Denis247 28th Jun 2023		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 !

stoutfellow51 29th Jun 2019		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.



mister_tmg 25th Jan 2018		Yes, @Redpunk. Thanks. Odd that this fade-in version (which I assume yours is) has been neglected on reissues.



Redpunk SUBS 12th Dec 2017		Added shellac label scans without "Product" etc. at top of label.



Redpunk SUBS 12th Dec 2017		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.



mister_tmg 8th Nov 2015		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?

these4578s 18th Oct 2015		This is the recording the record uses, although the video is more complete, the record fades up quickly about 12 seconds in:

Whyperion SUBS 18th Oct 2015		I assume this live(1961) version, is not the one on the record!



these4578s 10th Oct 2015		mine's vinyl



pandah 15th Apr 2015		Mine is definitely shellac.



mister_tmg 6th Sep 2014		@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.



Fokeman 4th Aug 2014		My copy is pressed on vinyl. Is everyone's copy of this on vinyl or are some still on shellac?



moondog 15th Oct 2013		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.



Redpunk SUBS 26th Aug 2013		Added variant label scans with "A Product" etc.



Alan Warby 2nd Jul 2013		Reached Number 1 in the NME charts, 7 Jun 1957.
