BEATLEJOHN 15th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Things Go Better With... (1985)	This is more like 1985...John
BEATLEJOHN 13th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Colin Blunstone - Planes (1977)	[YouTube Video]
BEATLEJOHN 13th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Colin Blunstone - Planes (1977)	[YouTube Video]
BEATLEJOHN 11th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick And Tich - Greatest Hits (1967)	Thanks dddbmt!..Interesting...considering the "If Music Be The Food Of Love"....Lp should have the original version!...Love the Canadian labels though!...John
BEATLEJOHN 4th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Peter, Paul And Mary - Ten Years Together (1971)	Added images of a 1980s Kinney pressing...John
BEATLEJOHN 4th Apr 2018		Vinyl Album The Pink Floyd - The Best Of The Pink Floyd (1970)	I'm surprised this collection wasn't originally issued (MFP?/Starline?) in the UK...but I assume by this point Pink Floyd had more control over their product...though this was an invaluable source of their early non-Lp singles!!...(Great cover too!) John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Laura Nyro And Labelle - Gonna Take A Miracle (1971)	Added PC code labels and Back cover with no prefix...John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Apr 2018		Vinyl Album Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick And Tich - Greatest Hits (1967)	I wonder how much travelling the "US" version of Bend It has made around the globe?...John
BEATLEJOHN 1st Apr 2018		Vinyl Album The Dukes Of Stratosphear - 25 O'Clock (2010)	He signed my original copy as "Sir John Johns"...Colin and Dave did likewise as their alter (altar?) egos also!...John
BEATLEJOHN 30th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Laura Nyro - New York Tendaberry (1969)	Added mistakenly printed original design front cover (with CS code) from 1975/6...(an original 1968 slick would have a KCS code),,,this had PC labels inside....John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Nilsson - A Little Touch Of Schmilsson In The Night (1973)	Added 1975 revisions...Prefix change, Cover/labels left side inner spread revision...etc........John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Beatles - 1962-1966 [The Red Album] (2017)	Strange that the labels use the same font and layout as the 1973 US pressings...John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Nilsson - Son Of Schmilsson (1972)	Added both sides of poster/Lyrics...John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Nilsson - Aerial Ballet (1968)	Added 1969/70 pre "dynaflex" orange labels...John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Moody Blues - Out Of This World (1979)	Added (slightly) alternate labels (and different pressing rings)....John
BEATLEJOHN 28th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Various Artists - Multiplication Rock (1973)	Soundtrack from the first season of "Schoolhouse Rock"..all the tracks are in stereo (though some are missing some sound effects found in the videos)...too bad the soundtracks didn't continue to the future series (Grammar, America and Science Rock)...this album was eventualy re-issued on CD by Rhino under the whole Schoolhouse Rock umbrella.........John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Monkees - Monkee Flips (1984)	Added images...John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Monkees - The Birds, The Bees & The Monkees (1985)	Added covers, labels and sticker...John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Monkees - Head (1968)	Not all the other tracks are incidental music (in fact some tracks are a mix of movie dialogue or incidental music).....if you want to get picky...track A7 (Gravy) is just Davy saying " ...And I'd like a glass of cold gravy with a hair in it please!"......should that get a Monkees credit?....John (PS added first pressing back cover ...no RE)
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Monkees - The Monkees' Headquarters (1967)	Added first press labels (track B7 credited incorrectly as "Mickey")....John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Modern Lovers - The Modern Lovers (1976)	Added original (independent) back cover and labels....this is definitely one of those albums I heard in the store and immediately bought...(also, considering it was issued at the start of the Punk-era)...amazingly of some major FM stations in the New York area were playing "Roadrunner" in heavy rotation.....It wound up being quite a letdown for those who went to see Richman in 1977 and find a quiet minstrel with an acoustic (virtually unamplified) band playing what sounded like children's songs.............According to Jerry Harrison (later talking Heads) and David Robinson (later Cars), Jonathan refused to stay in a "heavy" band so by 1973 they both had left the group (still it's a great album)..................John
BEATLEJOHN 27th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Chad Mitchell Trio - Mighty Day On Campus (1961)	Added cover with hype sticker and alternate labels...John...(Brooklyn College on the front cover!......Jim (Roger) McGuinn on the front cover!)
BEATLEJOHN 21st Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick And Tich - Greatest Hits (1967)	I'm kind of surprised to see the US compilation (with the addition of "Okay" and "Hard to Love You") issued in New Zealand!.......John
BEATLEJOHN 21st Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Laura Nyro - The First Songs (1969)	Added front cover sticker and alternate set of labels..John
BEATLEJOHN 20th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Rolling Stones - The Rolling Stones, Now! (1965)	Vinyl Fan, your copy is a first pressing with the hitting the blind man over the head for bread paragraph that was deleted on subsequent pressings (it's toward the top of the right column)....John
BEATLEJOHN 20th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Roger Miller - Golden Hits (1968)	Added images for the eleven track version...(I've dated this 1968 even though it has the mono number on the back cover, I've never seen an eleven track version, and the Smash label changes by mid 1968 with the addition of a Mercury logo)....John
BEATLEJOHN 19th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album The Partridge Family - The World Of The Partridge Family (1974)	Arista AL 4021...just found out about it!...thanks...John
BEATLEJOHN 14th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Squeeze - Six Squeeze Songs Crammed Into One-Ten-Inch Record (1979)	Added labels...John
BEATLEJOHN 14th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Sparks - 2 Originals Of Sparks (1976)	Added this interesting double set...The booklet has many facts, photos, clippings and trivia (and comments by Ron and Russell) about the "pre-Island" US band...as the first two US Bearsville Lp's were still in print... this double-album did not come out in the States...The front and back image is from the deleted "Halfnelson" Lp, the image of the "Woofer" album is actually the back cover of the original Lp...and this is not the only time where the images were transposed (but it is the first!)...John
BEATLEJOHN 14th Mar 2018		Vinyl Album Jimmy Soul - If You Wanna Be Happy (1988)	When this Lp came out it was the first appearance of "If You Wanna Be Happy" in stereo (albeit twintrack...all vocals to one side..music to the other side)..later on it has popped up with better (okay..it sounds like three tracks) stereo with Jimmy's lead vocal in the center....John
