umbria99 26th Apr 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumBlack Blood - Chicano | According to Afro7 website, "Black Blood was an afrobeat/funk/soul/disco outfit formed by expatriate Kenyan musicians in Brussels, Belgium in the mid-70’s. They performed in local clubs, were sighted by a record label executive, cut a few singles and LPs (1975’s Chicano arguably being their strongest work) and appear to have vanished into thin air afterwards."
Songs are performed in Swahili.

umbria99 26th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumSteppenwolf - Steppenwolf Gold | Although Steppenwolf Gold - Their Great Hits was released in many territories, there is no linked release in this case, despite the US version DSX 50099 also being listed on the labels. This would appear to be because of the drug connotation, The Pusher (written by Hoyt Axton) is censored from this pressing. It has been replaced at B2 with a Mars Bonfire composition Faster Than The Speed Of Life, but this appears to have been erroneously credited to Hoyt Axton on the label. It looks like someone In EMI's South East Asia department took their eye off the ball.

umbria99 6th Nov 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumSantana - Santana | Track A2 erroneously credited to Jimmie Zack, whereas the inter web seems pretty sure it was written by Clarence “Sonny” Henry. This version is heard briefly during episode 4 of BBC drama “Trust” about the kidnapping of John Paul Getty III.
|
umbria99 24th Sep 2018 | | Vinyl AlbumSimon And Garfunkel - Bookends | My mono copy has a laminated front cover and on the back “Sleeve produced by Upton Printing Group” whereas my stereo version has a Matt finish cover and there are no sleeve printer credits.
|
umbria99 13th Apr 2018 | | CD AlbumKirsty MacColl - From Croydon To Cuba...An Anthology | Where is the track listing for the third CD in this box set?
Mod note: added
|
umbria99 6th Jun 2017 | | CD AlbumIan Anderson [Jethro Tull] - Homo Erraticus | There is also KScope291 which includes a DVD
|
umbria99 28th Mar 2017 | | Vinyl AlbumFree - The Free Story | I picked up the #9327-4 Canadian pressing this morning for a fiver from a charity shop, though it does have ISLD4 printed on the sleeve, and its Limited Edition Number is #03038. However, just as with the UK release no one seems to know just how many copies of each album these editions were limited to.
|
umbria99 8th Dec 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumJames Last - Voodoo Party | For just a quid from a charity shop and with 3 classic Santana tracks getting the Hansi treatment, what's not to like.
|
umbria99 27th Nov 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumAntonio Carlos Jobim - Stone Flower | Stone Flower also appears as track B2 on the transcendent Caravanserai album by Santana.
|
umbria99 17th Nov 2016 | | CinemaToo Late (2015) | Filmed on 5 reels of 35mm stock comprising 20 minute uncut takes this excellent film had its first UK screening at The Phoenix Film Theatre, University of Southampton last night. On this evidence it's not difficult to see why Denis Hauck is being touted as the next Tarantino.
|
umbria99 7th Nov 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumSantana - Welcome | The text and photo inside the gatefold is printed upside down in my first pressing, does anyone have a similar copy?
|
umbria99 7th Nov 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumDavid Bowie - Low | There is a fan club insert with my stickered track list with my A2/B1 pressing which also bears an etched RS1108A2 crossed through.
|
umbria99 7th Nov 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumDavid Bowie - The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars | My copy has a similar back cover to that uploaded by harry1958 save that in the top left corner it has RCA HH (this appears in a white box - greetings card style), the label is minus Stereo as per the image uploaded by roboleyton. So can anyone tell me is this a 1972 release or a reissue?
|
umbria99 1st Nov 2016 | | Vinyl AlbumFree - The Free Story | Mine's #014241. Does anyone know just how limited this release really was?
