Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album O. C. Smith - At Home	As I recall, the label didn't carry composer credits. Shame, that!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album O. C. Smith - At Home	I'd put it on the site but the labels are defaced, If you've got a good copy, maybe you might put it on(when you get a spare few moments). Cheers, RC!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Mamas And The Papas - The Best Of The Mamas And The Papas	RC: "Yeah thirty minutes after high noon oh please don't fore sake me" - RC, I'm sitting here, completely cracking up at your comebacks! You're not related to Magic Marmalade, are you? That track I'm missing might "shake things up a bit"!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album O. C. Smith - At Home	No, RC, There was only the one O.C. Smith cut on Red Hot Hits, but the one you mentioned DID show up on 20 Power Hits(Australian Edition) in 1969, on Side B, I recall.
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Mamas And The Papas - The Best Of The Mamas And The Papas	RC: - "And no Twelve Thirty" - Aagh! What a bummer! Guess there won't be any girls coming to this canyon!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Songs Lennon And McCartney Gave Away	Well, RC, you know what you've done.... blasted my theory to smitherines(cue: sound of loud explosion - ker-boom... not loud enough! Need it LOUDER!.... Ker-BOOOOOM!!! - that's better!).
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - 20 Chartstoppers Vol.2	That "Hollywood Spectacular" How many volumes were issued in that series? Or did the label go under before they could issue any further LPs under ANY title?
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Mamas And The Papas - The Best Of The Mamas And The Papas	Of the tracks contained on this album, I have them all but one. The one I'm missing is "California Earthquake".
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album O. C. Smith - At Home	Same Track, R.C.? "Sweet Changes"? 20 Red Hot Hits(Now N-001) had the track at Side A/No.6.
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Songs Lennon And McCartney Gave Away	Hi, TP! I don't think it's the one you suggest, I think I read about it once in a British magazine called... wait for it... Record Collector! The album had the title as per this issue but, I vaguely recall different artwork. And RC, look in that book, and see if the artwork(if depicted) is the same as this one, or if it's different, if you could, please? This might confirm my theory... or blow it to smitherines!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Charlie Rich - Behind Closed Doors	I've actually got the tracks for this album stored away on one of my external hard-drives. A friend asked me to put it onto CD for him. He provided me with a British copy of the album. Gotta say I much prefer the Ray Charles 1968 version of B3, 'Till I Can't Take It Anymore" to Charlie's version! Charlie's isn't bad, but Ray's is much better!
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album O. C. Smith - At Home	Track B4 turned up on an Aussie 20-Hits LP in 1970 called 20 Red Hot Hits(issued by a very-short-lived label called "Now Records" who only issued that one LP).
Neil Forbes 10th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The Songs Lennon And McCartney Gave Away	I'm not quite sure but wasn't there an earlier issue of this album with different cover art?
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Charlie Rich - Behind Closed Doors	Which song was it, MM?
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Monty Python - Live At The Theatre Royal, Drury Lane	I'll bet they had a spirited time doing this album! That theatre was featured in Series 1 of British TV station, LivingTV's "Most Haunted" series. Patsy Rowland(Carry-On movies) was interviewed in that edition.
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Herb Alpert And The Tijuana Brass - The Lonely Bull	Yeah! Good ol' Summit Records - Where all good albums go to die! (response to R.C. from 4 hours earlier: "reissued on Summit Records")
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Charlie Rich - Behind Closed Doors	Hi, Fixbutte! "I'll Wake You Up When I Get Home" may well be his last charting single, but in which market are we talking about? Here in Australia his record "Rolling With The Flow" got some radio exposure in 1977, but alas no chart activity, not in New South Wales at any case. Pity! It was a good record.
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	R.C.: "I remember the look on the girls face when I gave the money in 50c pieces" You're a shocker, R.C.! Bet they'd have loved you do - not!(ha-ha) See how I paraphrased a title in there?
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Sonny And Cher - Once Again	I think they just stayed together for a) their daughter, Chastity's sake and b) to meet contractual obligations to MCA Records and the producers of their TV show. The cover's a painting rather than a photo, still, a picture's worth a thousand words, so it's said!
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	Look at prices back then and look at what we're paying now for full-price CDs. Australia always seems to cop the rough end of the pineapple when it comes to prices we pay for anything. Even computer software prices are higher here than most other places in the world, and very likely artificially inflated for all kinds of flimsy reasons(excuses).
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Sonny And Cher - The Two Of Us	Shouldn't A3 be "Then He Kissed Me"? unless they've got terrible aim and couldn't hit the side of a barn with a boulder!
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	Oh, R.C. you lazy devil! Revealing your secrets on how to do as little work as possible, ay? Play all the long songs! Yep, that'll knock over an hour in about 8 tracks after you add in time for back-announcements, corporate sponsorship acknowledgements(in community radio we couldn't call them "ads"), news bulletins and giving weather reports... should just about do it, I reckon!
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Herb Alpert And The Tijuana Brass - The Lonely Bull	The label's I've uploaded have the title reinstated, the track titles centre-aligned and the catalogue number more prominent. The hue of the label body is due to me taking the contrast up to 100% to get a clearer image. And what KAS45SINGLES says, suggests to me that Mike Nesmith might've learned a trick or two from Mr. Alpert. I was intending to upload front and rear covers as well, but seeing they're already here, decided to contribute labels instead.
Neil Forbes 9th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	Talkin' 'bout long songs, what about the daddy of 'em all, MacArthur Park by Albus Dumbledore... er...Richard Harris?(Albus Dumbledore.... don't you remember? Harris played that role if the first two Harry Potter movies!). MacArthur Park clocks in at close to 8 minutes, plenty of time to "answer nature's call" and throw together a cup of coffee, then get back and cue up your next track.
Neil Forbes 8th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	Yeah, R.C., You've got to be brutal with these extremely long tracks that do nothing but send you to "la-la-land"!
Neil Forbes 8th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Hey Jude!	This is yet another rehash of old Beatles cuts masquerading as a "new" album simply by the inclusion of the somewhat(and unnecessarily) over-long "Hey Jude". All those la-la-la's at the end do have a reptilian effect, they make the song "drag on"(dragon - get it?).
Neil Forbes 8th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album The National Socialist Motor Corps N.S.K.K. Motor Group Sachsen (Saxony) Band - War Songs Of The Third Reich Volume II	Note this is an American issue, probably put out be the equally despicable KKK, their poisonous ideologies are similar even if they're not entirely united in their disgusting traditions. Maybe these(one label only) should be shown to tell the world these cretins are still "out there" and haven't yet slithered back under the rock from whence they came.
Neil Forbes 7th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - The World Of Hits	Procul Harum's Whiter Shade Of Pale, was there an actual proper stereo mix of this? Because in just about any compilation you see it included, it's always this so-called "electronically re-processed for stereo" version which always turns up. Makes me wonder if it ever was done in stereo at all.
Neil Forbes 7th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Herb Alpert And The Tijuana Brass - Going Places	Trainman, got your PM, thanks! Thought the back cover wasn't on this entry originally, Thanks muchly, ajtharp for merging the two. We have the front cover provided by KAS45SINGLES, with back cover and labels from myself.
Neil Forbes 7th Feb 2015		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Welcome To Columbia Country 20 Great Country Stars 20 Great Country Performances	Yes, R.C. but she wasn't doing "that" song, and besides, that other song you mentioned came out on RCA-Victor.
