Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Iggy Pop - Candy (1990)	I believe that some releases billed "Candy" as a duet with Kate (B-52s) Pierson; this one doesn't mention her. #67 UK charts, though it did better elsewhere (it was his biggest US single ever, for example). Colour banding on silver CD is a scanning artefact.
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single ZZ Top - Pincushion (Album Version) (1994)	I don't suppose metal box editions, PiL notwithstanding, are common enough that we need a new format like "Tin"... #15 UK chart (well, the regular edition was, I presume).
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Pulp - A Little Soul (1998)	Scans added. #22 UK chart.
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - My House (1994)	Final single from Formaldehyde LP. #29 UK chart. Seems to have been the first release for "Discotheque Wreck", which was shortly to turn up as a track on How To Make Friends And Influence People. Don't ask me what the cover's about; I could never "see" those magic eye images!
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Josephine (1998)	Trailer single for Shaving Peaches album; reached #23 UK chart.
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Pretend Best Friend (1994)	Added all images (including the prints, which are about the size of Kodachrome slides so as to fit in the jewel case). #25 UK chart.
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Easy (1996)	Another one from Regular Urban Survivors. #12 UK chart.
Klepsie 4th Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Bad Actress (1996)	#10 UK charts (the second top ten single from Regular Urban Survivors).
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - III Wishes (Radio Edit) (1999)	This was widely condemned as the release which killed Terrorvision chartwise and led to their split with EMI; I always loved it, myself...
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Alice What's The Matter? ("Oh Yeah" Mix) (1994)	Track 1 remixed by Chris Sheldon Track 2 remixed by Pop Will Eat Itself Track 3 from BBC Radio 1FM session
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Terrorvision - Middleman (1994)	Couple of unexpected but good covers (Iggy Pop, Cheap Trick) on this one.
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single The Montrose Avenue - Where Do I Stand? (1998)	Briefly trendy Berkshire band; this was their highest charting single at #38 UK. The postcard is tucked in behind the CD inside the digipak, hence the shape and hole in the middle.
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Joy Zipper - Out Of The Sun (Radio Edit) (2004)	The plug sticker says "release date 21st June 2004"; I assume that's for stock copies, and that the May date on the sleeve and CD is that of this promo's production. The rainbow effect on the CD is a scanning artefact, sorry. In reality it's silver. I believe the composer credits should be "Vinny Cafiso, Tabitha Tindale"; they also co-produced the album these tracks are lifted from, with Kevin Shields and David Holmes.
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Aberfeldy - Heliopolis By Night (2004)	Stock copy CD also had second track "Take It Away". No producer or composer credits on this promo; producer was Jim Sutherland and composer Riley Briggs. Reached #66, UK charts, and was NME Single of the Week.
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Caesars - (I'm Gonna) Kick You Out (Clean Version) (2005)	Originally released as early as 1998 in the band's native Sweden; this edition (presumably) issued as a hurried follow-up to their big 2005 UK hit with "Jerk It Out".
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Razorlight - America (2006)	Stock copies also had tracks "Teenage Logic" and "Fine". Went to #1, UK charts, 1 week (8 Oct 2006).
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single The Charlatans - Blackened Blue Eyes (2006)	Stock copies also had "Arise Arise" on the CD1 and "Cry Cry Cry", "Don't You Worry" and the video for "Blackened Blue Eyes" on the CD2.
Klepsie 2nd Nov 2013		CD Single Weezer - Beverly Hills (2005)	UK stock copies also contained 2002 live takes of "Island in the Sun" and "Butterfly", plus a CD-ROM version of "Beverly Hills".
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013		CD Single Kingmaker - 10 Years Asleep (1993)	See also CD1. (Do these count as 'linked releases' for 45worlds purposes?)
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013		CD Single Kingmaker - 10 Years Asleep (1993)	Their other joint best UK chart showing, #15.
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013		CD Single Kingmaker - The Killjoy Was Here EP (1992)	Their joint best UK chart performance at #15.
Klepsie 29th Oct 2013		CD Single Kingmaker - Queen Jane EP (1993)	Added a couple of missing scans for this EP. UK chart #29.
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013		CD Single Big Hand - Wrong & Right EP (2005)	Self-released EP from "disco-ska-pop" band (website here).
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013		CD Single Kickstarter - Fight Back (2011)	First self-release from a band who were called that well before the crowd-funding website provided a cart for every unsigned band to jump on. Full band biog on their Facebook page.
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013		CD Single Levellers - Celebrate (1997)	Scans added (apologies for the CD, which my scanner didn't seem to like). #28 UK chart.
Klepsie 28th Oct 2013		CD Single Levellers - Hope St. (1995)	First single from Zeitgeist album; #12 UK chart.
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single The Wonder Stuff - Full Of Life (Happy Now) (Dignity Mix) (1993)	Remixes of three tracks from Construction for the Modern Idiot.
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single The Wonder Stuff - Full Of Life (Happy Now) (1993)	Second single from Construction for the Modern Idiot album. UK charts #28.
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single Dodgy - The Big Funky CD Box (1994)	Very fancy and rather fun packaging on this one; hope it's clear from the images which scans go where in the whole thing. #38 UK charts (later remixed reissue made #19). Track one from Homegrown album, other three appear to only have been issued on this release.
Klepsie 25th Oct 2013		CD Single Turin Brakes - Pain Killer (Radio Edit) (2003)	Their best selling single release to date (#5 UK charts). From the LP Ether Song (where it had the longer title "Pain Killer (Summer Rain)").
