Problem Child 13th Nov 2015 | | BookBrian Johns - Entranced The Siouxsie & The Banshees Story | Images uploaded of what I believe to be the first official book on the band, As with most books of this time, the photos are in B&W. The text is somewhat thin on in-depth detail, but it tells most of what you'd want to know. It's only 96 pages, so kinda looks like one of those rush stocking filler type books of the latest pop group.
The Publisher wanted to use a photo I'd taken of Siouxsie for a half page as they really liked it and asked for the neg. When they saw it their faces dropped... it was the small 110mm film - they wanted to use only 35mm. Never mind... I got a free copy of the book!

Problem Child 12th Nov 2015 | | BookRay Stevenson - Photo Past 1966-1986 | Images added. Despite the colour cover all the photos are in black and white. A little disappointing but B&W can be a good artistic study. Lots of well known, rare and unusual photos from the photographers collection and some amusing comments from him too.

Problem Child 12th Nov 2015 | | BookCaroline Coon - 1988: The New Wave Punk Rock Explosion | Book and cover images added. I bought this in December '77, I think it was published about November, though I can't be sure. Info goes up until September. A great insight from people who were there, with some fab photos. All photos are black and white to great dramatic effect, but nowadays maybe colour would be preferred to make it more visually exciting.
|
Problem Child 12th Nov 2015 | | BookAndrew Ings - Rockin' At The 2 I's Coffee Bar | Book and cover images added. A frank and sometimes funny history with contributions from those who were there at the start. It evokes the life and the times of an area of London that I particularly like.

|
Problem Child 12th Nov 2015 | | BookJohn Delaney - The UK 45 RPM Sleeves | Just got down from the loft and getting my scanner out and set up to add my own book, as I'm sure it wasn't here the other day... but kab2112 has beat me to it! Still, back cover now added and A5 promo flyer added which explains and shows what you get inside. Publication date was 17/6/13.
A second and updated edition is planned but I don't when yet. One or two 45cat contributors may be contacted regarding sleeves and label info when the time comes...!
Cheers, John

Problem Child 5th Aug 2015 | | 78 RPMMiss Margaret Cooper - Hullo, Tu Tu | No problem xiphophilos. It became the oldest record in my collection by 20 years! My knowledge of 1909 music is a bit limited... but I would say this is a bit of a novelty record? It just goes on and on... fortunately it's not too badly scratched.
The etching is actually 6 1/2 inches across.
|
Problem Child 29th Jul 2015 | | 78 RPMMiss Margaret Cooper - Hullo, Tu Tu | Label images up-loaded. I have also done the etched 'B' side to show the image area only, I would say it is slightly larger than the label area.

Problem Child 3rd Jun 2015 | | 78 RPMMiss Margaret Cooper - Hullo, Tu Tu | Unfortunately no can do with that one, but I think a slight careful depression in the middle may work. Will try one day soon, better than nothing!
|
Problem Child 2nd Jun 2015 | | 78 RPMMiss Margaret Cooper - Hullo, Tu Tu | Thanks for the info xiphophilos, always interesting to know. I might try scanning it if it's possible to do so without breaking it! This record is slightly over 12'''s wide

|
Problem Child 20th Nov 2014 | | 78 RPMLittle Richard - Long Tall Sally / Tutti Frutti | I have a slightly different version to the ones here, but I'm not gonna risk scanning it as it sits too high on my scanner and I'm definitely not going to apply a little pressure to get it closer to the glass... I've found there's not much flexibility with 78's! My copy is near mint... LTS is like make1968's 443971 copy with ;- 'N.C.B. Southern Music' in one line with the small matrix number is upside down in brackets below it. Tutti Frutti is the same as VinylSid's 441444 copy.

Problem Child 7th Nov 2014 | | Vinyl AlbumPaul McCartney - New | Just noticed after having this almost a year, that it is not on here. Will try and scan one day. Not really sure of label name. It's a plain white label with his name and the song titles only and various numbers in the dead wax. Released 14th October (Not November as I mistakenly put) in the UK and 15th October in the US. I think the Vinyl followed a little later in November.
