sladesounds 30th May 2017		CD Album Mariah Carey - MTV Unplugged EP	Marketed by the company as an album, given an album cat# and reached #3 in the UK and Billboard album charts. It's an album.
sladesounds 29th May 2017		CD Album Townes Van Zandt - First Album [For The Sake Of The Song]	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 29th May 2017		Vinyl Album Bob Dylan - Oh Mercy	Have added alternate cover/label scans. Same cat# & barcode as other release, both marked on label as "Made In England" (relevant detail for back cover shown in detail) Deadwax: a: 4658001 A1 b: 4658001 B2
sladesounds 28th May 2017		CD Album Gillian Welch - Revival	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 24th May 2017		Vinyl Album Ray Martin And His Orchestra - The Sound Of Sight	Alternate label scans uploaded, presumably from a later pressing as no tax codes in deadwax and matrix being XZAL-6101-3L/XZAL-6102-4L.
sladesounds 23rd May 2017		Vinyl Album Danny Kroha - Angels Watching Over Me	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 23rd May 2017		Vinyl Album The Jimmy Castor Bunch - It's Just Begun	Is this one an actual bootleg or a repressing. If it came with a SIAE sticker attached it could well have been a legit issue. I also notice that the dynaflex is missing off the labels as being a later issue it would not have been dynaflex vinyl. It shows on that other site as being reissued in the USA a few times in recent years. Is any detail contained in the deadwax of the copy listed here?
sladesounds 5th May 2017		Vinyl Album Miley Cyrus - Bangerz	I bought this online for a mate of mine (scanning it first before handing it over) I think for around £35 which I thought was a bit pricey at the time for a wannabe pop star. I see that now when this does turn up on ebay and the like it sells for £250+. No accounting for taste.
sladesounds 4th May 2017		Vinyl Album Bob Dylan - Greatest Hits	Reissued in 1970 with same cat# but with non-flipback cover
sladesounds 4th May 2017		Vinyl Album Robert Farnon - Two Cigarettes In The Dark	Thanks for that - all changed accordingly
sladesounds 3rd May 2017		Vinyl Album Kris Gietkowski - Songs From The First Album By Egg	If you wondering how the cat#'s seem to work on Fruits De Mer & Regal Crabomophone, the "Strange Fish" sequence is used across both labels for a series of albums that are instrumental tracks influenced by (as they say) classic krautrock, kosmische sounds, motorik beats, progressive rock, acid-jams, minimalist and ambient music, old and new. Original material is released on Regal Crabomophone whilst classic and obscure tracks, reinterpreted by artists are released on the Fruits De Mer label.
sladesounds 3rd May 2017		Vinyl Album Kris Gietkowski - Songs From The First Album By Egg	Blagged from the Fruits De Mer website: So I was idly having a wander round youtube, looking for inspiration/hidden gems when I happened to find a cover of a track from Egg’s first album – the first ‘out there’ album I bought (over 45 years ago), I fell in love with the original album, playing it constantly - in fact, it’s responsible for much of my obsession with music ever since. ‘While Growing My Hair’ had been posted on youtube two years ago by a group called ‘Gietek’ but had less than 1,000 views – but it was wonderful, it took me back to 1970! After much chasing, Gietek turned out to be the work of ONE MAN…Kris Gietkowski; he had recorded much of Egg’s first LP (and much more) for his own enjoyment and was a bit shocked that some silly sod with a little record label wanted to release any of it – but I did – and there IS more to come, but for now, here is most of Egg’s first, and very wonderful, first LP, re-recorded by a guy called Kris Gietkowski – I don’t think Fruits de Mer’s original aim to be “willfully obscure” has ever been summed up better. Kris shares a little of his story….”I was born in Poland, didn't have any good instruments so I improvised. I used old radios to make their amplification circuits to distort my acc guitar and keys. I made a lot of music that way. Some of it I still have on my PC drive, for purely sentimental reasons. Very early experimental stuff. Then I moved to the UK ten years ago, got my electric and bass and keys, then Hammond organ with Leslie, then sold it and bought Nord C2, hoping to play with others. I saw England as a musician's heaven but that soon changed. I went to different jam nights, open mics, etc. My last audition - the three guys were shocked and displeased when I suggested tempo change and two drum breaks with a bass solo in one song (I never heard from them since might I add...). Why do people want all those restrictions? Isn't music a form of art?” [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 3rd May 2017		Vinyl Album Robert Farnon - Two Cigarettes In The Dark	Anyone any ideas if this an export copy? I have a USA printed sleeve with a Made in England record. I notice on the other site that there is a Canadian copy with same sleeve but with a Made in Europe record.
sladesounds 1st May 2017		Vinyl Album The Miracles - The Miracles From The Beginning	On the original single (End 1016) it was credited as only being written by Gordy & Carlo.
sladesounds 30th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album The Ink Spots Quartet - The Ink Spots	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 29th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Strange Fish Two	North Korean being very topical at the moment; track D1 title "Kwangmyŏngsŏng " translates as "Bright Star" or "Brilliant Star" in Korean which is the title of a poem written by Kim Il-sung. It is also the name of a class of satellites built by North Korea, first launched in the mid-1980s. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 29th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Miles Davis - Kind Of Blue	Without the scans it is difficult to confirm 100% the cat# or if it is already entered on the system. This was added 2 years ago and I don't think the member who added it has been online for a similar length of time, so anyone else out there with this one please fill in the blanks.
sladesounds 20th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Louis Armstrong And His All-Stars - Louis Armstrong Plays W.C. Handy	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 20th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album The Incredible String Band - The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter	I bought this last week at a boot sale from a guy selling his personal collection. I thought the same regarding covers and discs. He stated that he bought it from new and this is how it came. I have changed the year to '71.
sladesounds 20th Apr 2017		CD Single Busta Rhymes - Gimme Some More (Clean Version)	The violin riffs on the title track are sampled from the opening theme to Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 film Psycho, composed by Bernard Herrmann. [YouTube Video]
sladesounds 17th Apr 2017		12" Single New Order - World (Perfecto Mix)	Although only titled on the discs are "World" the track title was "World (The Price Of Love)" The uncredited producers were New Order, Stephen Hague
sladesounds 11th Apr 2017		CD Album David Bowie - Best Of Bowie	Having looked at discogs as Lee says, this is an European release. The album as Greg rightly points out was released internationally however with variations of cat#'s, track order, etc.it warrants separate entries in our database. Changed this release to Europe.
sladesounds 10th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Patti Smith Group - Wave	Set of scans, from the album in my collection, uploaded. Generic image looking very similar to the front cover scan suitably deleted. Hopefully all is now well with the community at large. Apologies for any alarm or confusion I may have inflicted on users.
sladesounds 10th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Patti Smith Group - Wave	Hi Lee I replied on your other comment here. The image you state was "lifted" from pitchfork did not and I have replied to that comment here. Regarding this one, I have deleted the image on this entry as it seems to cause some concern and I will endeavour to make some time to get the album scanned for you this week. I will delete the comments once I get the scans up as by then they will not make sense to someone coming late in to the conversation.
sladesounds 10th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Patti Smith Group - Wave	No problem - comments noted. Whilst Lee states "Sometimes nothing is better than anything I think" I think a generic cover is better than nothing but then that just my opinion. Regarding the pilfering quote the cover comes from a site with no legal or copyright issues and is only used as the original poster or one of the actual owner hasn't supplied a photo or scan. Easily deleted in the future once they supply the "genuine" thing. Feel free to delete any images that you believe fail to serve a purpose be they generic copies or any that I scan.
sladesounds 10th Apr 2017		12" Single The Dickies - Paranoid	Lee I agree with you, "You drive me ape" sends me back to '79 everytime I hear it - a cracking tune!
sladesounds 10th Apr 2017		CD Album David Bowie - Never Let Me Down	My copy, scans here, obviously doesn't have a barcode printed on the tray or show evidence of a sticker on the jewel case. A little more research on the web shows the long box of this issue to have a slightly changed cat#. I have therefore taken the barcode off until we can can confirm with images that this disc was issued with a barcode #. I expect a copy will turn up at sometime with a barcode sticker attached.
sladesounds 4th Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Sunny Day Real Estate - Diary	[YouTube Video]
sladesounds 3rd Apr 2017		Vinyl Album Art - Supernatural Fairy Tales	Scans from 1975 re-issue uploaded - same cat#. A2 shows correctly on labels as being composed by (Stephen) Stills.
sladesounds 31st Mar 2017		78 RPM Louis Jordan And His Tympany Five - Beware / Texas And Pacific	[YouTube Video]
