nboldock 26th Aug 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Watersons - Reflections (1997) | The bottom edge of the box is plain black so I haven't bothered scanning that.
Other scans to follow.
|
nboldock 26th Aug 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Raywells - E.P. (1999) | True indeed - but I would say, if something goes in the "wrong" place, don't worry about it! We'll sort it eventually.
This is a self-released jobby from Hull so unlikely to cause any issues. Worst case scenario is things like this end up on both worlds, which isn't the end of the, er... world!
|
nboldock 25th Aug 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Raywells - E.P. (1999) | Okay, it's clearly called "E.P." but with seven tracks I felt this would be out of place on CD Singles World so I've added it here, as an album, instead (which fits better with our own guidelines). One of those odd ones that fall between both worlds I guess.
|
nboldock 18th Jul 2016 | | CD AlbumGuns N' Roses - Greatest Hits | Yeah agreed, I don't think that's the catalogue number at all - not sure what is though...
|
nboldock 9th Jul 2016 | | CD AlbumCobby And Litten - My People Come From The Sea (2016) | Poetry meets electronica in collaboration between Steve Cobby (Fila Brazillia) and writer Russ Litten (ex Looking For Adam). Stunning.

nboldock 30th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumWreckless Eric - Bungalow Hi (2004) | Nice one.
I'm still quite proud of that review :-)
|
nboldock 27th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumWreckless Eric - Bungalow Hi (2004) | Cheers Bod. Yes, mine are not pale and not rough so I assume he had good stock with him on tour. Funny that I bought it the day before release though! Was a great gig - we have it listed, together with my review (published in a local music magazine), here.
(I won't ask why my front cover has therefore been hidden, lol).
Incidentally I think "33s + 45s" is the best song he's ever written. Just brilliant.

nboldock 26th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumTwo Straylarkers - Straydance Outbreak (2015) | Folk tunes performed by folk fiddle duo comprising Corona Smith of Shiznitz, along with Jim Eldon.
|
nboldock 26th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumGuns N' Roses - Greatest Hits | I'm thinking Japanese, though no idea if it's official or not.
|
nboldock 26th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumWreckless Eric And Amy Rigby - Wreckless Eric And Amy Rigby (2008) | [YouTube Video]
|
nboldock 26th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumWreckless Eric - Bungalow Hi (2004) | I can't see the difference - is it the thickness of the paper? I bought mine direct from Eric at a gig the day before launch - it looks fine and is on thick gloss medium. Perhaps Eric had already fixed his own stock himself?
|
nboldock 7th Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Pogues - The Pogues In Paris (2012) | Bit of a query on this one.
This was available throughout Europe but the version I have (pictured here) has a French-language sticker on the front. I bought it second hand off Ebay and additionally it has a promo sticker on the back. French Polydor was behind the release so have I got:
(a) a French country-specific version of this release (possibly sent out as a promo from the French Polydor office)
or
(b) the standard European version - did this have a French sticker on in all territories?
Anyone got a UK/other country one they can compare this to? It all comes down to whether the sticker seen here is France-only I guess?
Or do we enter it as Europe anyway and call this a cover variation if necessary?

nboldock 3rd Jun 2016 | | CD AlbumLaura Marling - I Speak Because I Can (2010) | It really is a fine album MM. Mine's a regular jewel case job tho (bought new from HMV at the time).
|
nboldock 12th May 2016 | | CD AlbumFoo Fighters - In Your Honour (2005) | Hi Greg - how come this is listed as being on RCA (fake or otherwise) - I can't see RCA mentioned anywhere? Am I missing it? Also, is this definitely Chinese?
I'm thinking we should probably move it to Bootleg flag and label [none] (pending feedback). We could note country of origin in the Notes.
|
nboldock 6th May 2016 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - The Best Of British Folk (2005) | Nice one, thanks Greg. Saved me a job there. Great little CD this, think I paid about £2 for it off Amazon!
|
nboldock 16th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumVarious Artists - Mojo Presents Paint It Black (2016) | It's out now and for magazine CDs we date them in line with the issue date of the magazine, so the date of May 2016 is correct and although it sounds like it isn't out yet... it is. Hopefully that makes sense :-)
|
nboldock 14th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Doilys - Tiffin With The Doilys (2000) | Featuring Paul Banks of Santa's Buggerboyz.
|
nboldock 14th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumDead Fingers Talk - Storm The Reality Studios...Plus (2000) | Criminally underrated post-punk brilliance.

nboldock 12th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Beautiful South - Miaow (1994) | The original cover art (pictured - see image 1029415) was withdrawn after legal threats from HMV.
|
nboldock 12th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumSyreeta - One To One (2012) | Ha! That does look a bit.. er... well... :-/
|
nboldock 9th Apr 2016 | | CD AlbumKraftwerk - The Mix (1995) | This works quite well. I'll point the other mods to it.
|
nboldock 31st Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumBrady Hogg - Brady Hogg (1998) | Brady Hogg were a Hull-based band comprising Graham Brady, Hugh Whitaker (ex Housemartins) and Matthew Hogg.
|
nboldock 25th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumB♯ II C - B♯ II C | An absolute bugger to enter, this (the band name is pronounced "Be Sharp To See"), but an excellent CD. Chilled out dub/electronica with bits of didge and whatnot. Very good indeed. Young people might enjoy a jazz cigarette with this (though perhaps not middle aged geezers like me).
|
nboldock 20th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Beautiful South - Glastonbury 99 | Despite the title only the first eight tracks are from Glasto - the remainder recorded at Wembley Arena the previous month.
|
nboldock 20th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumThe Beautiful South - Bus Stop Blues | Track 2 should of course be "Rotterdam", and track 8 should be "Let Love Speak Up Itself".
|
nboldock 9th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumSanta's Buggerboyz - Planet Of Sloths (1999) | Okay, so that's 42 of the 1999 Santa's Buggerboyz albums entered with 10 to go - I think I do have the other ten but I don't have the artwork for those so I've entered all I can for now! Lots of scans still to do of course - eventually. I should be able to source the covers for the remaining 10 albums so I'll add those when I can.
One band - one year - 52 albums - and they did it.
|
nboldock 8th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumInspiral Carpets - Island Head E.P. (1990) | Got to love these Japanese "EPs", haven't you? Just the 21 tracks on this one... :-D
|
nboldock 8th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumSanta's Buggerboyz - 4 Track Hound System (1999) | The music and artwork are covers/a parody of Fonda 500 - 8 Track Sound System.
|
nboldock 6th Mar 2016 | | CD AlbumSanta's Buggerboyz - The Goose Is Getting Fat (1999) | A Christmas album, continuing SBB's weekly album releases... this one released in July. Of course.
