Producer Al 7th Aug 2018		78 RPM Paul Robeson - Rockin' Chair / River Stay 'Way From My Door	I was at a recent lecture at Abbey Road studios, and they revealed that "Rockin' Chair" was the very first recording made at Abbey Road when it opened in 1931. It's generally accepted that Sir Edward Elgar with the London Symphony Orchestra made the first recording, which was filmed for the opening of the studios. But it seems that this Paul Robeson recording was made shortly before the Elgar one.
Producer Al 5th Feb 2018		12" Single Dr. Feelgood - She's A Windup	The A side clocks in at 2'05" - is that the shortest side of a 12" single ever?
Producer Al 4th May 2017		12" Single Bananarama - Shy Boy (Extended Version)	Demo A side label now added (B side label is blank). It came in a plain white album inner type sleeve with the same sticker as the A side label. It has the same versions of tracks as the standard 12".
Producer Al 8th Mar 2017		12" Single Brick - Dusic (Long Version)	Judging by the text on the labels, these are US releases not UK
Producer Al 8th Mar 2017		12" Single Michael Zager And The Moon Band Featuring Peabo Bryson - Do It With Feeling	Judging by the text on the labels, these are US releases not UK
Producer Al 8th Mar 2017		12" Single Gennady Rozhdesventsky - HMV Classics 45rpm Dynamic Sound Series	Hi - this series of 12" 45rpm Classical releases dates from later than 1972. The date on the label is the recording date of the music. (one of the same series on Discogs has a date of 1966 on it) I remember these in the shops, and I reckon it was around 1980. Unfortunately there are no dates on the sleeves to confirm it.
Producer Al 20th Jun 2016		12" Single F.A.B. Featuring M.C. Parker - Thunderbirds Are Go (Straight Run)	sleeve now added
Producer Al 8th Jun 2016		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Cash Cows	Sticker now added. Size about 4.5cm (1.75 inches) diameter.
Producer Al 4th Jun 2016		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Abbey Road	Hi - thanks for the response. The other side of the disc is identical - but says Side 2 - instead of Side 1. As I said the sleeve appears to be like the Dutch one,with the Apple 5C cat no on the spine. So, on reflection it looks like the Dutch edition. I didn't realise that foreign pressings would use the YEX matrix stampers. My question would be then, what is the cat no. of the UK one? If it exists. The entry on this page uses the Dutch cat no. even though the listing is supposedly for the UK edition. (Mods please move the images to the correct page if it's an import)
Producer Al 4th Jun 2016		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Abbey Road	BTW - this was bought in the UK at the time - but the sleeve appears the same at the Netherlands release. The matrix numbers on the runouts are YEX 749-4 / YEX 750-3. So, does that make it a UK pressing, but the sleeve is Dutch? Any comments welcome.
Producer Al 4th Jun 2016		Vinyl Album The Beatles - Abbey Road	Pictures added of disc and sleeve.
Producer Al 10th Nov 2015		Book Various Authors - Not 1982	I have got Not 1983 (indeed with yellow cover!) - will be adding it soon
