musictom SUBS 24th May 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Kinks - The Kinks Greatest Hits! | Oh yea. Most of these tracks were played constantly on the West Coast. The only two I don't recall from the radio are: Till The End Of The Day (one my very favorites) and Ev'rybody's Gonna Be Happy.
|
musictom SUBS 19th May 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesties Request | Image {650014} via Diognes and TheJudge has a small 53 in the lower left corner. I assume this means a later pressing by Keel Mfg. Corp?
|
musictom SUBS 14th Mar 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumThe Chiffons - Everything You Always Wanted To Hear By The Chiffons But Couldn't Get | About half the tracks are in common?
|
musictom SUBS 11th Feb 2017 |  | BookHerb Woods - Galveston-Houston Electric Railway | I would go ahead and add your cover. This book lists all the Interurban Specials through 1978 with printing quantities. It is usually readily available here in the Los Angeles area for not too much money; I don't think it sold well.
|
musictom SUBS 24th Jan 2017 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - White Mansions | Moved along with front which seems to be from the same record.
Greg: Can you add UK front cover?
|
musictom SUBS 14th Jan 2017 |  | Vinyl Album10cc - 100cc | The blue images are enhanced versions of the aqua ones for readability. They are not true representations of UK labels.

|

musictom SUBS 5th Nov 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Fall Release | I put this releases as November 1976 as that is the month we show for the O. C. Smith single on 45CAT.
|
musictom SUBS 28th Oct 2016 |  | 78 RPMSonny Boy Williamson [II] - Sonny Boy's Christmas Blues / Pontiac Blues | Ad in Billboard shows cat # as 125. Blues Records, Vol 2 and Blues Discography both show the Cat # as 145 which I believe is correct.
|
musictom SUBS 23rd Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumLaurel And Hardy - Original Motion Picture Sound-Tracks | No catalog number on some covers. The picture disc has the catalog number in the dead wax. Also dead wax shows Δ15364 and Δ15364-X but MR in a circle scratched out. I wonder if that means the black version was pressed at Monarch and for the picture disc, they used the same parts at another plant?
|
musictom SUBS 21st Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - To Elvis: Love Still Burning | With acknowledgement to Trester, here are cover images cropped a little better plus images of the record.
|
musictom SUBS 21st Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - The Sleeping Beauty | Looks like record was pressed by Columbia, Bridgeport, CT. I don't have the Instructions supposedly enclosed.
|
musictom SUBS 18th Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumPeter Frampton - I'm In You | My copy {1171337 - 1171339} has the Monarch MR in dead wax and the same deltas as the stock copy: Δ22277 & Δ22277-X.
|
musictom SUBS 18th Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumGreg Kihn Band - Kihnspiracy | Here is a back cover with the bar code but without the Columbia House mention at bottom.
|
musictom SUBS 17th Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumHerb Alpert And The Tijuana Brass - Herb Alpert's Ninth | This must have not have been a great seller, by 1973 it had been deleted from the catalogue whereas most of the rest of the TJB albums were still in print.
|
musictom SUBS 17th Oct 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumHerb Alpert's Tijuana Brass - South Of The Border | Here is another set of images from Monarch, biggest difference is in the word "STEREO". Same deltas as previously listed. A side has Δ7852 scratched out.
|
musictom SUBS 29th Sep 2016 |  | 78 RPMLaurel And Hardy - Laurel And Hardy / Laurel And Hardy In The Dance Of The Cuckoos | Reissued on 45 RPM, probably 1978. See http://www.45cat.com/record/nc517526xu
|
musictom SUBS 16th Sep 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumElectric Light Orchestra - Balance Of Power | Often times, at least in the US, when a label needed a promo copy but had run out of the specially made up ones, they would take a stock copy and some how mark it with a sticker, stamp or hole.
|
musictom SUBS 2nd Sep 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumAndré Kostelanetz And His Orchestra - Wonderland Of Christmas | Looks like the type setter for the labels assumed too much. The word STEREO is not part of the title. Possibly he grabbed it from the front cover.
|
musictom SUBS 1st Sep 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Grease | Added a set of images from Columbia, Santa Maria. Primary differences from what were already have are on sides A & B.
|
musictom SUBS 31st Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Music Box | With acknowledgement to ady_lister, here is a little nicer back cover without the shrink wrap.
|
musictom SUBS 31st Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl Album[no artist listed] - Interurban Memories | Record has delta numbers, but no MR in a circle. Monarch?
|
musictom SUBS 31st Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumHerb Alpert And The Tijuana Brass - S.R.O. | Here is another set of images {1141944 - 45}. I wonder if this could have been pressed at Capitol Jacksonville, IL? I see a "0" in the dead wax on the B side.
|
musictom SUBS 30th Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumJoshua Rifkin - Piano Rags By Scott Joplin | With acknowledgement to TheDroid, here are better front and back covers without the shrink wrap.
|
musictom SUBS 29th Aug 2016 |  | 12" SingleEastside Connection - You're So Right For Me (Vocal) | My copy came in a clear plastic pouch.
|
musictom SUBS 27th Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumBenny Bell - Shaving Cream | I believe my images {1139125 - 26} came from Columbia, Pitman, NJ.
|
musictom SUBS 27th Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVarious Artists - Here's Johnny: Magic Moments From The Tonight Show | Billie Holiday could not have been on the Tonight Show with Johnny Carson. According to the poster, Johnny started on the show in October 1962. Billie Holiday died July 17, 1959
|
musictom SUBS 26th Aug 2016 |  | Vinyl AlbumVaughn Meader - The First Family | Album jacket says in stereo as CLP 25060. However Tim Neely in American Records 1950 to 1975 doesn't list a stereo version. All copies listed on e-bay seem to be mono. Discogs has one listing for a stereo copy, but the picture is impossible to read. Wonder if this was really issued in stereo?
