agnillev SUBS 14th May 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumFlash And The Pan - Flash And The Pan (1979) | Images of the "frisbee" cover added.
|
agnillev SUBS 28th Apr 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Easybeats - Holding On (1969) | Added a set of promotional labels. My record (no cover) came with an inner sleeve and a set of forms from the testpressing stages.
|
agnillev SUBS 15th Apr 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumFlash And The Pan - Early Morning Wake Up Call (1984) | My record and cover don't match if you look at the cat#.
Could be a reissue cover with an old stock record inside. Or just replacing a bad record and a bad cover.
|
agnillev SUBS 7th Mar 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumFlash And The Pan - Lights In The Night (1980) | Added a full set of images. The front-cover is slightly different from the one already here.
|
agnillev SUBS 6th Mar 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumFlash And The Pan - Flash And The Pan (1979) | Also released with a PE prefix (same number).
Discogs lists it as a reissue, the JE prefix being the original.
|
agnillev SUBS 20th Feb 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumFlash And The Pan - Flash And The Pan (1979) | Test-pressing labels added. This record came in a cover with a slightly different back. "Printed in England by Robert Stace" is missing and the boxed ©1979 Ensign etc. is bigger.
|
agnillev SUBS 3rd Feb 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Easybeats - The Shame Just Drained (1982) | Also released on white vinyl. Picture added.
|
agnillev SUBS 2nd Feb 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Easybeats - Holding On (1969) | Added a set of slightly different labels. There's P.1969 printed below Made in Germany.
|
agnillev SUBS 25th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Easybeats - Friday On My Mind (1967) | Added a set of labels with a different layout.
|
agnillev SUBS 23rd Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Easybeats - It's 2 Easy (1982) | Added another set of labels. Don't know which came first.
|
agnillev SUBS 9th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Fandango! (2006) | The test-pressing uses BSK-3271 as cat#. This can also be found in the runout grooves.
The commercial copy has them scratched out in the grooves with the new number added.
|
agnillev SUBS 7th Jan 2023 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Raw (2022) | Catalogue number and barcode for black vinyl only, although the cat# also appears on the spine of the covers for the coloured vinyl.
Coloured vinyl cat# / barcode:
tangerine: 538795421 / 4050538795424
ghostly grey: 538808621 / 4050538808629

To be continued

agnillev SUBS 3rd May 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Afterburner (1986) | Missing images added.
My copy comes with the WB Lines label, but when I check Discogs, most Yugoslavian versions of Afterburner come with the WB Burbank label, like Eliminator
edit: WB Burbank labels added 11-1-2023
|
agnillev SUBS 1st May 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Afterburner (1985) | This album was also released as a "Limited Edition" Bonus Pack, which came with a free Sleeping Bag 45.
|
agnillev SUBS 18th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Eliminator (1983) | The reason I listed it as UK is not the fact that it's made there (I posted my comment because the label doesn't give clue about its origin), but the absence of the bilingual rimtext and the rights society. Especially the latter suggests a release off mainland Europe.
If the cover determines the pressing, you should add the Irish pressings under the European flag as well. They use the same standard Europe sleeve.
Bar codes weren't used everywhere during the early days of Eliminator. Southern Europe didn't rely on "European" records, they pressed their own.
|
agnillev SUBS 17th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Eliminator (1983) | The runout stamping reveals that this is a UK pressing (▽420 V, pressed at PRS Ltd, lacquer cut at Trident Studios). Comes with a standard European cover.
|
agnillev SUBS 17th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Eliminator (1984) | Sorry, B label only. My copy has the same label on both sides.
|
agnillev SUBS 16th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Eliminator (1983) | Scandinavia doesn't have its own list, so I add the NCB scans here (they are a part of Europe after all).
|
agnillev SUBS 14th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - El Loco (1981) | Records with the grey "ghost logo" labels are probably released in 1984 or 1985.
|
agnillev SUBS 10th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - The Best Of ZZ Top (1980) | I have two slightly different versions of this record. The version with the French code SE (circled) on the backcover is made of thin, flexible vinyl. The matrix # are different, but the labels are identical.
The thin record only plays the last minute of La Grange, where the other record has the complete song on it.
|
agnillev SUBS 4th Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Tejas (1976) | Added the scan of a promotional sheet of paper that was inserted in the cover of my copy.
|
agnillev SUBS 3rd Apr 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Fandango! (1978) | One of my copies comes with a cover where the yellow rim of "Fandango!" is changed into red. Don't know if it was done on purpose or by mistake.
|
agnillev SUBS 18th Feb 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Tres Hombres (1973) | Looks like there was a little change to the label design when pressing this record. Somewhere during the process they ran out of one side, which was replaced by a new one and they continued using up the old labels for the other side.
Anyway, my copy has the speed mentioned on both labels, side 2 image is added. There is also a version that's missing the speed on both sides.
|
agnillev SUBS 9th Feb 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Rio Grande Mud (1980) | Added two more back cover images. The 3 covers all have a different French price code: WE 341, WE 361 and WE 381 (the one with the barcode). Also added the different set of labels that came with the latter.
|
agnillev SUBS 8th Feb 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - Rio Grande Mud (1972) | The front cover looks Canadian, judging by the brown London logo at the corner. All US covers I've seen so far come with a black logo.
|
agnillev SUBS 7th Feb 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - ZZ Top's First Album (1978) | The version with the "ghost logo's" labels was released after 1983. That's the year this type of label was introduced.
|
agnillev SUBS 6th Feb 2022 | | Vinyl AlbumZZ Top - ZZ Top's First Album (1971) | Added another set of labels.
In my collection I have two versions of the record which has the MX# with the AL suffix (Audio Lakewood) just below the Stereophonic bar. The regular version and a copy with the side one label on both sides.
