mister_tmg 24th Oct 2024 | | 78 RPMNoel Coward - A Room With A View / Mad Dogs And Englishmen | What was this Philips series? I’m wondering why these 78s weren’t issued in the PB blue label series.
|
mister_tmg 20th Oct 2024 | | 78 RPMVera Lynn And Frank Weir And His Saxophone - My Son, My Son / Our Heaven On Earth | Shouldn’t the artist be “Vera Lynn and Frank Weir”? The wording being in the same size typeface and on the same line suggests a collaboration, rather than just Vera with Frank accompanying. A bit like David Whitfield with Mantovani on Cara Mia - same size typeface. Or am I reading too much into the label design and layout?
|
mister_tmg 14th Oct 2024 | | 78 RPMElvis Presley With The Jordanaires - A Mess Of Blues / The Girl Of My Best Friend | I wasn’t aware it was ever advertised.
|
mister_tmg 19th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Drifters - Breathless / Lawdy Miss Clawdy | I assume this was legitimate and licensed from EMI - but I can’t see anything about it on the record. It’s currently on eBay.
|
mister_tmg 12th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - From Me To You / I Saw Her Standing There | So if this was a release taken from an EP, might that be why there was another issue of both sides in the Philippines with different couplings?
|
mister_tmg 10th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - We Can Work It Out / Day Tripper | Ah, I think the problem is that I was searching for “Beatles day tripper 78” which fails to bring up listings with the term “78rpm”. I’ll have to try searching with that term too. Thanks for the links.
I added links to all my valuations too, but they get removed for some reason.
I’m not sure I would interpret Fair as being equal to VG. I assume that is based on the description and images.
|
mister_tmg 8th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - We Can Work It Out / Day Tripper | Can you share a link? I can’t see it on Popsike.
|
mister_tmg 6th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard - The Minute You're Gone / Just Another Guy | Sold in 2005 for $163 / £136, described as “EX- to VG++”.
|
mister_tmg 5th Sep 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - We Can Work It Out / Day Tripper | I can only see one copy having sold on eBay, based on Popsike listings. I’ve added it to the Valuations.
|
mister_tmg 31st Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMHarry James - Moonlight Becomes You / I've Heard That Song Before | Neither side seems to have been released in the UK. Rather unusual for a US #1?
|
mister_tmg 28th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMGuy Mitchell - Walkin' And Wond'rin (My Heart Cries Out In Vain) / I Want You For A Sunbeam | I’m not Mike!
|
mister_tmg 25th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMGuy Mitchell - Walkin' And Wond'rin (My Heart Cries Out In Vain) / I Want You For A Sunbeam | On disc? Which program did you use?
|
mister_tmg 22nd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - She Loves You / I'll Get You | A promotional version sold on eBay back in 2004, but the description sounds like a stock copy with ‘SAMPLE RECORD NOT FOR SALE’ stamped on it. The labels are quite probably the same as the stock versions.
|
mister_tmg 22nd Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Beatles - From Me To You / I Saw Her Standing There | Can you add a picture of it to this site please? It isn’t known to exist.
|
mister_tmg 20th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMFrankie Ford - Sea Cruise / Roberta | In the UK? It didn’t chart.
|
mister_tmg 20th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMElvis Presley - (Marie's The Name) His Latest Flame / Little Sister | There seem to be several pressings of Little Sister with different flip sides. Bootlegs?

mister_tmg 19th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMElvis Presley With The Jordanaires - Surrender / Lonely Man | Promotional version
|
mister_tmg 18th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMElvis Presley With The Jordanaires - Puppet On A String / Wooden Heart | The label images on Discogs do indeed show a publication date of 1966.
|
mister_tmg 18th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMElvis Presley - Wooden Heart / G. I. Blues | Discogs shows a New Zealand issue of this 78, but the label looks the same as this South African one. I suspect that’s what it is. The last NZ 78s on RCA listed on this site are from 1958, several years before this.
|
mister_tmg 15th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Marcels - Blue Moon / Good Bye To Love | I’ve added it.
|
mister_tmg 14th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Marcels - Blue Moon / Good Bye To Love | There is also another pressing on Continental, seemingly a subsidiary of Colpix. See https://www.discogs.com/release/26517686-The-Marcels-Blue-Moon-Goodbye-To-Love
Does it need adding separately?
|
mister_tmg 14th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMThe Marcels - Blue Moon / Goodbye To Love | Just saw this on Discogs, I assumed it can’t have been real! https://www.discogs.com/release/31242274-The-Marcels-Blue-Moon-Goodbye-To-Love

mister_tmg 14th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMRicky Valance - Tell Laura I Love Her / Once Upon A Time | Sold for £27 in 2018, no grading given.
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Shadows - I'm Lookin' Out The Window / Do You Want To Dance | Sold for £134/$160 in 2012.
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Drifters - Move It / Cha Cha Momma Brown | A cha cha version of Knees Up Mother Brown no less!
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Shadows - Don't Be Mad At Me / Willie And The Hand Jive | Not sure why Willie And The Hand Jive was issued on two consecutive Cliff Richard 78s in Turkey. Perhaps the previous one was withdrawn?
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard And The Shadows - Lessons In Love / Who Are We To Say? | B-side label image
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMCliff Richard - When The Girl In Your Arms Is The Girl In Your Heart / Got A Funny Feeling | A-side label image
|
mister_tmg 13th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMJohnny Kidd And The Pirates - Shakin' All Over / Yes Sir That's My Baby | This 2018 auction is described as a “promo”, but it looks the same as the stock issue to me. Maybe it’s called a “promo” because of the sticker on it - a stock copy with a promotional sticker put on?
|
mister_tmg 8th Aug 2024 | | 78 RPMConnie Francis - Mama / Lipstick On Your Collar | There was also a promotional version.
