20th Dec 2024		Vinyl Album
Led Zeppelin - Led Zeppelin		I finally had the opportunity to do a side by side comparison of the original turquoise/cyan cover with a later 1970s pressing, see the new pic. Thank you to Ben at The Little Record Shop for allowing me to take pics.
My idea was to use photoshop to analyse colouring on the back cover sepia style photo, to see if cyan is in the mix. Unfortunately results were inconclusive, cyan registers very low on selected areas of both covers and may only be there due to the lighting when the pics were taken.
However, you may be interested to see how far the image degraded after only a few years. On the original cyan sleeve the back cover (right) has a nicely clear and detailed image, whereas on the later pressing (mid 1970s) the image is faded and lacking in detail.
On my own early pressing the back photo image looks identical to that on the cyan sleeve, it is clear and detailed, ...which is a disappointment as I was hoping to see at least some degradation in the quality.

The Banana Splits (1968 - 1970)		The British version differs to the USA version with different running times per episode, they might have chopped the segments and rearranged them into different shows, There were a lot of comments about this on Amazon when the series first got issued on dvd.

In case you are not aware, there is a Banana Splits horror movie which was made a few years back. The lovable bunch are now animatronics which go on the rampage after learning that their show is to be axed. I don't think it was a successful transition.

The Singing Ringing Tree - Network		Filmed in a widescreen eye-popping saturated colour palette.
During a trip to Berlin many years back, and while looking for rare DVDs, I discovered that this is just one of at least 2 dozen 'fairytale features' made by the same East German production company (DEFA Stiftung) in 1950s-1970s. I would have bought many of the available DVDs but unfortunately only 3 had an English language option, including The Golden Goose and The Devil's Three Golden Hairs.
