Rusty Cochrane 20th Oct 2018		I love this on 78... great sound & recording



corringhamlad 23rd May 2014		Let that be a lesson!



moondog 21st May 2014		In the 50s I used to own HL 8142 Bill Haley's Green Tree Boogie and that was a black & gold London copy. I recall it well as it was the only London 78 that I had like it. Sadly it was lent to a mate who broke it.



Felonious 20th May 2014		This discussion took place under the entry for the 45 RPM release Tony P 9th Mar 2012 Thanks Bill. I knew it is not an easy difference to describe. I have checked my 78's and the latest black and gold London 78 I have is HL8132. bill mann 9th Mar 2012 Yes Tony P, I have 8886 on 78 by Ritchie Valens, 'Bluebirds over the Mountains', the label on this one is the same colours as the 45s ie definite silver and jet black. whereas the normal silver top 78 label is a sort of very very dark brown with a different shade of silver, almost shades of sepia, if you get my drift. The other difference is the old label is shiny, Ritchie's is matt like the 45s Tony P 9th Mar 2012 I will check the number of the latest black and gold London 78 that I have. I used to have a couple of the very last of the London 78's including Keeley Smith (8984). I remember that the label for these was very slightly different. Does anyone else remember this difference? KeithS 9th Mar 2012 Early HL 8000 series 78's continued with the same black labels as the L500's and eventually changed to silver tops. The silver tops then started as "London-American" rather than just London. The design of the 45 label followed a similar pattern but the changes happened much later Maxonian 8th Mar 2012 John Lee Hooker's Too Much Boogie is all black. 78 only of course. David M. McKee 8th Mar 2012 All the London 78s I've seen have been siver tops Maxonian 8th Mar 2012 No, the 78 by the HL 84xx stage would always be silver top. I have elarier 78s bought new at the time with silver top. Only the very early HL80xx seem to be all black. plerner 8th Mar 2012 I may get banished for mentioning this but I've just bought the 78 of this single (fabulous sound quality) and my question is, with a black and silver label quite like (but not the same as) the round centre 45 label pictured above, would my 78 be a later issue, and would there have been an earlier 78 release with a black label (like the tri centre version)? Perhaps one of our London label experts (Mr McKee?) might be able to assist?



Alan Warby 2nd Jul 2013		Reached Number 8 in the NME charts, 27 Sep 1957. It was also awarded a Gold Disc.
