TopPopper 2nd Feb 2017		CD Album Nilsson - ...That's The Way It Is / Knnillssonn (2002)	Edited. Hit F5 if the old version still displays.
TopPopper 30th Jan 2017		CD Album The Beatles - Unsurpassed Masters Vol. 7 (1962-1969) (2000)	I'm fighting the urge to change all of these to Bootleg. There's no way the Beatles/Apple/EMI could have sanctioned a release like this one. It seems that the label is somehow beyond the reach of copyright enforcement, so it's a case of "you can't catch me". That doesn't apply to the whole label of course. I would be happy if their copies of albums like Help!, Hard Day's Night, Revolver etc were kept as legit, but the Unsurpassed Masters series was never legal in any respect. It's all stolen goods. As mentioned below, a bootleg of a bootleg - it's still a bootleg. It even has the Yellow Dog logo on it!
TopPopper 28th Jan 2017		CD Album The Beatles - Zu Laut! Live At The Star-Club Hamburg (2015)	Should the label be given as Mobilephone, as per the logo on the cover?
TopPopper 28th Jan 2017		CD Album John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band - John Lennon / Plastic Ono Band (1988)	I believe this is a duplicate of this entry - see fist disc scan and first back of case scan.
TopPopper 20th Jan 2017		CD Album The Beatles - Unsurpassed Masters Vol. 7 (1962-1969) (2000)	I really think these albums should be listed as bootlegs.
TopPopper 15th Jan 2017		CD Album The Beatles - Revolution´s Evolution (2010)	What are all these takes of Come and Get It? The story goes that Macca made a demo of the song by himself - certainly not in 26 takes. Are these in fact Badfinger tracks?
TopPopper 15th Jan 2017		CD Album The Beatles - The Beatles (White Album) (2007)	I believe track 2-01 is the legendary long recording of "Revolution 1" which freaks out into the basis of "Revloution 9"? I have managed to download this but not listen yet. This 6-volume set appears to be just fantastic, with all the accoustic demos, and the whole set of mono and stereo mixes. Can't wait to get listening.
TopPopper 29th Dec 2016		CD Album Paul McCartney - Memory Almost Full (2008)	There is indeed a UK one - have now linked it to this.
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Unit 4+2 - Concrete And Clay: The Complete Recordings (2016)	[YouTube Video] One of the first pop videos.
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Various Artists - Motown (2004)	[YouTube Video] God bless Northern Soul
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Martin Simpson - The Definitive Collection (2004)	This guy is the best guitarist I've ever seen. [YouTube Video]
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Genesis - Selling England By The Pound (1986)	[YouTube Video]
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album David Brent And Foregone Conclusion - Life On The Road (2016)	[YouTube Video]
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Electric Light Orchestra - Out Of The Blue (2007)	[YouTube Video]
TopPopper 24th Sep 2016		CD Album Damien Rice - O (2003)	[YouTube Video] A very well recorded song. If you want to hear your hi-fi sound great, play the second half of this song, after the bass kicks in.
TopPopper 16th Sep 2016		CD Album John Lennon - Imagine (1987)	I see it, but we wouldn't normally go by the album credits inside - we'd go by what's printed on the cover/label. Otherwise, we would remove John Lennon from this and say the album is by "The Plastic U.F.Ono Band", as per the credits (2nd last page of the booklet).
TopPopper 16th Sep 2016		CD Album John Lennon - Imagine (1987)	Good point - unless there's a reason it needs to change.
TopPopper 24th Aug 2016		CD Album Various Artists - Mojo Presents Return To The Star Club (2016)	Just listened to this. All I can say is, thank the good lord in his wisdom that the Beatles came along and saved us.
TopPopper 20th Aug 2016		CD Album David Brent And Foregone Conclusion - Life On The Road (2016)	Not sure about the downloads - I got them, but the site said something about this being a Sainsburys promotion. I did get my copy from Sainsburys (£9) so not clear if all buyers would get these. Pleased to see in-store a double vinyl LP edition too (£20). Bonus tracks not included there either.
TopPopper 20th Aug 2016		CD Album David Brent And Foregone Conclusion - Life On The Road (2016)	[YouTube Video]
TopPopper 15th Aug 2016		CD Album Genesis - Nursery Cryme (2007)	[YouTube Video]
TopPopper 15th Aug 2016		CD Album Smokey Robinson And The Miracles - The Ultimate Collection (1998)	[YouTube Video] Everyday language crafted into poems.
TopPopper 5th Aug 2016		CD Album The Smiths - Hatful Of Hollow (1993)	Wow - there's a bit of a lack of Smiths CD albums on the site. Come on Smiths fans - if you've got 'em, let's see 'em. (I'd love to upload a few, but I'm away tomorrow for a couple of weeks.) These Things Take Time.
TopPopper 2nd Aug 2016		CD Album Paul McCartney - Pure McCartney (2016)	Where's "Waterfalls"? Got to be one of his best - better than "Heart of the Country", anyway.
TopPopper 6th May 2016		CD Album The Beach Boys - Pet Sounds (2001)	Here it is, folks. [YouTube Video]
TopPopper 6th May 2016		CD Album Smokey Robinson And The Miracles - The Tears Of A Clown (1991)	My favourite Smokey Robinson track. [YouTube Video]
TopPopper 9th Mar 2016		CD Album Beatles - Off White (1993)	I would do, Greg, but I'm not sure what the label is. You've listed it as Red Phantom - to me it looks like the label is Off White, and the album title is Live at Abbey Road. What do you think?
TopPopper 6th Mar 2016		CD Album Gilbert O'Sullivan - Latin Ala G! (2015)	Gilbert is a very accomplished songwriter. Few have suffered such a difficulty with image as him, but ignoring the old pudding basin haircuts etc, he was/is a genuine talent.
TopPopper 19th Feb 2016		CD Album Robyn Hitchcock - Love From London (2013)	My fave on this CD... [YouTube Video]
TopPopper 7th Feb 2016		CD Album Radiohead - OK Computer (1997)	[YouTube Video] One of the great recordings of this era.
