Dick Clark's Rock Roll & Remember: Weekend Of May 20,1988 | Bought this for the featured Little Richard interview, which is sliced in pieces between the tracks. The track listing can be found in the sheets that were attached (images will be uploaded soon).

|
make1968 ● 27th Aug 2017 |  | Live MusicMichael Jackson @ Olympiastadion | 20 years ago! The venue was full, the music was LOUD, even where I was - far from the stage. I was not actually a devoted Jackson fan, but I remember this with fondness. Great show.
|
make1968 ● 12th Aug 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumBrenda Lee - Rockin' Around The Christmas Tree | Reasonable, bought new for less than one pound in 1987, low price edition (as it should be!). But why was this released like this?
|
make1968 ● 3rd Aug 2017 |  | Live MusicBuddy Holly And The Crickets @ Westchester Theatre | Checking Gene Vincent's tour schedule: the preceding day a late night show in Ohio. Life on the road it was... and what a set up for both of these nights!
|
make1968 ● 31st Jul 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumGene Vincent And His Blue Caps - Bluejean Bop! | While the US pressing label gives B2 as on the cover: "That Old Gang Of Mine", the Canadian label (and not cover) has the complete title: "Wedding Bells (Are Breaking Up That Old Gang Of Mine)". When did that change?
|
make1968 ● 31st Jul 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - La Bamba 2 | Dear leonard, I'll add the labels as soon as I find the record again, it is somewhere... but I remember they are UK labels and definitely different from these Dutch ones.
|
make1968 ● 23rd Jul 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumChuck Berry - Chuck | Actually, this is a very nice record by Chuck, now that I've listened it over and over! Had to buy it, yes, and I did. As it says: "First album of new recordings in over 38 years"! Great.

|
make1968 ● 4th Jul 2017 |  | CD AlbumGene Vincent - Twentieth Century Rock & Roll Artists | I was curious to hear which version would Teenage Partner be, '56 or '58! For my surprise this turned out to be a live recording! But, no, unfortunately not Gene Vincent. I didn't recognise the band, does anyone know?
|
make1968 ● 27th Jun 2017 |  | 78 RPMGene Vincent And His Blue Caps - Say Mama / Be Bop Boogie Boy | With nods to jdtri-centre, another pair of label images uploaded. Interestingly, the design is different on each side (logo size, rim text). These are identical labels to the ones previously uploaded.
|
make1968 ● 27th Jun 2017 |  | 78 RPMBeny Moré - Santa Isabel De Las Lajas / Todo Lo Perdi | I may be mistaken, but if the US RCA numbering is chronological, this would be released somewhere around March-April 1957, not 1955 as it is listed now? Of course the 23- prefix may have something to do with it?
