iiuc, some superb golden guinea lps were the first uk (& eu, commonwealth excluding canadada, etc, as appropriate) releases of the albums, and not "mid-price budget label reissues": but although lps released on the golden guinea label cost only the same as two-to-three singles, more-or-less, they didn't compete in our minds the way you might now expect them to've: money was an awful lot tighter then, than it has been for most teenagers and young adults, most of the time since the late sixties through the sainted same hilda margaret's & john mini-minor major's recessions, and since then through this latest diddy david "porkypieminister" cameron's & tessa "deranged dalek" nay's deliberately-chosen depression; only one or two of yr hmbl srppnt.'s friends could regularly buy a single a week, every week - lots, like me°, couldn't even afford two a month, not for certain. . .

° - that was why discovering the world of record corpses' deletions seemed like heaven
