uinvrmh 15th Jul 2024 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - The London American Label Year By Year: 1962 | On page 12 of the booklet Tony Rounce mistakenly refers to a British vocal version of ‘Stranger on the Shore’ by Danny Williams. As far as I can see Danny never released this song as a single in the UK. Overseas?

uinvrmh 6th Jul 2024 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - The Doo Wop Box III | From memory there was a booklet with this set. Don’t think it included info from celebrities as to reasons for their choices. There was also ‘The Super Rare Doo Wop Box’ of similar dimensions containing 5 cd’s and 101 tracks with booklet compiled by Grammy winner, Billy Vera on a label called ‘Rock Beat’ in 2015,

|
uinvrmh 6th Mar 2021 | | CD AlbumFrank Sinatra - The Capitol Years | Track 3.04 is a wonderful recording. It took place the evening before Frank was due to record the famous version but this one is a rehearsal with just Frank and his musical director, Bill Miller on piano. When you think about the lyrics, the time quoted and the circumstances at the start of the song they really didn’t need to record it with an orchestra the next day because this rehearsal is just PERFECT!!! As far as I know this set is the only source of this recording ( but maybe someone knows of another source?? ). It had been located in the Capitol tape vaults in a box which indicated that the recording should be wiped. What a tragedy that would have been!
|
uinvrmh 12th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Please Please Me | Er, nope, sorry. Think you’ll have to wait for the £16 one to come along. That’s testing your patience though and maybe your best bet is a seller at a car boot sale who doesn’t know the real value. Best of luck!
|
uinvrmh 12th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Beatles - Please Please Me | Good try MM but I’m afraid you’ll have to raid a much larger personal piggie bank to get it.

|
uinvrmh 13th Jan 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Dave Clark Five - The Dave Clark Five's Greatest Hits | Has been a surprisingly difficult greatest hits LP to find in the past especially from a major act such as the DC5. In decent condition nowadays goes for around £25.
|
uinvrmh 6th Dec 2020 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Animals - The Animals | According to the Record Retailer Album Chart this LP was a top 20 seller for 19 weeks in the UK in 1964 peaking at number 6 so it cannot, with respect, have ‘sold in small quantities’.
