OldMod67 21st Apr 2023		Vinyl Album The Ventures - The Guitar Genius Of The Ventures	I purchased a lovely copy of this for a fiver the other day. Popped it on today to find that A1 is the mistitled A Go Go Dancer, not the fabulous, sinister sounding, organ infused tune I was expecting.
OldMod67 17th Apr 2023		Book Ray Bradbury - The Illustrated Man	Rear cover pic added
OldMod67 16th Apr 2023		Vinyl Album Television Personalities - The Painted Word	@JamesTrash - Thanks, that makes more sense. It was late coming out and with the label issues wasn't around for too long either. The date you give seems a lot closer, as I got the Art For All comp (Whaam! BIG 8) in the Summer. I haven't had a dive into my scrapbooks and modzines looking for this as I didn't notice this 1985 date until yesterday.
OldMod67 15th Apr 2023		Vinyl Album Television Personalities - The Painted Word	I don't have any press releases or flyers, but I'm pretty sure the release date here is a little late. I am convinced I bought it in 1984 (great year for albums, for me anyway!). I saw it at my local Our Price and indie (Armadillo) and purchased it at one or the other (Armadillo I think). I haven't submitted a request to change in case a member has more than their memory to rely on.

OldMod67 1st Apr 2023		Book Ray Bradbury - The Small Assassin	This entry appears to be just a 1986 reprint of the 1976 edition. I will add the cover, which has the same front image as the 1984 printing. Correction submitted to amend the ISBN listed. - Now sorted, thanks mod.

OldMod67 26th Mar 2023		Vinyl Album The Exits [UK] - The Legendary Lost Album	I've popped the inner sleeve on for now, as the LP is still in its shrink-wrap. If anyone has a decent image (ie without their reflection!) feel free to replace the main photo.
OldMod67 25th Mar 2023		Vinyl Album The Exits [UK] - The Legendary Lost Album	A3 listed on sleeve as This Toy Town World (Keep On Tryin') A1 & A2 are the single, recorded 1977, released 1978 The other tracks recorded early 1979.
OldMod67 21st Mar 2023		Vinyl Album Various Artists - British Motown Chartbusters	Wow, that'll be cool. I remember seeing a lot of this series in coloured vinyl, but I was either still at school or just leaving and just didn't have the funds. This would have been the early eighties and to this day I still haven't bought them! Volume 3 was as clear and I think I saw it more often than the others. Can't recall seeing the whole series in coloured, but a fair few. I think most were translucent, including a rancid looking brown.

OldMod67 25th Feb 2023		Book John Wyndham - The Midwich Cuckoos	I own a rather tatty 1970 printing, with this Harry Willock cover design. I won't create a new entry, just mark this one as owned, as aside from the pricing, it's identical. Same SBN, so really the listings dated 1971, 1973 and 1979 all could be displayed on one entry, being reprints (as with vinyl LPs)
OldMod67 25th Feb 2023		Vinyl Album Graduate - Acting My Age	A subtle change of shot for this Spanish front cover.
