 Recording engineer was Joe Meek, who also recorded Lonnie Donegan's Conway Hall live performances and also "My Dixie Darling" live at British Legion Drill Hall in Plymouth !

 I wonder what damage those 78 rpm steel needles would have done to the vinyl pressings of this and others by the same manufacturer (Pye Group). My copy btw is vinyl as is my 78 copy of The Diamonds Little Darlin' on Mercury.

 Yes, @Redpunk. Thanks. Odd that this fade-in version (which I assume yours is) has been neglected on reissues.

 Added shellac label scans without "Product" etc. at top of label.

 I assume you're asking about the timing of "Putting On The Style" just timed my shellac copy and it came in at 3:20.

 So as 26 people here own this, can anyone confirm the timing of their copy please?

The "fade-in" version is about 3:20. But my notes indicate I did once play a 78 of this, and it was the 'usual' 3:36 length. Perhaps there were two pressings?

 This is the recording the record uses, although the video is more complete, the record fades up quickly about 12 seconds in:

 I assume this live(1961) version, is not the one on the record!

 @suncat, I've heard that from someone else, I didn't notice it myself, but I wasn't really listening for it!

This record appears to be the last UK #1 to be unavailable as a 7" 45rpm single until Culture Beat's Mr Vain in 1993. It was certainly the last UK #1 to be only available on 78rpm.

 My copy is pressed on vinyl. Is everyone's copy of this on vinyl or are some still on shellac?

 Interesting that this record starts with an edited fade-in but re-issues on CD give the full unedited intro with Lonnie making a mess of his banjo picking.

 Added variant label scans with "A Product" etc.

 Reached Number 1 in the NME charts, 7 Jun 1957.
